I just went to the car wash (hand wand) to wash my truck and noticed the total mileage from our trip. Last night was the 4th week (28 days) and I had originally estimated 3,000-3,500 miles, man was I off. :shock: This is almost a years worth of driving for me and I'll need another oil change when we get back. lol

We did find a lot more to do along the way and some exploring off road but it was all worth the added gas $ as there's no price on the memories. One thing we said before leaving is we're not going to look back and say "I wish we would've done that". Well we did it and then some. ?

We still have another 400+ mile drive home tomorrow. Sid @Msfitoy I'm getting closer buddy!?

Between the time spent on R5G and in the car wash, I'm surprised you made any miles at all.

Looks like you had a great trip, with lots of memories. :thumbsup:
I've perfected the art of multitasking. lol ?

Well this month flew by and we're now heading back to AZ today. :sadface: This trip was even more fun than we thought it would be and we did so much I now need another vacation to rest. lol You all made it even more special with all the comments, messages and text. The birthday wishes and concern over Annies fall is much appreciated!!!?

Now I just hope the contractors are done and the stench of beer is gone from Duke @DukeCanBuildit and all his ASU friends! :facepalm: :shock:?

Andy @canyonslicker When I saw what the prices of houses are going for here ($288/sq ft) I didn't bother to meet up with a realtor. There were no open houses the day we went through the new developments either and we just figured we'd wait and see if this crazy market ever cools off. I do have the owners number from the place we stayed at and his son is a realtor so if you even need that just message me.

What a great adventure Dave! After being dragged along all those hikes on her injured knee, I’m sure Annie could likely use a vacation now. ;)

The house looks great - those folks at Servpro really mean it when they say, “Like it never even happened”.

We got the ASU Spirit Squad to enlist some helpers for the cleanup. You wouldn’t believe what these dorks will do to even get close to a cheerleader…

Thanks Duke and thanks for getting the guys over there so quickly. :whew: Luckily she has a desk job and will finally be able to rest her knee now. One of the guest here told her about this CBD cream that she uses for her bad knee. So I looked into it and found a store close by that sells it and it seems to really be helping her with the pain and inflammation. Funny because even in as much pain as she was in the first couple days it never stopped her from shopping!:facepalm: ?

Considering all the different elevation changes and the average speeds were around 75-85 it really is. Plus add some off roading in there too.
