THE LONG ROAD HOME
- Thread starter peekingduck
- Start date
1735 miles from campsite to driveway. ?We got in around 4 am EST Monday morning after stopping to sleep a little somewhere in the I states (I think, or was it MO?) ?And then I let Shania drive a little and ended up stopping for lunch in Clarksville, TN (how does she know how to get there??). ?Sat forever outside of Chatanooga since the I-24 bridge was shut down. ?But all and all it was a nice drive.

It's good to hear everyone is getting home safely. 
is that Dallas or Houston time?avz66 said:
We put 3200 miles on ours for this trip. We made a little side trip north of Denver to Rocky Mountain National park, it was worth the extra day and nearly 400 miles! What a great time, I never even checked the mileage just put the gas in her when needed! We met a lot of great members and renewed some old acquaintances and just had a ball!

We are still on the road...
Stayed an extra evening and caught up with Peeking Duck, SoCalCindy, Wind4Power, Teksavy, Supermobile, and CA HIKR for dinner Saturday night... Good food and Great times!!
We left Sunday morning for Billings, Montana to see my sister-in-law and brother-in-law. We left there Tuesday.
Spent some time going through Yellowstone National Park on Tuesday and Wednesday. Also went through Grand Teton and are currently in Jackson Hole, Wyoming!
I would guess our journey home will end sometime this weekend or early next week. Final destination, Long Beach, California.
I will report back our total mileage, etc.

Well I figure we had about 1760 total miles (to Nationals, at Nationals and now finally home from Nationals)... 40 of that on a tow truck. All of them good... well except the tow truck miles!

I know it is not far from Minneapolis to Rapid City, but Sunny Boy and I put on nearly 5000 miles during this trip. We started out going to Oregon and then back to RC on our two week trip. Had a great (maybe a bit of an understatement) time (except for the part about hitting the deer in Oregon.

Well, we made it home! The kids got sick towards the end, so we cut our trip short
Everything made it home in one piece. We put on 4612 miles from door to door!
I think it is time to get rid of the South Dakota bugs all over the front of the AV
Thank you all for the memories! We will never forget!
