Ky. To Grand Canyon on route I-40
Heading out west in Sept. by route I-40. Plan on grand canyon, zion,bryce, canyonland, arches. Not going up to Tetons or Yellowstone this time. What other attractions along the way, would you suggest?...

Lots of good suggestions here. We've traveled this route a number of times form NC to AZ and other western states. Palo Duro Canyon SP is definitely worth an overnight or two and we enjoyed the Plains Museum in nearby Canyon, TX.
Carlsbad Caverns is more than a couple of hours off I40 but is a NP we really enjoy. Brantley Lake SP is a good place to stay in that area.
If you find yourself around Page, AZ, the all day boat trip to Rainbow Bridge is awesome. We like to camp at Lee's Ferry in the Glen Canyon NRA when staying around there. Not a good choice if you need hookups but they do have a dump station.
Have fun.
