On the Road Again
Welcome to our vacation!

The cast: Shelley (me, 23), Josh (brother, 16), Mom (take a guess), Dad (go with your instinct here).

Our destinations: Nashville, TN; Panama City, FL; Orlando, FL; Hilton Head, SC; Atlanta, GA; Memphis, TN, with the starting and ending location just outside of Chicago, IL.

The timeline: January 14-January 29, 2005.

The notes: You'll notice that I, Shelley, am in very few of the pictures. That's because I brought along my own precious digital camera, and rarely let it leave my hands. I make up for it, however, in words. Also below are my journal entries I posted for my friends, to keep them updated on my adventures. Finally, these albums could not have been made without the brilliant people at ORNJ.net. Their product is remarkable and I highly recommend it.

January 14: Driving to Panama City Beach, with a stopover in Nashville. // Diary entry

January 15-17: Panama City Beach// Diary entries

January 18-22: Walt Disney World// Diary entries

January 23-24, 25-27: Hilton Head and Lake Lanier, combined// Diary entry

January 27-29: Memphis// Diary entry

These represent just a fraction of the photos I took over the 16 days. More albums may follow these. : ) I tried to only post the best ones. I had about 30 additional shots of the beaches, many more of Josh, etc, that were very similar.
