If anyone out there in Blogland will be in these areas during our time, please let us know. We would enjoy meeting up with you. Also, if you have visited these areas and really enjoyed a certain sightseeing spot, place to eat, campground (within our frugal budget) or hiking area, we would love to add it to our agenda. Many of our stops will not be new, but we know we have missed something at each stop.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y'all back real soon. Have a great day!
Hope to see you in February. We will be in Congress til the end of February, then heading to Texas on our way to New York.
ReplyDeleteSeptember is just around the corner so you're heading out real soon. I bet you already know we'll be in many of those spots. There are Elks Lodges with hookups in Scottsdale, Boulder, City and Indio. Usury Mountain is a gorgeous park outside of Mesa and Sandie's park accepts Passport America. A SKP park and Hi Lo that accepts Passport America is in Deming.
ReplyDeleteWe aren't sure when we're heading south this year. Maybe not until November or perhaps even later. During the winter we will definitely be in Palm Springs, San Diego, Scottsdale, Tucson and Quartzsite but that's as far as we know.
You guys are really going to be tired if you do everything on your list this year.
ReplyDeleteWe won't be heading out west for a few more years. We'll be doing Florida again this year and stopping for a week in Washington before heading home. We'll be heading back to North Carolina in May and could just stop by to say hello when we're in Ohio.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
ah. . .sketchy plans are the best!
ReplyDeleteOur plans include Spring Training in AZ also. . .hopefully at the Rangers Camp.
We will most likely be in Quartzsite and Yuma in Jan/Feb. Hope we can meet up!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have some great plans for the winter. You never know we just be able to meet up in Arizona in January. We are hoping to be in that area sometime around then but like you our plans are never firm.

We will look forward to seeing some great photos of all the interesting places, people, and things you will encounter. It will be a fun ride. Lots of driving, but Paul's up for it, right? He can do just about anything!!! (Of course, that's why you married him, right?)
ReplyDeleteYou could stop by Imperial NWR while you're in Yuma. I'll be there all winter. :)
ReplyDeletewe may even see you in Yuma...
DeleteLooks like we will see you someplace in January!
ReplyDeletemaybe we will finally cross paths since we will be wintering in San Diego, Yuma, and the Mesa area... at least that is our plans right now ;)
ReplyDeleteCharleston has limited RV parks, but Marietta/Parkersburg has a lot to see-- The Mortuary Museum and Blennerhasit Island. Greenville, SC has the free BMW musuem. I love Mount Airy, NC and Mayberry RV park (PA).
ReplyDeleteThere is a PA park across the street from us in Casa Grande, AZ. Are you planning to attend the Escapade and the National Good Sam Rally in AZ in March?
The Pyrotechnic show in Lake Havasau City is worth attending.
Roswell, NM is interesting and there is a nice elks there.
That is a pretty ambitious schedule, but looks like mucho fun. Toward the end I will watch for you on the on ramps with your 'I'll work for food" signs.
ReplyDeleteWell I'm sure we will see you in one of those South-West places. We hope to be in some of them as well. No idea where or when yet but we'll save that decision for after we get to wherever it is we are going to get to:))
ReplyDeleteWe will definitely be seeing you in Q and also in AJ. And who knows. maybe somewhere else along the road. Have a great time and be safe.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure we will meet up in several places if we time it right. I was exhausted just reading your plans...another three years in six months:) Glad you are chilling in TX for the holidays. Will you fly home for Christmas? Can't wait to see you two again!!
ReplyDeleteWe, too, will be in the RGV January and February. I have two nephews and their families who live in Wytheville, VA. One of their wives work at the Walmart. Where are you staying while there?
ReplyDeleteGreat travel plans! We'll be in our usual spot in Palm Springs/Desert Hot Springs from Jan. thru March!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a ambitious plan!
ReplyDeleteWow ... that's quite the plan. In the midst of planning as I am, I am envious of anyone who's got their plans nailed down.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun. We will be in Goodyear until March 8th when we head to Tucson for Escapade.
ReplyDeletelooking forward to seeing you guys in Arizona! Our plans are less formed than yours, but we know we'll be around there in Jan and Feb.
ReplyDeleteDec, Jan, Feb, March we will be in the Arizona, California area a lot of those places on you list, not sure when exactly or how we will get there but Quartzsite for a few weeks to enjoy the rv show and stuff, Yuma, Mexico, Borrego Springs, Desert hot springs, some of our favourite areas.
ReplyDeleteI am sure we will finally meet up with you along the way.
We will be in AZ and So Cal during the times you are planning to be there. Really hope to meet the two of you this winter.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are really going to be covering some area!!! Great travel plans!!
ReplyDeleteWell Im sad, we will be nowhere where you will be on those months, nada.
ReplyDeleteOkey, maybe next year our path will crossed.
