Yosemite?

If you hit Oregon I know some nice spots, though one can't accommodate a large RV on the best spots. You'll only like it if you like beautiful lakes, forests, ocean, light houses and good eaten'.

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me

I'm really enjoying your trip. Been stuck at home far too long with everything. Vicarious travel is fun all by itself. I'm even reading the signs, which I probably wouldn't hardly do if I was really there, haha.

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me

Once I knew I was going to turn to the East
I put out the APB of the next towns I might be coming through

A lot of dusty roads
And
You could see by the rocks
A combo of Northern Arizona
And
Southern Utah

Story time

Tyler,
My plan was to go to Mesa Verde
I always thought you lived near Albuquerque
When I looked at you avatar it was really close to where I was going
For the rest of you following along,
I pm’d him yesterday or the day before
Leaving my phone #
The crazy part is, I was in areas where there was no cell service today
And I was getting behind on schedule because I need to be in Wichita on Thursday
So, when I came to that turn off
Mesa Verde
Or
Go straight to save 1/2 a day
I went straight

Never even knew you texted me
Then I’m driving down the road and saw
The green truck
What!!!!

Nice to meet you today
I still can’t believe we bumped into each other

Next stop Shattuck, Oklahoma

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me

It’s funny Eric, there was a set of unusual circumstances that led to that chance meeting. My wife and I both got home late from work and didn’t feel like cooking; dominoes night it was. Next, I don’t normally drive the 72 much during the week but for some reason I decided to take it. Third, I never go to that gas station I was coming out of when I pulled in front of you, I only happened to look down and see I was on E as I was headed past the station and ducked in.

As I was pulling out of the gas station I saw your RV coming and thought “man that looks like it could be Eric, nah... no way” sure enough.... the stars aligned perfectly!
I too enjoyed the few minutes we had to bs. Drive safe my friend, and keep posting up those awesome pictures!

Is there such a thing as the opposite of claustrophobia?

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me

That made me laugh

This is where these threads get fun for me
Looking back at the feedback

I also raced a train today
They basically go 70 mph
And scare the $hit out of anybody
At a RR crossing ( including me)
With their horn blasting

I missed taking a picture of the major pile up (wreck) of about 10 trailers
Or whatever they are called
On the side of the road
Because I was going 75 trying to win
The race
