Onthego Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 The blog has been on hold while we were back in New Braunfels (2/25) after the trip to Arizona. Doing some of the same stuff we did before Arizona trip. Now on the move again will start blogging again.

GzrGldGeo Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 We are still full timing. After a trip to Alaska we are now work camping. We are finishing a gig in Vidalia, LA that we loved. (At least until a lady chewed me out for blowing leave on her truck today with the mower. Some people need to get a life. She thought of me as a hourly minimum wage person. If she only knew. Oh well her issue and not mine. We are leaving here and going through DFW for the kids, grandkids, doctors, etc. Then on to Gunnsion, CO where we will work the summer. We are having a blast and have no regrets.

LFDR3116 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 We are still full-timing. Started May 2011. We are currently in our last week of volunteer hosting at a NF park in Alabama. We head out a week from today making our way back to MI for the summer where we will work for a concessionaire at a forestry campground. Not a lot of travel yet, but hope to not work winter 2013/14 and just travel (southern areas of course). Pat DeJong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onthego Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 We seem to change our mind constantly when and where we are going. This time it's due to weather. Made an appointment to have some work done to the RV in Denver on 4/18. Looks like snow and cold there until 4/18. Hope I can change the appointment to 4/22 that's when our reservations begin at Cherry Creek State Park in Denver/Aurora. Currently in Ponca City, Ok. to see friends. Tomrrow we'll go to Amarillo and wait for better weather.

Onthego Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 We made it to Denver and got setup as the snow storm moved in Monday. I lived here most of my life and I don't care for snow and cold anymore. If it wasn't for my daughter's wedding in a couple of weeks I wouldn't be here this early. Its suppose to be in the 70's this weekend.

We didn't go to the dump so I can't tell you where it is, but if you ask enough people someone will tell you. And don't forget to get Hyderized if you haven't yet.

There is always room for another rig. What did you like/ dislike about Florida? It's all new there to us. Thanks. Jeff I would say your biggest decision about wintering in Florida is how much you will want to see/move while you are there. It is a huge state with a ton of potential things to see and do and that could have you moving frequently. On the other hand, it can be a great place just to relax and enjoy warm weather during a winter before heading out on travels again. You will have to decide what balance of those two is right for you. You will need to make decisions about cost – it is cheaper in the cooler north and down the center of the state (except right near Orlando of course) and will be more expensive the closer to the coasts and the further south that you go. Going to the Keys or not is a major decision as well as they are almost a destination of their own and likely an expensive one, but one that could be very memorable. We had been to Florida several times before we first went there in the motor home winter before last. For a whole variety of reasons we decided on a four-month stay in one park, Willow Lakes in Titusville. We didn’t know Texas nearly as well so we moved around during our winter there as we will in Arizona this winter (including Quartzite). As Florida is all new to you, I would think you would likely want to see a lot of it. See the north on the way down and on the way back up when it will be warmer there and get to the farther south for January/February. Fort Meyers and Naples are very warm and popular areas with lots of parks. There don’t seem to be as many parks in the southern Atlantic region, but you could day trip there in your car. Beyond all the obvious Florida stuff to do, here are a few others you might consider. Spring Training – lots of ballparks all over Florida with games in March. The RV Show in Tampa in January – it is one of the largest shows in the Country Lazy Days RV Center near Tampa– maybe the largest RV dealer site in the Country, but with the obvious risk that you might lighten your bank account Cedar Key – a neat old Gulf town out of the way of everything else north from Tampa. Friends of ours spent most of their winter near there. Don’t forget the Panhandle – some of the finest white sand beaches especially toward the west You can look at our blog if you like for how we spent our time mainly in one place and here is the address for the blog of another 2011 Class Member who moved around a lot in Florida during the same winter http://zeetraveler.blogspot.com/ Hope some of this will be helpful.

We're camp hosting at Palm Harbor RV Park on Aransas Bay a little south of Rockport. Going to be here until April--then next summer in Colorado.
