Hello All again,
It is looking like Lois and I are really going to do this trip,
should be buying a camper in Seattle this time next week, and
making our way south to Coos Bay, Oregon and then back across
Idaho and on to Helena, Montana and then on home to NC.
Can I enlist your help in locating the "definitive places" to
see and to camp in route. We plan to take the coast route south
to Coos Bay from Seattle, what is the most special place on the
way, Then northeast following the Columbia River Gorge on the way
to Idaho/Montana. We have be told that Coeure d'Alene Lake and
Hells Canyon are beautiful beyond belief, but no specifics as to
places to stay or visit. We have so little time, we must really
try to identify the "must do's."
Hope to get to Glacier National Park and/or Yellowstone/Jackson
Hole area, any recommendations there. Our thoughts are to go south
to Denver, and then east, I suspect we will be in the crazy part
of the trip then, probably will see a lot of Walmarts.
Any help in planning would be greatly appreciated, we feel like
the group values of place to go would never lead us astray. Also,
any folks that could offer their locations in our route as
resources in case of trouble, or even better, opportunities to
meet new friends, we would be very appreciative.
I also did not have any reponse to my resent post about the Travel
Guide, it might have been on the Limbo site. Is it gone? Any one
have a link?
TIA, hope to meet many of you on our trip. Hopefully we will post
an active map of showing our progress in this craziness. I blame
this insanity on all the good folks at the Limbo Transporters by
Tunnel weekend last year. I had such a good time and good travels
that I now fearless. ha ha.
Travel Well,
Jim
