Ours sat in California for the last six years because we had no way to bring it when we moved to Texas. Finally had my parents halfway between us( now in Oklahoma) in June. They full time, so I asked and my father went back picked it up , and brought it to NM. Loaded the DW, dogs, and gear and hit the road early on a Friday morning. Spent 2 nights with my folks then took the long road home on Sunday. It was a whirlwind weekend, but worth it. We've now spent 3 weekends in it this year. I generally work 6 day weeks, so having the ability to get away occasionally is priceless.
