Dan and Janice are home again, the trip is over, and usually that's very sad. But this time it feels different: everyone's energized and excited to do new things here at home.
-
It's the final night in Evangeline, and the whole family is here to look back on the whole trip. It's been a long and good one, there's a lot to remember.

It's the second-to-last overnight and Dan and Janice are back in Iowa City. And being back on the same path that the trip started on gives some perspective on where they were and where they are now.
-
The heat wave that had been plaguing Nebraska the last few days has finally broken. And it turns out, this whole summer has been about just missing dramatic weather events.
-
Look. Dan shouldn't have said that maybe Nebraska wouldn't be a problem. Because it was absolutely a problem when, in attempting to unhitch in Ogallala, Nebraska, the tongue jack stopped working. Anyone got a good number for a mobile RV repair.
-
It's the final night in Colorado, and Evangeline is parked back at St Vrain State Park today, which means they're once again parked next to the Great Gas Price War of Greater Longmont. Plus:Dan probably jinxes the next couple days in Nebraska by saying that nothing will go wrong.
-
This is it, it's really happening now: It's the final night in Lyons and the second-to-last night in Colorado. And while everyone feels OK about heading home, nobody feels great about leaving Lyons.
-
It's one week before Evangeline is parked and Janice and Dan and the family get home. And it's definitely hard to keep from thinking about what it will be like getting home. This time, it doesn't feel as sad for the trip to come to a close. Not because it was too much, but because everyone feels content.

It's Janice's Birthday! And it was a beautiful day, so most of it was spent outside. From eating every meal outside to hitting the river in the tube, to hiking around Boulder's beautiful Chautauqua park, it was a great birthday in the perfect weather.
-
It was the final move to Lyons Colorado, which also means it's the last week in Colorado before the road home. It also marks Dan's return to work, which is a little stressful but also a reminder of how lucky we are to do this.
-
It's the last day in Saint Vrain State Park, and it turns out both Janice and Dan are going to miss these beautiful sites. But most of the day was spent up in Lyons, catching the last chance to play pinball at the incredible pinball place, and of course dinner and ice cream at the Lyons Dairy Bar. Which, it turns out, was a real scene tonight: it had a little bit of everything.

Don't plan anything too ambitious for the day after Water World, because you will be far too exhausted for it. Most everyone hit the post-Water World wall today. However the little one hit it in the car last night. It got gross.
-
It's very late and it's been a long day, but the whole family is here to talk about the epic day at Water World, the giant waterpark just outside of Denver.
-
Last night's storm got worse after we stopped recording. Heavy rains and wind and... a kayak? Also: Dan got gas at the cheapest gas in Colorado. It was a whole scene.
-
Evangeline is back in Colorado again, just in time for a big storm to hit, though it hasn't hit quite yet. Mostly, being in Colorado again means feeling like you've come back home, even though we're still 1000 miles away from our house.
-
Dan and Janice are parked partway through Wyoming, after what should have been an uneventful drive day. Except. Except that mistakes were made and hitching up took forever. In fact, it was so bad that they had to ask for help from a campground staffer named Kenny. Thanks Kenny!
-
Evangeline is stopped for a night in Bozeman, Montana, a town the whole family was charmed by back on 2018's trip. The campsite isn't particularly remote, sandwiched between the interstate and some busy train tracks, but it's very close to town. Turns out, a lot of money has moved in since the last time Evangeline came through, but it's still quite charming.
-
Evangeline is parked in a big campground in the middle of a strip mall in Missoula Montana and finally everyone is getting cleaned after a long stretch without showering! After yesterday's difficult campground, this chain campground with his full hookups and level sites is a dream.
-
After backing up to a slightly less slopy sight, Janice and Dan and the family met up with a friend in Spokane who showed them the town. It was a great day! Especially being introduced to the public art/garbage can known as the Garbage Goat.
-
Janice and Dan are out of the Pacific Northwest and back in the heat that the rest of the country has been experiencing. Tonight they're parked on a dramatic slope outside of Spokane, Washington.
