An Introduction

So this blog is around because Nick and I have a plan. A plan to cross the United States, from coast to coast, in 10 days. By train.

If our budgets allow, we want to get across the country using a USA rail pass during our spring break, 2010. We're still working out the details of our route, so if you'd like to help us out with timing and such, be our guest.

Conditions:

We have to leave from Washington DC no earlier than a Thursday evening

We'd like to ride on the City of New Orleans at some point

We want to take the Lake Shore Limited at some point

We have a total of eight rides.

Join us as we prepare to undertake this grand adventure!
