@SethGreene531 I think this is the photo you are talking about. We really enjoyed Key West. RV sites there are so hard to find. That one was a last minute cancellation and it was right on the water. 😊
@Musicman Those are some great destinations. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Looking to tour Vermont and New Hampshire also, and work down into the Adirondacks. You'll love Maine, and the whole North East.
Canada's a must see also. The Rockies, plains, arctic circle tours and cruises. I think there's a train trip like Amtrack up there as well.
@Musicman I agree. Alaska will kill an RV. Especially going to places like Dawson City, etc. Leave it to the pro's. Take a cruise.
It is rather extreme. Good travel, like you say, need not require going to the ends of the earth. There's lots to be seen in the Rockies of Colorado, the Tetons of Wyoming, and the base of the Sierra Nevada.
You've already checked off some items on your must see list.
I've seen parts of Tennnessee..Chattanooga, Knoxville; but not iconic Memphis or Nashville yet. Small portions of Kansas in the sticks, ans parts of the nearby plain states.
Had a maintenance job offer in OK, but their summers hit 108!!
A guy I knew was from tiny Casper WY, inspiring mental imagery like something from a western. I remember a live radio show, and a trucker checked in going through the Beartooth Pass overnight in heavy winds. It really inspired the wanderlust.
@SethGreene531 On that trip we stayed the night on the way out and back in Oakley Kansas. It was a small farm town. They only had three restaurants. The town was only a couple of blocks long.
When we evacuate for hurricanes Chattanooga is our go to place. We really like it there.
@Musicman Neat. The 1 block, 2 restaurant towns are a marvel. A way of life most haven't seen likely.
Chatanooga is a realistic driving distance, and puts a good buffer between you and the bulk of the storm. There's ample services available also; good place to be in a time of crisis.
Someone I knew on SW had family in Chicago. They'd flee the gulf coast and fly there instead.
@SethGreene531 Exact! We always have a couple of cases of water with us. We usually have a couple of Premier Protein Chocolate drinks with us too. Sometimes my wife will cut up an apple for us to share or get us cheese and crackers. We have a full size residential refrigerator.
@Musicman That will hold a lot of lemonade 👍 😎 Ample kitchen space too!
The flexibility for refreshments is limitless. It also cuts back on needless expenditures at gas bars fueling up.
Keeping your hydration, electrolytes, and protein stable through water, fruit, and shakes is key. I've heard of Premier Protein but not tried it yet. Drank a fair bit of Ensure, some Boost.
