My new travel assignment is in Sacramento CA for 2 months! I was really excited but a little hesitant that I would get canceled again like the last time I drove all the way to Cali from Texas. But this time the job is a GO! I started with orientation on July 3rd .
My mom and I drove from Dallas to Sacramento in 5 days. The trip totaled just over 2200 miles and we were super busy every moment. We visited many national parks & monuments.
