Hi Ken, Your trip looks fab. Just happened upon the site. I am home 2 years this month. Did much of the same but instead of the USA did Africa. I was gone 18 mths and had a blast..One word of advice, be prepared for the head wreck which is "life" when your home. Other than that enjoy every minute, even those shitty ones on a overcrowded bus with someone drooling on your shoulder because they will seem like heaven when its all over.Take Care,Aoife (Irish for Eva by the Way)One last thing have a cold beer on a long beach at sunset for all of us travellers who have done it and would love to do it all again but our wings got clipped!!!!
