Shawn, let me say this to encourage your decision.  In the last few years
I've taken to taking my trips in April-May or right after Labor Day.  Or
even the dead of Winter down into Arizona/California (one trip).  No crowds,
light traffic, friendly camp ground hosts and in some cases cheaper rates.
And cooler weather.  All those combined make for very pleasant travel and
camping.  Only caveat is weather and the fact that some areas (like Glacier
Park last year) start closing up within the first two weeks after Labor
Day.  But there can be advantages though like geting to Glacier Park just as
the first snow was falling and getting a beautiful landscape (and empty
campgrounds that would have been elbow to elbow a month before).
