Our Trip Home!


Apr 26th – 30th...We aired up our tires when leaving the rv park and were on the road around 730a. We made a fuel stop north of Vegas and drove 372 miles to Payson, UT. We overnighted at the Walmart (actually it was a Starbucks across the road that had closed). The Walmart parking lot was pretty full! On Sat. the 27th we drove 420 miles to Dillon with a fuel stop in Idaho Falls. We intended to wash the motorhome in Dillon so we drove into town before going to the rv park. When getting to the car wash we realized the steps/landing they had was not tall enough so that we could wash the roof....so since the wind was blowing & rain was predicted we decided not to wash it. We went back 4 miles to the Countryside RV park and spent the night. We drove home on Sunday via Twin Bridges and intersected with I15 at Boulder. We arrived at the condo around 130p. Then the fun began...unpacking! Five hours later we finally had most of the stuff out but not put away. The worst part was thing that we may be doing this plus more all again if we sell or lease the condo. We had everything pretty much done by Monday evening. We decided to leave the motorhome at the condo until the 1st since the temp was in the 20's on Mon & Tue. We also had a hard time finding a storage location for the MH. Dick's RV park, where we have stored it for 5 years, was full. We moved it to the Sportsman Storage that is just about a mile down 36th (across from the watertower). It will be nice to have it closer to the condo.
