2 RV's to Draper UT (Friday)

... spending the night at home

We had spent the last few days looking at local trips but nothing said 'do me' even though some of them would have worked. There and been a trip to Duluth, a trip from Bagley (but not at the same time.) And other trips under 500 miles. We could have taken a longer trip but this time the 1,000 mile trips seemed to pay the best.

Now rental cars are not the issue, hotel prices are. Kalispell, Draper, Greer, NY, all had high priced hotels. We ended up going with Draper because the rental car was cheapest and we will just use points for our night closest to Cheyenne. Cheyenne is having their week long rodeo and our $100 hotel is now $560. And hotels for a 100 miles either side of Cheyenne are high so we will be using points somewhere for that hotel. We still have 300,000 points even after staying a couple of nights in Duluth on vacation right on the lake.

There were four RV's going to Draper so I call in when they open at 8 AM. For some reason it keeps ringing without going to the automated recording so I ask BB to call in also. But by then it finally rang through, I get put on hold so others had gotten in before me but our trips were still there.

This is the same trip as our last one except we have more time because we are leaving on a Friday and can't deliver until Monday.

Plan is to do this trip and come back and I need to do my DOT physical when we get back. Then a week after that I have another appointment. Then it's state fair time and we already have tickets. So it might be Sept again before we get back out to CA for a bus.
