Check me out in front of Washington D.C.’s Jefferson Memorial on the last day of the Cover America Tour road trip last Wednesday. The pink garage sale-bought sunglasses are pretty stylin’, huh?

After three and a half months on the road, I am oh-so-ready to be in one place. So in homage to the nomadic life I led on this health care reporting adventure, I offer a glimpse at some of my most recent facebook status updates (in reverse chronological order):

Pauline is headed back to NYC after 3.5 months.

Pauline is driving on the back of the RV outside of Arlington.

Pauline costs $2255/month to house, feed and keep healthy.

Pauline is enjoying the quiet after the storm in the twin cities.

Pauline just waited on line with Mitt Romney to get into the Xcel center at the RNC.

Pauline is capturing video in North Platte, Nebraska.

Pauline is surrounded by Democrats in Denver.

Pauline is in albuquerque.

Pauline is being followed by bats.

Pauline is sleeping under the red rocks and who-owls of southern Utah.

Pauline just really loves being back in the bay. Even if it’s only for a few days.

Pauline thinks she broke her right pinky toe doing capoeira in Portland. Now the feets are even!

We traversed a total of 17, 620 miles this summer. I’m embarrased to disclose how many miles to the galon “aqua box” ran on. Too bad you can’t report on the American health care crisis and fight global warming at the same time.
