I thought it’d be interesting and useful to include a summary of travel days. Here are links to blog posts, and a sample picture of the view of each, so you can see how the landscape changed as we travelled in our coach.

As we begin 2023, let’s look back at our coach travel in 2022. You may also want to check out the 2021 travel summary.
For another perspective on our travels, check out the Coach Timelapses playlist on the YouTube channel, which will enable you to watch all or some subset of the driving timelapses. Kinda interesting seeing how my editing style has evolved (minimally) — the first several videos didn’t even have a soundtrack.
We bought our 2017 Tiffin Allegro Bus 40SP diesel pusher motorhome on September 2, 2021, and other than a few times when we’ve been out of it during servicing appointments, we’ve lived in it full-time since then.
When we bought the coach, it only had 5,161 miles on it. In 2021 we drove it about 2,300 miles. In 2022 we drove another 8,772 miles, so have driven it 11,072 miles on our adventures so far, for a grand total of 16,233 on the odometer.
One of our goals is to visit every state. In 2022 we stayed in 5 new states: Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas, joining Washington, Oregon, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, California, and Arizona in 2021, for a total of 12. We actually went to all 12 in 2022, revisiting states we’d been to before. As we head back to our Pacific Northwest domicile each year, we’ll see a lot more of those states. Still lots more yet to visit!
Here’s a map of our coach travels and stays in 2022, via the excellent RV Life Trip Wizard website, using a variation of their maps that more clearly shows the state borders and color-coded time zones (did you know that a portion of Oregon is in the Mountain time zone?). The route starts south of Phoenix, Arizona, heads west to the California coast, back to Arizona, then heading north, doing a big serpentine loop though the states in a generally clockwise direction, ultimately ending the year in coastal Texas:
Another variation of the map, with more detail:
And finally, the route map with the travel in 2021 also displayed in different colors; our Yellowstone trip in brown, our 2021 coach travel in green, and our 2022 travel in blue:
Fascinating!
