My travels during 2013
10,380 miles traveled in 2013
I started my year just outside Lake Havasu, Arizona, boondocking in the desert where I set off on a 3 month trip around Arizona, New Mexico, back into Arizona, and into Utah before finally returning to Colorado at the end of March where I stayed for the summer. In the fall I visited Glacier National Park, then swung West into Washington, Oregon, and California before returning to Colorado to be with family again.
