The Final Posts!! :)

This trip was the best time of my life so far. I loved it a lot because I got to spend time with my family. I also got to visit my family that live in other states. My favorite place was New York City. All the lights, traffic and people. DC was my second favorite place because the education was good to know. Living in the camper was ok but at times it got small. I had a fun time at Disney World, on the beaches, and playing in all the different pools. After 6 months I was ready to be back to Kremmling to play with my friends and sleep in my bed.

“The Big Trip,” as it is called to me was the best thing that has ever happened to me. I won't know how special it really is until I get older and I will be more grateful for the trip. My favorite place was New York City. I felt like I could live there some day, at least for a while.  During the whole trip I just wanted to get to Florida so I could swim in the ocean. When we eventually got to Florida, the water wasn’t very warm at all. That was a bummer, but it was ok in the end. I finally got to swim in the ocean in Mexico with my friends. The history that we learned would fill up 5 text books. That just shows how much we learned. It was so fun just being with my family constantly for a long period of time. It was also really awesome seeing everyone that we saw. Am I glad that I am home? Yes, but no. I missed the house and a few friends, but I am sad that our family doesn’t get to spend as much time together as we did on the trip. I hope that everyone enjoyed the blog.

Wow, where do I start?  The last 6 months have been an incredible experience.  God truly blessed our family to be able to make this trip.  The best part by far was spending all this time together.  Even living in the small space for so long was not bad at all.  It was a trip that I will treasure forever.  I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!I  I would like to thank all the blog followers we had during our adventure.  It was fun to read your comments about our craziness! 
     To Dennis, Shawn and Jeff Nash – Thank you for helping to keep things running smoothly in the businesses.
     To Karen and Janice -- Thank you for all you did to make this trip possible for us and for “keeping the ship afloat!”  J  We appreciated it more than words can describe.
And, to my wonderful husband, Jeff – Thank you for having the vision and the guts to do this.  I love you!                           **Sara

Well, all good things must come to end. That’s an understatement on what’s transpired over the last 6 months. What an amazing trip. We couldn’t have done it without our great staff back in Kremmling taking care of our businesses. It was a superior performance, kudos to them.
It was nice to see old friends on our trip, thanks for the opening up your homes to the Miller family and making our time with you special. And to our new friends. Wow, it’s always nice to make new friends. Looking forward to the continued friendships with all of you in the years to come. Thanks to the long lost relatives that we had the opportunity to meet for the first time or forty plus years. It’s so easy to drift away over the years. Life has definitely changed from when I was a kid. It seemed that we always had aunts, uncles and cousins coming to visit each summer. So if you have the opportunity, reach out to your to kin folk. Life is truly short.
To our MillersAmazingTrip blogspot followers, thank you so much for your comments. We truly enjoyed having you with us on our trip. For the rest of you that followed us, hopefully we inspired you to maybe one day do something like this one day with your family. For me it was probably one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. Thirty six states, nearly 17,000 miles, cost priceless.                                   ^Jeff

  4. Congratulations! You've all had a life-event you'll never forget and you're certainly a closer family for it. It must be nice, tho, to get back into the routine, in your own beds, all that--but always knowing (for real) that it doesn't have to stay that way! Lovely to see you all, too.
