For this trip it's all about destination - we have a wedding, a baptism, and a reunion to go to. Sightseeing is not part of the schedule, at least this trip. OTOH, we've driven most of route many years before (without an RV, when we were a lot younger) so it's not like we'll be broken up about what we are missing.
Reservations - for me a lot less stressful to know we don't have to go searching for a place - we can just go directly there. As far as being set up by4 and chilling out for the evening - most of the stops we'll be making probably won't be the sort of place I want to do that. I would rather hurry and get to the destination and visit with family.
Yes, I found out the hard way that Colorado fills up 6 months in advance. However, I was fortunate to find 3 campgrounds that still had space and got those reservations secure. Years ago we experienced the frustration of needing to drive all night for lack of a place to stay. This time we may be taking our motel with us, but we still will want to count on a place to park.
Thanks to the feed back, I'll keep most of the legs of the trip short, although one it looks like we'll be stuck with a long day. At least it's sandwiched between a couple of short ones.
