2009 - Southwest

The Plan

We are traveling to the southwest again this year.  The journey concentrates on SD, WY, CO, UT, AZ, and NM.

Summary

We left on August 10th and returned October 2nd.
  • 9,167 miles driven (14.4 mpg)
  • 6,934 miles towing the trailer
  • 15 states
Some of the places we visited:
  • 13 National Parks
  • 8 National Monuments
  • 4 State Parks
  • 2 Space Museums
The employees and volunteers at national and state parks do an outstanding job of teaching and serving the public. Everyone we met was very pleasant and helpful.

We met strangers whom we'd now like to call friends.

Every place we visited was unique ... and the country is full of new sights to experience.
