On Thursday July 19th we will leave on our longest road trip yet, almost six weeks. Our first stop just to sleep will be somewhere in or around Rocky Point, NC. It will be a long day, but will get us into West Chester, Pa. the next day to visit Steve & Pattie.
Try US 12 from Missoula MT to Lewiston ID. Make sure you go down the gorge on your way to the Pacific Coast Highway. Stay on PCH to Bay area coming out of OR and consider going gong thru Death Valley on your way to Vegas. It will be hot, but We have done it Aug in a Jeep with no top--not the best plan. It makes Vegas feel good when you get there. Monument Valley is neat and go to Canyonlands NP Park since you are hitting Bryce and Zion. Have fun.
What an experience that must have been for you. I've always wanted to go on a cross country roadtrip and with reading your journey, makes me even more eager to plan one. Thanks for sharing it with us!!!!
OUTSTANDING! Great decriptions and vivid dialog of your outstanding trip. Can't wait to take our somewhat simular trip as soon as I retire next wear. Thanks for sharing, B & D.
Gorgeous pics of the places you have been. this helped me in planning my east coast trip. You stayed in Willits, Ca? That is where I grew up and then moved to the East Bay. I sure hope you enjoyed Mendocino County.
Hi, just wanted to comment on your trip, it was certainly a wonderful one. I hope to do the same one day myself.. a good idea to place pins at all the places you would like to see and map it out! Thanks for sharing...
