So we decided to make the big drive with a 1 year old . . . and it wasn't at all as bad as I expected! It's like she knew we were on vacation. Fiona saw cliff dwellings, a cave, mountains galore, a gorge and we even got to see some of Chip's friends which was the real highlight. We felt like that was where we belonged. I hope so one day . . .
