[I previously published a variation of this at the end of the 2021 travel post, but thought I’d re-publish it separately and update it, since I know some people missed it after all the stuff in that post.]
We started 2022 in Arizona, and are currently in California (and will shortly head to Disneyland for Jenn’s birthday in February, and to the coast), then will go back to Arizona, including the FMCA convention, then north into Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and Wyoming to hit more National Parks. Then via Idaho into Oregon to visit doctors and dentists. After that, we’ll head north to Washington, east to Idaho and Montana, then south through Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico (including the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta!), ending up in Texas for next winter, as we slowly make our way across the country.
Places book out months in advance nowadays, so we like to have about six months booked, where possible (or longer, though many popular places only allow six or fewer months). Currently, we already have reservations up till late-July, during the Oregon portion, plus a few busy times later in the year, but the rest of the year is subject to change.
Here’s the current route and stop map for 2022 (updated since the 2021 travel post); starting from the Phoenix area, heading to the coast, then going basically clockwise:
Still a lot more of the country to see, but we’re working our way across, with trips back to Portland each year. The maps for subsequent years will be similar to the 2022 one, but heading north from and ending up further east each time:
I hope you’ll enjoy following our journey!
