Re: Mountain Driving
Enjoy the trip down as well as up. Go slow, the additional 10 minutes to your travel time should not be a big deal. It's better to be late than never! I have a V10 with Tow/Haul button and you it all the time. Texas to Colorado and 2 passes. I just go slow up and down. Give dog peanut butter smeared on a paper plate and causes their ears to pop due to the swallowing. Everyone is happy and safe. We usually drink a bottle of water and chew a tums for each 2500' in elevation we gain to stop the altitude headaches.646Views0likes0CommentsRe: How about a RGV update
There are plenty of news articles (with real facts and some not real statements), plenty of medical resources and plenty of medical recommendations to substantiate your individual opinions. Politics should not be part of this discussion. Each individual has the right to their own health and safety without being offended that others do not concur.765Views0likes0CommentsRe: Montrose or Glenwood Springs area
You stated "We are looking for cool temps, good golf, fly fishing, hiking, medical, decent grocery shopping, and fun people." Have you looked at Fun Valley near South Fork, Colorado. It's 8500'. Lots of nice people, some young and some not so young. Private park with most everything you wish is very close or less than 1 hr away. Check it out online. August is a great time. COVID-19 has been an issue for just about every RV park this year. They have a good Facebook site that shows lots of the park and things to do. Good luck and have a great time.797Views0likes0CommentsRe: Rocky Mountain National Park to Cheyenne Mountain State Park
Not really a good path for your trip other than right thru Denver. 36 to 66 to I-25 then enjoy the traffic. You can go around on toll road, but expensive, even with NTTA tag. Castle Rock is always a pain and with construction, it adds time and more white knuckle driving than I like, but can be done. Getting to I-25 between 9:30-10:00 AM is not bad and gets you to Air Force Academy before noon. That's my 2 cents, have fun!899Views0likes0CommentsRe: How to calculate the cost of RVing

If it's true, I don't want to hear about it. I agree.. I don't care how others spend their money, and I don't care about others opinions on how I spend mine. Mike I can 2nd this attitude. Who cares what others say, think or do, if I am enjoying my time and can afford it, let me be me.772Views0likes0CommentsRe: 12 night trip: CA to UT & CO Natl. Parks
IMO, you will need at least 1 day at Great Sand Dunes, so make reservations for the night and get there early and you will need sunscreen & BUG SPRAY! Mesa Verde is a long day to drive in and out (keep in mind that some parts are closed now and you can't see some of the best parts). You can take a small side-trip and go a little south to Aztec and see ruins that are very similar to Mesa Verde. Rocky Mountain is great in summer. Small hikes and great time for family (Sept/Oct is my favorite time for elk bugling). Also, North Rim of Grand Canyon is neat for one afternoon/evening. Go slow over Wolf Creek pass and enjoy some time in Pagosa Springs for tubing and soaking.45Views0likes0Comments
