Do you have a tablet or netbook to keep in one of the bags? What are we going to do without you? Just think of all the reading you'll have to catch up on if you can't stay connected. I miss one day and the VSMS is 8 pages ahead of me. You'll be traveling through some awesome country side, so you should really enjoy it.
One of my friends does a lot of long distance road trips - he got one of those little helmet mounted cameras so we can relive his trips. Pretty cool. Looking forward to your follow-up stories.
