If you see us at a campground stop and say hi.

I wish RV.Net had an official sticker or flag to identify people who read or post to the forum

They did make them at one time but you can Print Your Own

You are all around the State of Wyoming, home of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks as well as Devils' Tower. How are you missing them. Maybe you have the maps put out by Montana and Idaho that show Yellowstone as being in those two states, don't pay any attention to them.

I can not list all the places we will see. Yes we will see the ones you mentioned.

If you plan to boondock or dry camp when you are in Colorado or just want some ideas on interesting routes that you may not have taken previously, take a look at my Colorado "free camping" blog HERE.

We're headed west starting in August and ma cross paths as we go out and you come back. I'll keep track of where you are.

You might also consider joining RVillage. There's feature that allows you to check in at a campground and it shows you all the other members in the area. I've met a few members in my travels.

I painted a sign with RV.Net and our screen name. It hangs from one of those metal little flag holders you stick in the ground. So far no rv.net people have approached us.
Interested in your trip reports. The northwest is on our trip list when we can take off for unlimited time.
Have a wonderful and safe trip.
Marcia

Safe travels, and have a lot of fun!

How are you going to handle your mail? That was the biggest issue for us.

I have been fulltimeing since 2006 so I have mail forward by My Home Address in Emery SD. I have been parked in TN for good valid reasons for a few years. Now at age 80 I am back on the road again. . . . :B

Wow, sounds like a wonderful trip. 6 months on the road with lots of time to see the sights. We did a similar trip but it was 10 weeks and we did not get to see everything we would have liked to. Ours was basically out I-90 to the Olympic Penn, down to the Grand Canyon, across the gulf coast from Galveston to Mobile and then back home. Loved it.

How are you going to handle your mail? That was the biggest issue for us. I received a summons for jury duty the very week after we had left. We met up with friends and neighbors who had come down to Mobile and they brought our mail with them that another neighbor had collected. That was 9 weeks into our trip. As soon as I could call the court clerk I did and she said to just check in when I returned. Could have had a warrant on me for no show for that. Just saying, things come up.
