[Merchantville, NJ 08109 | 10.6 miles]So remarkably, my car is more organized than when I go on a regular weekend camping trip. My back seat is my closet for the next 4 weeks, and all the valuables are in the trunk. Some people questioned why I was taking my small VW Beetle and not renting a larger car, but with gas prices nearing $4 a gallon, I'm glad to be taking my 25.5 mpg average bug.
So I didn't drive to the Atlantic Ocean to be all "official" in my cross-country goal, but I am starting off today from NJ in the tidally-influenced Delaware River watershed (close enough). Soon, I'm off to say goodbye to my parents and sister in central Bucks County, then I head west tomorrow morning.
