Road Trip: San Carlos to Bainbridge Island

Loaded with two kayaks, two paddleboards, camping gear, food, our clothes, a set of oars and mucho misc. boat gear. On our trip home this year we drove 3,311 miles,  through eight states: Arizona New Mexico Colorado South Dakota Wyoming Montana Idaho Washington We visited  five National Parks: Petrified Forest Great Sand Dunes Rocky Mountain Badlands Wind Cave four National Monuments/Memorials: Painted Desert Petroglyph Mt. Rushmore Devils Tower  and many National Historic Sites and Museums. The majority of the time we were at an  elevation of 6000' and above. We saw some beautiful country, much of it was greener  than normal due to the weird weather this year. We met some interesting people,   visited old friends and some family. All in all it was a great trip. Just a warning: this is a lengthy blog post! Don't feel obligated to read it:) When we left San Carlos we drove up through Mexicali
