Russells' Return Route

As Chris's dad pointed out to us when we had so joyfully arrived at our destination on Whidbey Island in our RV, only the first half of our journey was complete; we've still gotta get this big guy home. Only the "getting here" route had been planned. Shortly after arriving, Chris got busy mapping out our "going home" route. With a sweltering heatwave raging across the country, we are not in a hurry to get back to the horrendous Houston heat and humidity.

While America swelters, we are in the yellow zone, cozied up to our fake fireplace:

A plan was formed to focus our time in the cooler weather of the northwest before heading south. We have the luxury of not having to rush home so travel days will be shorter, averaging five hours a day. We also can spend multiple days at the camping stops which will be nice to not have to pick up and go each morning. After much internet research: checking reviews, locations, and availability of RV parks, Chris formulated our itinerary of 12 campgrounds in seven states over three weeks.

Let's do this!
