We are doing things around the house and a couple of projects on the motorhome to make it more user friendly for our needs. Janet recovered a foot stool that will double as an end table and a storage piece. We plan on using it in between the driver and passenger seats when traveling to hold things while going down the road but it can also be used to store things in and when the top is turned over it becomes a foot stool. She did a great job sewing the heavy upholstery fabric and the color matches the interior perfectly. I made a sliding drawer that went under the kitchen sink so you don't have to get down on the floor to get to things in the back of the cabinet. Now you just pull out the drawer and everything under the sink is easily accessible.
Just after the 4th of July we are taking off to head out west. We aren't sure how long we will be gone and have no set itinerary. I imagine we will be gone four to six weeks or so. We debated on planning out the trip or to just winging it. We decided to just take off and wing it. I would like to stay for a week or so at various locations and then do day trips from there. I want to see some of the National Parks and the popular sites but also would enjoy seeing the little western towns and the not so popular parts of the country. I enjoy the not so popular places probably just as much or more as the popular ones however, I am looking forward to seeing the Grand Canyon from various locations. Finding rv parks to stay at especially around the main attractions could be a problem since we have no reservations but we will see how it goes. If we happen to miss a lot of things that's ok since that will give us a good reason to do it again next year.
If anyone has any particular locations they think we should visit just send us a personal email at jdjlmiller1971@gmail.com and we will try to check them out. Thanks.

Written not for notoriety but for our sons, family and friends, so they know where we are at any given time. And particularly for ourselves. Finally, we get to slow down and smell the roses and we don't want to forget any of it. You are welcome to join us as we go 'Down the Road a Piece'.
