Snow Birds ??

To all the snow birds who go to Florida, Texas etc. for the winter are you still planning on going with this COVID-19 thing going on? My wife and I finally retired this spring and were excited about spending the winter in Florida in our new 5th wheel. Now we are not sure what to do. We already went down last year and picked out a place to stay but we are holding off making reservations to see what’s going to happen with this virus. Just wanted to see what everyone else is doing. Thanks

    Moving this to the Snowbird forum where it will probably get more response than here in the 5th wheels.

    We made the hard decision to stay home this winter. Because so many medical professionals are warning about a 2nd wave of infections, we wanted to be where our support system is.

    We have already reserved and plan to winter in South Texas on South Padre Island as usual. Only thing that would stop us would be the US border remaining closed.
    I would make your reservations or you may not get in. You can always cancel a few months out and get back most of your money.

    I have a fifth-wheel and am going. I don't know what Class As or Cs are doing.
