Flexibility = Colorado Fall Colors

We should be heading west to Monument Valley today.

Instead, we are heading east … retracing our path from last Sunday via US-160. Once we get to I-25, we’ll be heading north … going back home.

No worrries … nothing serious … no illness or any mechanical issues. It’s just a glitch with an expensive THY flight voucher that has us canceling our road trip.

After spending considerable time going back and forth with THY these past few days, this morning we agreed to fly to Turkey on the 29th … that’s September 29th … four days hence.

We’ll get home tonight; make whatever additional logistical arrangements that are required tomorrow — including winterizing the Cruiser; pack our bags on Tuesday; fly to YYZ on Wednesday — tickets on THY were priced closest to the amount of the voucher out of this airport in Toronto … half of what it would have cost to fly out of any of the USA gateways; fly to Turkey on Thursday. Whew!

Now to figure out a way to get home from Turkey! But I need to wait until I have a steady cell signal to do my research. In the time, I’m going to enjoy the ride.

Our reward for being flexible enough to make this switcheroo with our travel plans? Beautiful fall foliage colors. We weren't expecting to see these colors in our home state this year. It was amazing to see how much color has been added along US-160 in the short week since we passed this way … going west at the time.

Thus ends this year’s Two to Travel’s RV journeys!Read more
