Full Trip Plan

Hello everyone! This post is going to be kind of boring for the majority of everyone haha... But I just fleshed out the full details of our plan to drive from Durham to Seattle. I am posting it here so we can send it to those who will be giving us accommodations along the way AND just for curious nose-y people!! Also, I'm looking for anyone's suggestions for things to see along the way, and things to do in Denver, SLC, or Eugene.

 We are still waiting on some important things like finding a home (Brad is flying out there May 2-5 to take care of that), buying a plane ticket for our cat, reserving U-Pack moving cubes, etc. However, since today was my LAST day of class I will have a lot more time very soon to get these things underway (though I am still finishing projects before graduation, blerg).
