7 Road Trip Photos We Should Have Taken (and then Posted to Facebook)

    Road Trip Photos
  1. A photo of Emma hitting Jenna in the head with her Tootsie Pop. (Because Jenna was annoying her.)
  2. A photo of the floorboard landing location of one Nokia 2300 (circa 2004) propelled by me, from the driver’s seat, at Jake and Jenna, who were seated in the 3rd row of our Expedition. (Because they WOULD NOT stop their constant bickering and arguing. For the record, I missed.)
  3. A photo of my lobster-red, hugely swollen feet in flip flops. (Because who remembers to sunscreen their feet for a visit to Santa Monica Beach on a windy, cloudy, barely-80-degrees-Fahrenheit day?)
  4. A photo of me in a wheelchair, being pushed around Disneyland by my Aunt Patty. (Because my feet were in so much pain (see number 3) that there was NO WAY I would have been able to walk around the park for twelve hours.)
  5. A close-up of my bangs after having them in a pink foam roller overnight. (Because I wanted to look especially fancy for our viewing of the sunrise at the Grand Canyon.)
  6. A photo of my brother, flat on his back in the floor of an Arizona gift shop, wearing an Indian headdress.(Because there was a poorly visible two-inch step which he backed into. I can’t really explain the headdress.)
  7. A photo of my brother’s souvenir Ghirardelli white chocolate golf balls, floating waterlogged in our green Coleman ice chest. (Because who knew the ice would melt somewhere between San Francisco and Tulsa on the trip home?)

Thanks to Samsung for sponsoring my post today. Samsung is taking their compact, WiFi-enabled Samsung SH100 on a month-long road trip across America in the month of May! The mobile team is going to record all the amazing people they meet and the fascinating places they visit with the SH100, and the best photos and videos will be shared on the Samsung USA Facebook page.

Here’s a super fun video with details about the Samsung SH100 Coast-to-Coast Photo Post Campaign (running time: 57 seconds).

    Ha! I tried taking ice cream in a cooler from Tulsa to LA. My face upon opening the cooler was a photo opportunity missed!

    I am constantly trying to throw things back to the third row of our Expedition and failing horribly. I blame bad angles from the front seat.

    I think I was present during most of these moments!

    Ah yes, tops of feet in the sun – second only to bridge of nose and (in my case) top of head.

    A good tip after getting really burned, is to drink half a bottle of something alcoholic and sleep until the pain wears off.
