Well, it’s September, so it must be time to take the rig out on the road. On this trip we hope to visit friends and check on our house in Colorado, fish with Glen’s former partners in Wyoming, and visit as many national parks and monuments in the Dakotas and Montana as we can while on the road. Since we had a target date to get to our friends’ house, this first part of the trip was pretty compressed, making stops in Idaho and Utah, and then traveling into Colorado. We joked that it was quite generous of the National Park Service to put so many national monuments so close to the interstates we traveled on, but I guess it makes sense. The natural and cultural sites we visited either caused or used natural lines of communication that later became paved roads — and ultimately interstates.
As usual, Deb and I shared the driving and Deb only got seriously concerned once as we attempted an overland “shortcut.” Lots to see, do, and learn!
