Trip to Tyson’s Wedding – leaving September 8th

Moab Vicinity

(September 2014) – Going to Utah in September for Tyson’s Wedding.  The wedding itself is on Saturday, 20 September out in the “wild”.  It’s not where any road goes to that Google Maps knows about, but you can see it on the map and is actually HERE  if you’d like to have a closer look.  Put the satellite layer on and zoom in as far as it will go. Expect pictures of the wedding here after the event.

Florida via Utah – Summer 2014

This is one of those “What was I thinking?” moments.  I was thinking we’d be traveling in August, but it is September (Doh!) and we both need to be back to Granite for Railroad Days Parade, the first Saturday in October.  So I think we will do the trip through stop number 7 BEFORE the wedding, then high-tail it back home right after the wedding.  As always, those plans are still in the idea stage, but I think we can make it work.  Now to figure out how we are going to care for the animals while we’re gone.

The route to the wedding

And here is the current plan, as of Sunday, August 30th.  Click on a stop for more info.

1. This is home – our starting point, .  It’s also where we end up on the 23rd.
2. Peaceful Pines:  Still in Washington State, but in Cheney.  One night stay.  WE may go back here someday as there is plenty to see in this part of Washington and we haven’t seen it.
3. Farimont RV Park:  Anaconda, Montana.  It’s probably a bad sign but the park registration clerk said no reservation is necessary.  “There hardly anyone here this time of year.”
4. Longhorn Ranch:  Duboios, Wy.  This is our first stop of more than 1 night.  Three days to spend exploring Yellowstone.  Hopefully you can catch the trav el log for this stop and see some photos.
5. Fort Collins/Poudre KOA.  Our first stop at a KOA camp ground.  Most of our stops are Sams Club, so we’ll see how this goes.
6. Garden of the Gods, Colorado Springs:  Two days to do Pikes peak and the surrounding area.
7. Shady Acres RV Park, Green River, Ut:  This is the wedding stop.  We allowed 4 nights here so we can take in all the sights of the Utah desert as well as a day for the wedding.  Again, expect Idaho.pictures here of both.
8. Hagerman RV Village, Id:  First stop on he way home.
9. Hat Rock Campground, Oregon:  Last stop before home.
10. Home again.  September 23rd.
