Migration south

Departure currently around other commitments will be early to mid November. Destination Lady Lake, FL until about the 10th of April. All dates and travel times are very flexible so we will be in no hurry to get there or get back north. We are on a 6 and 6 plan with our campground so reservations are not a concern.

With Temperature here around 30 C we haven't given it much serious thought! We have a standing reservation for Jan 6 th at Boca Beach,near La Manzanilla,Jalisco,Mexico so will probably leave here before The end of December!

As my Texas friends would say, "I'm fixin' to start thinking about it." Planning on arriving at McDowell in Fountain Hills on Christmas Eve.

Forth of Nov we will roll and will spend the month of Nov in Kings Bay Ga, then on down to Miami first of Dec, till end of Mar then make our way home by way of Kings Bay In Ga again, then to North Carolina where my son lives, be home around one May

We are in Apache Junction, AZ already. Arrived last Friday the 29th. Looking at a great 2014/15 winter.

I leave after xmas. i usually stay a few days in quartzite, then head across the border into mexico for the next 4 months.

We sure hope we can figure out someway of affording to head out by the end of November.

FWIW, I know of one Canadian who comes down and buys a slide in camper and hauls it back in the spring to sell. Supposedly the profit pays for the winter. That's all I'm going to say on that, since I'm sure there is more to the story.

I just read last week how the US dollar is strong right now, it didn't even occur to me how quickly that might affect our snowbird neighbors to the north.

We're Early Birds, leaving here on September 18th. There hasn't been much of a summer here anyhow. Bugs have been worse than normal too. We'll miss the fall colors but this could be oneof those years when it snows befor the leaves fall.

John & Joey, it all adds up quickly. We made a bank to bank transfer yesterday of $5,000 to cover our rent and such in San Benito, Texas. It cost $502.12 Can for the transfer.
