Home was where we PARKed IT, These are some of the photos during our RV travels. We full timed for 2 years (no house, no apartment or anywhere permanent other than the RV), It's life changing, once you sell everything you own and hit the road. Loved every minute of it. Lots of nice people enjoy the RV lifestyle from all over the country. One place up north we stayed, we met a couple who stayed at the RV park we stayed at in Florida all the time, and another owned a park we stopped at the week before. As a full time RVer we often got told "I would love to do that, but my spouse wouldn't' give up the house" from both Men and Women. Everyone wants the feeling of being free and not tied down anywhere but not everyone is willing to let go. If you do, you probable wouldn't regret it. Even if you put everything in storage as a backup. We did have a little storage unit for some of the stuff we just couldn't part with. We made our RV like home, even with it being brand new we made some changes to make it feel more like our home. Most of the time in one place (in Florida) but when we hit the road, a few weeks here, a few weeks there was great. long enough to see the area (or family and friends) and not long enough feel like we lived there.
We ordered a brand new Coachman Somerset 35ft 5th wheel complete a generator, sleeper sofa (for guest) and even a Fireplace, and a brand new Diesel Ford F250 superduty (Crew Cab) put over 75K miles on the Truck in less than 2 years. Now it's part of our cherished past, one we will remember forever.

Manchester KOA, Manchester Tennessee, Very nice friendly people, Nice park - I would recommend staying here.
Hidden Valley RV Resort & Campground, Milton Wisconsin. Very nice, very large park, If we travel through again, it will be a stop for us, and I would recommend it.
Lakehead Boat Basin & RV Park, Duluth Minnesota. The strangest place we parked at so far but it's so convenient to Canal Park and Downtown Duluth. Its a winter boat storage and summer RV parking 12 full hookups 18 with w/e (we Loved it) If you know Canal Park & Downtown Duluth you know how convenient it is to be this close. Highly recommended.
Munising Tourist Park Campground, Munising Michigan (Nice park right on Lake Superior in the upper peninsula of Michigan)
KOA-Detroit/Greenfield, Ypsilanti Michigan (Visiting our friend in Ann Arbor, this was the Closest RV Park, It was very nice with a pond - we did a campfire every night) I recommend a stay here.
Niagara Falls KOA Niagara Falls New York (the park was OK didn't spend much time there, we spent it all at the Falls)
Pinewood Lodge Campground, Plymouth Massachusetts (Nice park, right out side of historic Plymouth and the Mayflower - we were there for our son's wedding in Boston) I loved the park and would recommend it for anyone visiting Plymouth area.
Cedar Haven Campground, Freeport Maine (Freeport = L.L. Bean !! Love it !!) Park was cute, lovely lady ran the park when we were there, I recommend a stay here for sure, just don't drive up Friday, traffic from Boston to Maine was a time killer.
Riverdale Farm Campsite, Clinton Connecticut (Closest park to New York - Visiting my niece in Norwalk CT an hour away but worth it), the park is nice and I recommend a stay here.
Outdoor World-Gateway to Cape Cod Campground, Rochester Massachusetts (Very nice and very big, hundreds of sites and kids (Private park normally Club members only) we would consider a membership if we were up in north more often.
81-80 RV Park and Campground, Mountaintop Pennsylvania (nice stop through passing through the mountains) the pool was nice. don't know what was around here, just passing through but I recommend it.
KOA Lion Country Safari, West Palm, Florida, Very nice visiting family before leaving for our northern trip, it's an adventure at the drive through zoo. The park was nice, you can hear the animals at night. I recommend it but it's far from everything else.
Breezy Palms RV Park, Palm Bay Florida. (last winter site - recently sold to a developer) Great people, Nice park, location is good, I recommend it.
Ocala Ranch RV Park Ocala Florida (Very nice.. we were there for the winter 06/07 - Heated pool - BIG RIG Site) Loved it here. weren't there when it got busy but it's a nice park and nice layout, I recommend it.
Amy's South Georgia RV Park (Quick stop passing through) Don't know what to say about this one, pulled in at 4pm and left at 7am it was ok for stopping by nothing to brag about.
Savannah South KOA, Savannah Georgia. Nice park right off 95, Close enough to Savannah I could recommend it without feeling bad. (but next time were trying Tybee Island).
Pine Lake Campground, Columbus Georgia. (Nice, family owned, we have been there a few times) Recommend it if your visiting Columbus, but if you don't mind a drive Try the BASE (if your military) that looked nice, but it's out there.
Long Point Park, Melbourne Beach Florida. Had fun here, Nice and big almost it's own island. Recommend it (highly if you like fishing).
(Just North of Sebastian inlet bridge on the barrier island near Melbourne FL)
Orbit RV Park, Grant Florida,
The 1st place we stayed when we first got our RV, It was OK but nothing to brag about, when it rained it stayed wet for days and for what we were paying, it wasn't worth it. I don't recommend this one.
