Road trip to North Carolina

I've got some catching up to do on the blog since my last post.  I'll have to fill in the missing days at a later time but I wanted to share my experience traveling to the Co-housing Conference in Durham, NC with my good friends Greg and Chris from Boulder.

This is our first full day on the road.  We left Boulder yesterday at 4pm but got caught up in a massive traffic backup near the Denver airport that delayed us 2.5 hours. We made it to an independent RV park down a dirt road in a tiny town called Siebert, CO.  Tonight we just made it to a KOA park on the east side of Kansas City.  This is our first time staying at KOA campground.  I've stayed away thinking I wouldn't like them but took the advice of the owner at the BBQ restaurant where we ate dinner and tried this one out.  This one is right off the interstate.  It has lovely trees.  It has all the hookups plus WIFI and cable.  It has a fitness center.  That's different.  They even pick up your trash if we put it out at your curb in the morning.  This is glamping at it's best.

It's been great to have Greg and Chris travel with me.  Chris thoughtfully planned and brought healthy, good tasting edible treats and Greg has been sharing the driving responsibilities.  It's so nice to be able to kick back and relax and let someone else do the driving and experience the RV from the perspective of a passenger.  I love spending time with both of them and we can take turns taking a nap.

Here's a short clip of Greg driving with Chris navigating and me getting the opportunity to see the countryside.
