I've done something fairly similar but it was when I was in middle school. I'd alternate nights of camping and motels, if for no other reason than to feel clean more often. But that's me. Also, don't be afraid to change your plans because of the weather. There's a running family joke about my dad trying to get us to stop at a campground in Eastern Colorado late one afternoon with storm clouds looming. After we had one tent set up, my mom basically put her foot down and insisted that we all stay in whatever motel we could find. I think divorce was mentioned, but we ended up at some motel at a wide spot in the road with tornados 5 miles away and the streets literally overflowing with rainwater. The storm dumped like 2" in an hour or something like that.
Stop at the Dinosaur National Monument in Utah (I think). That's one of the coolest places I've ever been, but I was a 13 year-old boy at the time and easily impressed.
