Thanks to all who replied. I'm definitely going to take a few of the suggestions especially dropping by Niagara Falls. One of the conundrums I have is not being able to stop an extra day here or there if you find an interesting place because the reservations lock you in to being at a certain place on a certain day. I'm thinking of only making reservations in the busiest places like Custer S.P. Yellowstone, Niagara Falls etc and taking my chances that I'll find a spot to camp otherwise along my route. I'd like to get your thoughts on that. When we headed out in 2010 we never planned more than 2 days out and never had a problem. We traveled through most of the Eastto Tennessee then the South and Southwest.
We stayed at The Branches of Niagara CG a couple years ago. Nice place, nice pool, far 'nuff off the interstate, yet still close to it (no noise unlike the KOA). Not too far from the falls. While in the area, there is in Buffalo,a WWII ship & sub along their pier/waterfront as well as home of the chicken wings (ongoing battle between Duff's and Anchor Bar). We ate at the AB and wasn't impressed w/ it. IF by chance the border is open, I'd suggest the CA side to view the falls and if possible arrange to have dinner atop the Skylon tower (if open).
