Tourer or Destinationer?
The Yuk to some of the popular destinations thread got me wondering if we're in the minority or majority. Do you drive to a destination and then spend the majority of you time at this one location? Or...

We are full timers and usually have one destination each year.
This summer we came to just south of the Mackinac Bridge in Michigan for my wife to spend a couple day long visits with her best friend from high school. From April 30 to Sept 17, 6,000 miles, 22 campgrounds, 6 national parks, monuments, lakeshore, river. Takes my a swim in four of the Great Lakes,
2017 was a week visiting her daughter in Portland Oregon. 2016 was mostly in Texas and Arkansas while settling my fathers estate. 2015 was a six month volunteer session in Connecticut to see her brother. He passed May 2016.
The journey from TX to CT included my fathers 90th birthday in Arkansas, her eldest granddaughter wedding in Ft Lauderdale, FL , my eldest first cousin’s first great grand child birth in Virginia,
Along the miles I’ve hit many bucket list items like Yellowstone and the Statue of Liberty, cousins of mine from Seattle to Jacksonville, FL.
This Christmas our goal is to meet her second great grand child in Orlando, and celebrate her 80th birthday with her son and family in Ft Lauderdale.
I guess we are tourers.
