1930-Road Trip-Conclusion.jpg

Here it is, at last, the end of the journey. Aunt Ellen wrote a "Conclusion" page that included their total expense for travel, gasoline, oil, and total mileage driven. At the end she penciled in "Finis" with a flourish. They Left Yakima, Washington 22 September 1930 and returned 29 December 1930. Traveled through 17 states. Visited family in Michigan, Ohio, and Kansas.

“Conclusion
The total cost was $153.04. Total miles driven was 11,492 miles. We used 402 gallons of gas. That is as near as can be figured. Used 28 quarts of oil."

Eleven flat tires with four of those being on Christmas day.

Thank you for looking, and thank you to everyone who rode along on this journey and shared a little piece of history.
