Haven't been as far away as some have on here, but here are a few places we've been to in a relatively short period. Path in red shows our planned vacation trip to Colorado next year.

Yes, they were there. LOL. But, my best rental Jeep story is at the KOA in Moab. Curtis and I had just returned to our tent site from running Fins and Things. Right after I pulled in this young man about Curtis' age walks up to me as asks, "Where'd you rent that Jeep?" I explained that you can't rent a Jeep like this. You must build it.

Shortly after buying the JK, we drove across country from WA to GA, then moved up to VA a couple months later. Along the way we stopped by Yosemite, Hoover Dam, and Grand Canyon, along with our parents houses.

Now in VA we have made a few trips down to OBX NC and one trip to Shenandoah Valley and another trip to Shoe Creek.
