The Big Road Trip is finished. We arrived back at the house at about 6:30 p.m. this evening. By 8 everything was out of the camper and in the house … and mostly put away. We had been gone 23 days had had driven the motorhome 5,204 miles at an average speed of 52.6 mph. I have many more statistics which might come in handy the next time we try to put together a Big Road Trip. The planning worked out pretty well. Over all we drove 305 miles further than I had originally estimated, but at a miles-per-gallon rate better than I had estimated and a price per gallon significantly less that I had expected. The most expensive gasoline was $3.049 per gallon in North Platte, Nebraska (we bypassed North Platte on the way back). The cheapest gasoline was $2.629 in Downingtown, Pennsylvania.

We’re both tired! I’m looking forward to sleeping in my normal bed and I’m not setting an alarm clock. The original plan had us arriving home tomorrow evening. That means tomorrow is a “free” day! Anything that gets done tomorrow is, as Nina says, a “Bonus!”
