    Well, Betty and I have finished packing most of the rig for the upcoming trip to Idaho. We'll finish the rest the day before we leave. For those who have RVs, you can appreciate that loading and unloading is a royal pain in the A--!! especially if you're going to be gone for any length of time. Invariably you forget something and end up buying it along the way. That means when you get home you've got two or three of the same thing at the house.
    We leave home on May 5th. According to Google, it's 2,082 miles to destination and we plan 10 days en route with sightseeing. We'll be traveling thru TX, CO, WY, and UT. I spent a whole day on the computer flight planning this puppy and finally converted all info to an Excel spreadsheet.
    One thing I realized after the plan was done is that 10 days isn't enough time to see everything at a laid-back pace. So we're going to have to skip a few things so we won't be worn out by the time we get there.
    I was surprised to find that there are plenty of Flying J truck stops along the way with good prices for diesel. Unfortunately, Blue Bell Ice Cream isn't distributed that far north. There will be a withdrawal period.
    We'll update our information on this blog with pictures and stuff if we have net connections.
