Summer is here... time to go on an adventure.....
This time, I'm off to see an old friend in Omaha, Nebraska. I thought it might be fun to document the build up to the ride in mid-July. I'll have photos up (in detail) of what I'm packing for the ride, so this post will be ongoing. I plan to post the "Glympse" URL so folks can follow along each day. Hey, it's just for entertainment. This isn't an around the world trip , and I'm certainly no expert.
Today, we'll start with the map. Each GPS listed in the map below is a "FreeCampSites.net" camping location.
First stop is
(use google maps and the satellite view to zoom in. You can see the fire ring.)
near Ash Fork AZ. I picked it because it's not very far off Interstate 40 and only 400 miles from home... that's the longest leg of the journey. I've learned that you can't arrive at a "free" site near dark. If it's occupied, you end up searching for the alternates in the dark! Not fun. The alternates are near by. Last resort for that leg will be the KOA in Williams!
Lets get this entertaining post going with the map.
I'm taking the same route back and camping at mostly the same spots. 'might use one of the alternates just to vary the experience.
... more to come....
