October 10 - Carthage, MO to Rhodes, IA

Barb - last post! Ed took a look at the weather in Iowa, especially along I-80, and decided we needed to put the RV in "go" gear and get home. Des Moines to Omaha was getting snow and we didn't want to be one of the vehicles that was unsuccessful with weather elements! We were lucky as the snow melted around Des Moines before we arrived there. We didn't do any siteseeing - not much more than one gas stop, actually. Nice to get home and notice that the leaves are changing - and it's sure cold!

A few statistics: We drove 6500 miles; went through 13 states; visited 6 national parks or set-aside areas; stayed in our RV 47 of 47 nights! Our average RV park/campground stay was $34. It may or may not offset the gas cost, but we had a wonderful time! We are planning the next adventure.
