No horror stories here in my home state...I recomend Nashville's Opryland ,Dollywood at Sevierville,and for night life,Memphis' Beale Street...also,moving on South,New Orleans and Miami Beach...btw,Memphis has the Pyramid'converted into the most unique Bass Pro Shop ...right down by the river near the river boats...good luck in your travels...fflintstone

I have been thinking of doing this as well. Been looking at motor homes for a year now but have a few things to get done first. Look at the roofs and down the out side walls, make sure walls are not bowing out or have a wave to them. This means roof was leaking. Good luck to you and one more thing, do you have room for one more? LOL

I traveled Kansas and that state has road side rest stops that are free to camp at, They allow tents as well. I love to sleep out in a tent even with the RV. The stops are well lit and patrolled by cops a bit. Soda snacks and nice rest rooms as well. Whats in Kansas Well quite a bit I assure you. Go to the library and you can do all the book research you need. Good Luck ;D

We were part timers for about 10 years, now we are full timing soon be two years. Been in 46 of the lower 48. Missed Delaware and RI. Have no plans to back to catch them. We have a 33 foot Winnebago with a rack for the YY250T and tow a Smart behind that. In the last year and a half we've been in 31 states. Just following the good weather. Terrilee, sorry about your extended vacation!
