Road Trip-- Any RCC'ers on the way?
I will be taking a short road trip starting the middle of September and
would like to meet any of you who are on or close to my route. I will go from Medford, Or. to Reno, Nv. to Las Vegas, Nv. then a side trip to St. George, Ut. before heading to Phoenix, Az. Then I will head toward Houston, Tx. and up to Rogers, Ark. The next stop will be Louisville, Ky. then back to Mason City, Ia. and up to Bismarck, ND. and finally home to Hermiston, Or. If you let me know how to make contact with you I'll try to stop for a few minutes. I am not adverse to short trips off the beaten path. When I think about how much fuel I'll use on this trip all I see is the key date coins that I could have purchased. But if I stayed home I probably wouldn't buy them anyway and it will be fun to meet some of the RCC Clan. Thanks for responding Chuck Miller |

Still about an hour from Rogers, Ark. If you do make it up this far north again, give me advance notice so I will be sure to be in the store. Bill |

Only an American would call a 5000mi tour a "short road trip"! I will go from Medford, Or. to Reno, Nv. to Las Vegas, Nv. then a side trip to St. George, Ut. before heading to Phoenix, Az. Then I will head toward Houston, Tx. and up to Rogers, Ark. The next stop will be Louisville, Ky. then back to Mason City, Ia. and up to Bismarck, ND. and finally home to Hermiston, Or. Sounds like a wonderful (and beautiful) route round the country. Are you taking back roads or interstates? If you let me know how to make contact with you I'll try to stop for a few minutes. I am not adverse to short trips off the beaten path. Well, an extra 800mi round trip from Louisville will get you out here to lovely DC! ) When I think about how much fuel I'll use on this trip all I see is the key date coins that I could have purchased. But if I stayed home I probably wouldn't buy them anyway and it will be fun to meet some of the RCC Clan. Hope you get good milage! Padraic.

Padric,
Lets see---How is 10 mpg? Will be pulling my camper and that is about all I can get. I will probably use a combination of "back roads" and freeways. Pulling heavy, freeways might prove easier, especially for anyone wanting to pass me. I really like back roads! I recently found a road in Idaho that eventually ended as a Powerline road and I turned around and backtracked 50 miles. You can't always believe what the map says! But the scenery was beautiful so not a total loss! I think the D.C. trip will have to wait until next year. Chuck |

True story. A couple of years ago I had to drive from Indianapolis to a
customer site in some small town in SE Indiana. I went to Mapquest or one of those sites for directions. It gave me two options - fastest route and shortest route. Having some free time, I selected shortest route. The 4th or 5th step said "Turn right onto Naval Weapons Range Jeep Trail #4". I changed my mind and selected the 'fastest route'.
