Our Trip by the Numbers

Tyler's Grandpa Epp died on the 14th and his funeral was held in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on the 18th. Tyler, the kids and I made the long trek to meet Tyler's Grandma and celebrate his grandfather. We're just feeling like we're getting our heads back on straight so in the meanwhile, here are the numbers of our trip.
This is our final mileage tally from the trip. We saw it start anew two times so the final mileage was 2798.2 miles.
And this is how long we spent driving.
Here's a quick rundown of all the numbers:
5 1/2 days = 132 hours
2798.2 miles
49hours, 3 minutes
4 states + 1 province
4 different beds
2 countries
2 hotels (1 pool)
1 passport stamp
147 gallons of gas
1 new state + 1 new province for 4 people
4 times to unload/reload the van
3 stops at Tim Horton's (a Canadian coffee/donut shop)
2 stops at the Mall of America
7 Canadian candy bars
15 potty breaks
And our lowest observed temperature = -14 degrees F
