Road Trip on Film


As most of you know, my husband and I drove cross-country from Seattle to New York last month. I've been finding it really difficult to sum up our trip, but I think this little video we made, most of which was shot from a moving car, offers a nice sampling. This is one beautiful country. Also, a buffalo family is the cutest thing ever.

  12. That's a really lovely video. In hindsight, most road trips seem to be a big blur, so it must be nice to be able to re-live your journey. I definitely recognized the badlands and the black hills of South Dakota. My uncle has a cabin up there, so we've made the drive from Oklahoma a few times.

    So glad I found your blog!

  17. What a great video!!!

    (And side note - did you just make it in imovie and then add the song over it, or did you actually remove the audio? I've been wondering how to do that lately).
