Our "Trip Out West" Approach

Traveling in a motorhome is a joy and a luxury, even though it does take a lot of effort at times. Some people plan out every step of the way and have reservations for each stop. We had planned to leave July 1st but postponed it a month to give time for all the little kiddies to get back to school and give us more latitude in our travels.

The only reservation we have is August 20th to stay at Fishing Bridge RV Park, which is right in Yellowstone. Besides that, we're making it up as we go. We look on the internet at campgrounds in the direction we're heading, Woodall's directory, Passport America, Big Rigs, Streets and Trips, and our Garmin GPS.


We leave when we "get around to it", drive till Ed starts getting tired, then look at options. If the closest, easiest option is a Wal-Mart parking lot, that's where we head. (Ed always asks a manager for permission. We do love Wal-Mart!)
We're enjoying the freedom of an open time schedule.
