Br- and Wade:
I am following a sort of late summer ritual in Colorado. I used to work at the Air Force Academy and have several close friends in the mental health field who live near there. I plan to camp on the Academy grounds and visit some favorite haunts nearby, as well as getting some closure with them, since they were friends of my wife as well. So that part of the trip will be bittersweet. My mother moved to Payson Az a year ago to be close to my sister and her husband. Payson is about 90 miles northeast of Phoenix and southeast of Flagstaff. I have never been there, so that part of my trip will be an adventure. The friend who is going with me likes to drive hard to get to destinations, so we will be driving straight through on each leg of the trip, trading sleep breaks. I am frankly excited about having my B+ for this type of trip. It will be a different experience to have a rig that doesn't tire me out like a traditional motorhome (excluding the high dollar ones), but still has room to stretch out once parked!
