We spent the last week of October preparing the driveway and truck for Winter, then drove to Seattle on October 29. We spent a couple of days with Gary's mother, then flew to Japan on November 1. Our trip continued to China and Hong Kong, returning to Seattle November 26 for the drive home, arriving November 28. This brings our total days on the road to 107. The Asia trip will be documented elsewhere if and when Gary gets around to organizing the over 1,000 photos he took.
