It won't even be for 24 hrs LOL. We plan on pulling in at night, hopefully before midnight. Grab a few hours sleep and then see Bronner's in the a.m. Then a quick lunch and off again LOL.
We don't subscribe to the "your vacation week should be the most restful week of the year" theory. We are more "tag-team drive and try like heck to squeeze in some highlights in every state as quickly as possible" type travelers.
We will cover 3,000 miles in 11 days. Not a bad daily average for us... Slightly slower than our 21 states in 19 days - 6,000 mile road trip across the US we did a few years ago.
I don't want to pay for Jellystone to just sleep for 5-6 hrs. Plus it's just plain rude to pull in that late with a diesel truck. Idling along trying to find the site, doors opening/closing while you inspect the site with a flashlight, trying to back in quietly, etc. No easy way to slam a truck door or an RV door shut that doesn't make a racket for the neighbors.
I'll checkout the Visitor Center parking lot idea. Thanks.
