Advice Please - CO to CA Coast

Glad you enjoyed the trip, despite a few adventures. Sounds like you saw a Great Blue Heron. Normally a wading fish and frog hunter, but they love a fat gopher. I have seen them catch gophers in my front yard

Thanks for the notes and all you did to make that coast a good place to visit.

Heron are also in Colorado but I'm used to seeing them around water so I figured they ate fish, crawfish, frogs... they sometimes visit our neighbors ponds. We have also seen masses of migrating herons in local corn stubble... but now I know they eat gophers too! We have a few voles that decorate the lawn under snowpack. Maybe they'll find them!

It seems similar to the RVTripWizard site I started looking at. Anyone have any experience with both of these to compare? The Roadtrippers lets you share trip plans which would be helpful for communicating with my wife.

We have heard of Harvest Hosts and will look into it. This does seem a good option for overnights. My guess is lots of competition for few sites. How hard has it been to book when you wanted?
