I was out in my rig the week before…I don’t go camping on major holidays way too packed for me.
Sitting in a smaller, less known campground in Door County Wisconsin. Beautiful weather to start this years camping season. Kevin
Going to Washington state samboree in Moses Lake the next weekend
We will as we full time in it.
As Warren said, we are fulltimers, we always are in our RVs
Headed out for a few days on Tuesday. Weather will be better and no crowds..
We agree with Mike. Way to crowded on holidays. A lot of twice a year campers with a pup tent and a 12 pack.
We are on our trip to Alaska, as a matter of we will be in Alaska this Memorial Day
I’m ALWAYS in my RV because I’m a full-timer, but I won’t be on the road as I’m parked for the month of May in a campground.
Not in the RV this year at Memorial Day, however will start my full-timing life the 1st day of June. See ya all out there.
Boondocking is the way I want and plan to live.
Not this year but we do have reservations in a campground May 30.
we’ll be there for at least 2 months.
We will be sleeping in our trailer tonight and tomorrow night. We will be hanging out in our ’94 Mallard, doing some little projects as we continue to get her ready for traveling after I retire in August.
I avoid traveling during major holidays. Roads, parks, and campgrounds are just too packed anymore. I would like to hear how others deal with rv’ing during major holidays.
