I'll be driving cross country for the next few days with my dog (she's a siberian husky). This is about the 10th time I've coast to coast.

I'm taking the northern route this time. I'll be picking up 3 new states (Idaho, Montana and South Dakota) as part of my goal of visiting all fifty. I'm at 43 now, I'll be at 46 when the trip is over (I'll still be missing Alabama, Kentucky, North Dakota and Tennessee).

I've done some dashboard time lapse in the past, I'll try to do it again this trip.

I did this one a few years back

The time lapse is very cool. Have a safe trip.

Fun!

Ya know, you could save time, and wear & tear on the camera, if instead of time lapse, you actually drove that fast!

Today's leg is Wells NV to Jackson WY. It's a short leg but there's snow up in Idaho and Montana right now, the weather may be dicey.
