Hello everyone. I am off on 1 May 2014 for the Utah tour. I have done as much tweaking, fixing, oil changing and cleaning on the "Beast" to make her road worthy. Hopefully she will provide me an uneventful maintenance wise trip. I also joined the Good Sam Road Side Assistance program just in case. For ~$80.00 it's worth the peace of mind. I hope to have, albeit limited, data connectivity along the way and cell coverage. Looking forward to this "bucket list" trip.
My initial itinerary to the rendezvous point in Capitol Reef National Park will take me through and stopping in Coldwater, MS; Ozark, AR; Lawton, OK; Canyon, TX; Pena Blanca, NM; Durango, CO; and Moab, UT. Upon completion of the tour I plan on shooting over to both the North and South Rim of the Grand Canyon along with a few other tour participants as well. Afterwards I'll go where my wallet and fuel takes me! I would like to maybe hit Vegas for a few nights (I'm not a gambler by any means) but I’ve heard that some of the major Casinos have some pretty nice and affordable RV parks. If anyone with info on same pleases PM, email or post the info here, thanks. Afterwards I will probably take the Southern route home maybe stopping in New Orleans, and then heading North East back to Rocket City. I sure am excited.
If anyone has any suggestions; recommendations or ideas please feel free to chime in. Look forward to seeing many Casitas on the road! Have an enjoyable summer and see ya on down the blacktop!
One final point of order if I may. I fully realize that this is a Casita web site and my current rig is not a Casita, but it does have a full fiberglass roof. Seriously though, if anyone is offended by me posting on the site, just let me know and I'll mosey on down the road...
Best. Shorty sends...
