T-minus 3 weeks until the camper is our long-term home! We've talked some prep, but the big question friends and family keep asking is, understandably, "Where are you going to be?"
We've mapped out a tentative course pretty much following I-90 to Seattle for the first two months. We'll try to push through this part of our trip quickly, hopefully reaching Seattle by early November, due to the snowfall we're anticipating in northern Montana, Idaho, and eastern Washington. While we're traveling, we'll be keeping a watchful eye on the snowfall in southern Idaho and Utah, as this will impact our course after we reach Seattle. The current plan is to travel from Portland, OR, through Idaho into Salt Lake City via I-84, then driving I-15 to Las Vegas. Our only set-in-stone location/time so far is Las Vegas no later than December 16. The Patriots play the Raiders that Sunday and Shawn already has tickets. If I-15 isn't safe for us to drive with the camper, we'll have to re-route through California.
We'll be updating as we go along! You can see from our route we'll be hitting all sorts of climates, which is why we're taking care to prep. Our targets include both cities and nature. We'll have to have our skiing/snowboarding gear, heavy winter clothes, bathing suits, warm weather clothes, etc. all at once! Our plan is to return east in April, but if we're really enjoying ourselves, who knows!
We're also going to be fairly flexible with the specific dates we visit places, so let us know if you have somewhere you would like to meet up and we'll try to coordinate!
