OK, here is my route: Head straight west for the Black Hills of South Dakota in the area of Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore, etc. Spend at least 4 days there. If you've never been to Yellowstone head on over there for another 4 days. If you don't want to go to Yellowstone, drop on down to Estes Park, CO. September is the ideal time to be there. The Elk will be on the move all around you. Weather is usually good. If you do go to Yellowstone, still drop back down to Estes Park, another 4 days. Spend another day or two at either Colorado Springs or Buena Vista, CO. Now drive down to Santa Fe, NM for 3 or 4 day stay.
Now back across Oklahoma to Russellville, AR and Dardanelle State Park for a couple of days just to rest up from the driving. Spend a night somewhere around Memphis/Nashville before going on up to Lexington, KY and the Kentucky Horse Park for the last 3 or 4 nights before heading toward home.
Without Yellowstone I figure this to be a 27-28 day trip. The only part of the trip I do not have towing experience with is the first leg to get out west to South Dakota, and the trip home from Lexington. Other than that we have camped in all the stops I have mentioned.
There are countless variations, but you asked a straight question, "Where would you go in September? My short answer would be: to the Rocky Mountain West. Above is just one possibility.
