Today was bittersweet as we officially left Seattle. After one last run around Green Lake, Hillary's last chat and coffee with Sara (for a little while), and D.B.'s visit with his grandma, we hit the road with the car we just picked up this morning from the shop. The trip to eastern Washington was uneventful with the exception of D.B.'s geography pop quiz. Go ahead and try to name all of the state capitols, it's harder than you think.

Sanders, which leads us to our first random roadtrip trivia question:
