Technology Trip

I love technology.
Don't you?
Why do I feel the need to make this declaration right now?
Because I am blogging from my car in the middle of no where... literally somewhere just north of Death Valley.
It is 1:00 in the morning. Jake is driving us to his parents. Usually when we road trip and the kids fall asleep I just get frustrated- there is no light to read by, and I can't sleep due to an over active worry gene that causes me to startle from an almost sleep at every brake, bump, or move that Jake makes as he drives. So I settle for listening to Tom Petty and eating Pringles.
Not tonight though.
Earlier I drove and Jake worked on this computer. Meaning we got to start earlier and will be in a bed by at the latest 2:30 am.
So far this is the greatest trip ever.
Ever since Jake started working exclusively from home about two months ago we have the internet wherever we go. He has officially out fitted himself to be internet capable almost all the time. With this net book- or at the very least his phone.
Which is why we can take a trip for more than a few days.
He can work anywhere now- so we can go anywhere now.
I pretty much love it.
I just checked your blog driving through Baker.
Jumped on facebook, did some online banking, looked at Olympic stats on Yahoo near Tahachapi.
Now I think I might watch the Bachelor episode I missed.
Yup. I pretty much love it.
If only I could upload a picture for you. It was a beautiful day for driving.
The state is so gorgeous. You should have seen the way the snow looked on the red mesas.
