    Time for my annual cross country trek.

    Campers on the truck, coolers full of beer, credit card balances on $0. Hittin the road as soon as the wife gets off work this afternoon.
    This year we're heading to southern Colorado. San Luis valley here we come. Base camp at Great Sand Dunes National Park, air down the tires on the 4WD and bounce up to Medano Pass. Couldn't possibly be in the area without checking out the UFO Watchtower and hopefully see the daily exit of bats out of the Orient Mine.
    Next the San Juan mountains. The Alpine Loop has been on my list for awhile.
    From there over to Canyons of the Ancients National Monument.
    That's just the highlights but as usual we'll take our time and see as much as possible along the way.

    Nice! When I was 6-7 years old I lived with my parents in a 18' travel trailer and we went across the country, stopping every now and then.

    Are you prepared for weather changes? With that much ground to cover, you might experience very cold and very hot temps.

    I really need to take notes on where you go when you take off. You set out to see some of the coolest stuff I've never heard of. Enjoy your travels, Grif.
