Breakfast in Denver

Breakfast is by far my favorite meal. On my road trip, I had the time to get a nice breakfast in Denver. I asked a friend who lives in Denver where I should go. She said I had to check out Toast and try their pancakes. She did not steer me wrong. It was a very tough decision on which flavor to choose, so I decided to go big and get the pancake flight. It is 2 smaller pancakes of 4 different kinds. I chose Lemon Blueberry, Bananas Foster, Carrot Cake and Gravy cakes. I am not a food critique so I will show you what they look like instead of trying to describe how amazing they were.

In-N-Out

Before leaving California, I had to have one last trip to In-N-Out. If you have never been to California then you might not be aware of how amazing In-N-Out is. I am normally not a fan of fast food hamburgers, but In-N-Out is a very different story. The only items on the menu are a hamburger, cheeseburger, a double burger, french fries and milkshakes. That is it. They keep to just a few items that they do very well. I usually get the #1. A double double with cheese and grilled onions. There is a secret menu where you can get your fries animal style. Why it is called this I do not know, but order this and your fries will arrive covered in thousand island, grilled onions and melted cheese. Not easy on the arteries, but o so good. I will miss you In-N-Out, but my waistline will not.

The return to North Carolina

2,8oo miles and 5,000 pictures later I have finished my cross country trip to Charlotte. My old college roommate, Dan, and I took 6 days to do this trip. Dan currently lives in Seattle and flew down to LAX. I picked him up and we headed to Zion National Park in Utah. On the second day we drove from Zion to Denver, Colorado. On our way we stopped in Arches National Park for a few hours. The third day we used to explore Denver and a tour of the Coors plant. After a day of relaxing in Denver we drove to Kansas City. The next day took us through 5 states ending in Knoxville, Tennessee. The final and shortest leg brought us home to Charlotte.
