Evening gentlemen. Finally back home from our two week road trip. We left home in east TN on May 31. First major stop was Dallas/FW. We spent the morning at the stockyards and drove to Amarillo that afternoon with a quick trip to the Oklahoma boarder to add another state. From there we went to the Grand Canyon and stayed inside the park. It was later when we got there but did get up in time for a sunrise picture. Left there around lunch and made it to Huntington Beach, CA where my my wife’s brother lives. Spent the next few days with them doing the LA/Hollywood/Disney/Beach things. It definitely was out of our comfort zone, but we had fun. Left there and went to Yosemite for two days, saw the sights and drive across Tioga pass (9,900+’). From there we drove to Vegas for a cheap room, lol. Then on to Grand Junction Colorado and Wichita Kansas. Mainly just passing through and sightseeing on the way. Everything was booked in Paducah KY and Clarksville TN, but found a place in Oaksomething, KY between the two. Nastiest Hampton inn we have ever stayed and I let them know about it. I just didn’t have it in me to argue at the time. It’s near Fort Campbell and truck stops so I am not sure what I was expecting, lol. Also, with the Army’s birthday and such, there were tons of folks visiting Ft Campbell then. All in all, 14 days, 5,942 miles driven and 14 states total. We saw some amazing places, interesting people, wide open desert, farm country, and 11,000’ passes, but when it comes down to it, nothing is better than home. We were tired of living out of bags!
