We arrived home on July 9th, a few day ahead of schedule. Of the 25 days on the road we encountered rain on about 20 of them. Perhaps this was payback for a trip to Yellowstone several years ago where we encountered no rain at all during a month on the road.
From this experience we have learned several important lessons. Namely: that rain in not so bad as long as you have good rain gear; it doesn't rain so hard that you can not see the road; and, that it is not raining when you pack up in the morning. Also on this trip we decided that we are getting too old to camp so we abandoned our camping gear in favour of motels.
One thing we noted was that in recent trips we we have met fewer interesting people. Upon further reflection, we realized that have met the most interesting folk in local bars. So in future, after a long day on the road, we resolved to hang out in bars rather than restaurants.
