weird idle after rough road

So I was driving into work yesterday. About an hour of rough bumpy roads into camp. When i went to park the truck, I put it into park and notice that my idle had gone up about 300-400 rpm. The only thing I have done, mods wise, is turn my power screw 2 turns and re-adjust my idle accordingly. I checked all my throttle linkage and that wasn't the problem.
Anyone experianced anything like this? Should I just re-adjust my idle again, seems weird that it would do this. My truck has been on rougher roads with no problems before....
