Your quadrant plan is good and I would figure more the 6 to 8 week time frame. In some instances you may even cover a smaller area. As far as going over old areas. It will happen over the years; but by using different routes thru them you will see different things. Keep reservations to a minimum so you have a more flexible schedule.
I'm not sure what my employment will be by then. I'm hoping for a type of job that I can do remotely. If I can work remotely, longer than 4-6 weeks is feasible, but my kids will be 14, 12 and 7... so we'll have to see how attitudes hold up. If things go well and I have a job that allows it, maybe we do southwest in the early spring and northern midwest in the fall in the same year.
I'm hoping to be able to make some reservations in advance to ensure that we can stay at some specific locations, but I am also hoping to have some chances to boondock and might use something like Boondockers Welcome to have some less traditional camping options. We plan to have a smaller generator if we need it, but I'm hopeful that April and May nights may be cool enough and dry enough not to need AC.
The hope is also to find some places that we love and want to spend some winters visiting. We've stayed at the same campground for 2 weeks every winter for almost the past 12 years and LOVE that we've met friends that winter at the same campground. We want that, but we also want to explore our options.
Looking forward to what the near future could hold, please keep giving me thoughts and ideas!
