Trying to talk wife into...

Question for Eddie @wayoflife, @Disciple Off Road , or anyone else out west.

Is anything happening out west around the Fourth of July, 2026?

If so, I can make a 2 week vacation out of this and only use 8 of 10 days for vacation. LOL


Wife just said, and I need to quote this for future reference:

"Yellowstone is not a must, we can always plan another trip for that. Especially if we can find something fun to do."
It's hard to write anything in stone this early on but typically, there's always something going on.
 
No, Jeep maintenance keeps your swear dictionary healthy and the mind sharp (y)

4th of July you’re gonna want to be up north. Unless you want to experience the devil’s anus.
I live in Oklahoma. We may not get the extreme heat as the high desert. But 95 here feels like 105. And we will see 30+ days over 100 with the humidity over 30%.

If that is what you are referring to when you say "devil's anus." 😂
 
But it's hot. Doesn't matter if it is lower humidity. The only benefit is sweat doesn't pour out as soon as you open the door. Takes a few steps out the door for that. 😂
No sweat just evaporates then you die 🤣
Arizona is the devil's anus, hot but relatively dry. Texas, Oklahoma surrounding area is the devil's sweaty nutsack; as soon as you step outside you're getting tea bagged

Say what you like- 90 degrees with 90% humidity in Conroe Texas really took it out of me. Felt like I was breathing steam through a thick blanket and I was wet & sticky during the summer. I hate wet & sticky.

118 degrees in Tucson, Phoenix or the Mojave Desert where it was dry, was more bearable. I didn’t feel like I was being cooked from the inside out with each breath and it was actually cooler in the shade. While the monsoons in Arizona or a summer rain in Mojave was wet, it cooled the air and didn’t turn it muggy. The rain in Texas just made it muggy.

That said, the years I lived in Arizona, I worked at the Grand Canyon National Park Airport which at 6500 feet. Temperature rarely got much over 90 degrees and my sons and I spent a lot of time outdoors in the Cherokee exploring
