Why bother with National Parks?

We're new to RVing and have just bought an older Class C. My wife wants to take a trip touring many of the western United States' National Parks. I've been doing some research and this is what I'm finding: Crappy Roads, Crappy Campgrounds, Large Crowds, Lots of Walking, Varying Rules from Park to Park, Unpredictable Conditions and more that I'm forgetting righ now. With all of this, why in the world do people even bother with these parks and how do you even think about relaxing and enjoying the scenery? Righ now all I see is a gut-wrenching experience and I'm already a wreck just thinking about it.

Add to that the fact that you now have to drive a HOUSE on the Highway - Check the oil - Tune the engine - keep an eye on the tires and brakes - fix the furnace - and the A/C - I'm getting tired just writing about all that can go wrong.


BUT............


When I get out and just SEE ........ SMELL........ FEEL the GREAT OUTDOORS..........I just Forget about all the issues in the world ...........WHAT A GREAT COUNTRY .........

Did I mention the People you might Meet............ Some pretty neat people are out there.
