Yesterday is a history,

tomorrow is a mystery,

only today is a gift,

that's why we called it present.

昨日已成历史,明天还是未知。唯有当下是恩赐,谨以“礼物”称之。

魔幻的2020,没来得及去加勒比,没抽出空去赏樱花,疫情的靴子比预料中落得更早一些。果宝的brick and mortar学习猝不及防嘎然而止,美国校园生活仅仅历时77天便划上了句号。三月开始lock down,上了一段并非严格意义的网课,结束了不足一个月的ESOL课,日历刷刷地翻到六月底。从最初的忐忑不安如临大敌,渐渐对数据麻木泰然处之。不念过往,不惧未来,现在就出发吧!

本次旅行历时37天,行程1.1万英里,经过乔治亚—田纳西—肯塔基—印第安纳—伊利诺伊—密苏里—堪萨斯—OK—德克萨斯—新墨西哥—科罗拉多—Nebraska—南达科他—怀俄明—蒙大拿—艾达荷—犹他—内华达—加州—亚利桑那—路易斯安娜—密西西比—阿拉巴马共23州,足迹遍及猛犸洞/圣路易斯拱门/大沙丘/落基山/恶地/死亡谷/魔鬼塔/黄石/大提顿/锡安/布莱斯/圆顶礁/拱门/峡谷地/大峡谷/石化森林共16个国家公园和scottbluff、纪念碑谷和总统山3个monument。

全程花费约3700刀(油钱640 住宿约1300 修车保养550 门票180 生活费780 超速罚款250),一天100刀比东南亚日均花费(1000人民币)还少。考虑到疫情期间营地比酒店更安全,酒店住宿仅5晚支出250(盐湖城58—拉斯维加斯45*2—佩吉47—达拉斯54),其余全为营地,其中KOA17晚约700,其他营地14晚330

掐指一算,距离2021有且仅有16天,两天凑一篇,能赶在庚子年翻篇之前给美国西游记划上句号。此刻不由想起那首《昨日重现》,那些千山万水,那些风雨兼程,终究变成记忆里最美妙的音符,最动听的歌曲,午夜梦回,仍时时在心中回荡

Those were such happy times

And not so long ago

How I wondered where they'd gone

But they're back again

Just like a long-lost friend

All the songs I love so well

Looking back on how it was in years gone by

And the good times that I had

Makes today seem rather sad

So much has changed

It was songs of love that I'd sing to them

And I memorize each word

Those old melodies

Still sound so good to me

As they melt the years away
