Anyone who knows us will read this with some amount of disbelief.
Yesterday morning, our plans to stay with a couple of old friends in Salt Lake City fell through. As I have never been to Utah before, we really wanted to keep this location on our itinerary. At first we were at a lost as to what to do. We didn't know anyone else in the SLC area that we felt comfortable asking to stay with and we knew that staying at hotels would be too expensive.
On our drive home, as Jeff processed the information, it occurred to him that it might be kind of fun to buy a tent and camp along the way (with our queen size air mattress). We figured even with the cost of buying a tent, it would probably be cheaper than staying in a hotel.
Now we will even be able to break up the long trip from Mt Rushmore to Eagan--our last leg.
We checked out the KOA website (www.koa.com) and are now even more excited to begin our road trip on Friday.
Thursday is moving day.
Tomorrow is last minute packing day.
Oh, and one of the great perks of staying at a KOA is that most of them have free wireless internet. We'll be traveling with our laptop, so hopefully we'll be able to keep our blog updated as we progress along our road trip. :-)
