After I mentioned our near cross-country road trip last week, you might be wondering how we passed more than forty hours behind the wheel. We filmed a lot of it with our trusty Flip video camera, then spent the weekend editing that footage into a short musical montage of our road-trip-on-steroids.
If you’re curious and want to come along, here’s what you’ll find in the video:
- Some questionable drive-thru choices
- A little behind-the-wheel dancing
- Grade-A nerd behavior in the form of a geography-based driving game
- Sherry in bed with another woman (a staged moment)
- The obligatory burger footage
- Absolutely no footage of Sherry driving (because it didn’t happen)
- Fast-food inspired decorating ideas (we’re not vouching for their taste)
- Sherry with her hair down, for those who’ve been asking
- Visits to cultural attractions—well, more like a stop at a Pottery Barn Outlet
- A sneak peek of our time with the Bowers and scenes from my cousin’s wedding, which we’ll share more of soon
So, without further ado, enjoy the virtual road trip below…
We’d also love to hear about your summer travels. Do you have any memorable road trip stories or videos edited in iMovie? Have photos posted anywhere we can see? Share your tips and links—long live long drives!
