Well, we made it home in one piece and we have our rig in storage a few miles from our home. Our last post had us in Ogden, UT where we spent the night. From there, we drove to Boise, ID and stopped at Twin Falls, along the way. If you are ever in this area, it is worth the diversion. The gorge at Twin Falls is awesome and indescribeable. You don't know the gorge is there and then Wham!, it is right in front of you.
The next day, we stopped in Baker City, OR at the Oregon Trail Intrepretative Center. Another awesome place that would take a whole day to see everything. This is A double Wow!Wow!. The view of the trail from the center is breathtaking and the museum is just awesome. This is one place to go out of your way for. We spent a few hours there and will definitely be back to spend much more time. We then drove to Ellensburg, WA so that we we could into Port Ludlow reasonably early the next day.
October 13th--Arrived home around noon and spent the afternoon cleaning and putting more "stuff" into the coach.
Post Travel Thoughts: Well, having had a boat made this new experience an easier one and certainly less stresssful. For one thing, the motorhome has brakes! The boat did not. That meant that it stayed where you left it, unlike a boat that can go with the current and the winds at the time.
While some would not like the mileage of the motorhome (6 mpg) it was twice that of the boat!! so we, again, were pretty happy. Here are some interesting comparisons:
BOAT MOTORHOME
Fuel Capcity 700 gallons or about $2,000 100 gallons or about $300
Range on Full Tank 1800 Miles 600 Miles
Ave travel in one day 25 to 30 miles 300 to 500
Well, we do have a list of things to change or fix just as we would have for the boat. That part is the same.
Thats about it for now! Thanks for following our trip!!
This blog has taken a "hard left turn" and our Trawler that took us to Alaska via the water is now an RV to take us places on land. You can follow our journey as we start our life as RVers. The journey begins on September 20th when we fly to Orlando to take posession of an motorhome that we bought on E-bay.

- From this point forward, this blog will be used to follow our travels as new RVers. SpiritQuest now has tires and even brakes. Wow! Early entries (Alaska Trip 2007) As relatively new boaters, we hope to realize our dream of going to Alaska this summer aboard our 1987 Krogen Trawler.

Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd figured I'd ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa?
My website discusses a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you are interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!
Wonderful blog by the way!

Once you create a technique for your forex trading, follow it. Don't get terrified, don't get cocky, you should pull out whenever your final point here is arrived at plus whenever your goal is attained. It's like being given a $ to perform a slot equipment - in the event you abandon together with the dollar you're ahead of time, however if you listen to it and shed you're not.

Aw, this was an extremely nice post. Spending some time and actual effort to generate a top notch article… but what can I say… I hesitate a lot and never
seem to get nearly anything done.
