New to the forum.
Hi all, new guy here. Ive just been browsing the forum a bit getting to know it a little better.
Looks like a great site!
My wife and I arent new to camping/rving.
Both of us grew up camping with the parents and now we continue the tradition with our three kids 11,9,7.
We took an 18 day trip in Sept.this year out through Colorado (estes), Utah (moab-zion), through Nevada, ending up in Anaheim rv park to visit Disneyland, Dana point beach, south of L.A., turned around and came back taking a little bit further south route to Grand Canyon, Mesa Verde, Pikes peak and ended up at Lake McConaughy in western Nebraska.
We practically had the entire campground at Lake McConaughy to our selves.
3900 miles traveled, 11.5 mpg from my truck.
Had a great time, these memories will last a lifetime.
Im already planning our next big trip!
The good thing about our trip was we just missed the massive rainfall/ flooding in Colorado and all the National parks shutting down.
We home school our children so it was great to have that option of rving in "off season".
Just a general overview of our trip (I could go on and on :)), but you get the idea.
Any questions just fire away and Ill try to answer the best I can.
Here are a few pics of the trip.
Me and the fam.
Stopping for a break, Wolf creek pass.
Beach south of L.A.
Zion.
Grand Canyon.
If you zoom in to the lower left corner of this pic. you can see people camping on the beach of the little island in the Colorado river.
Deadhorse Point, probably our fav. place.
Near Estes.
Taking a break at a stream on Old Fall River Road.
We made it to top of the mountain.
No place like home, well, close enough.
Lake McConaughy.
