Momodolls,
The first problem is that you don't specify if your RV can function self-contained. Let's hope it can at least for one night at a time.
As a man that wore a name tag that had "Navigator" under my name, I am a planner. In that life I never had to plan more than a few days and there were seldom any options. RVing is different. One never knows what he may stumble across. There is a myriad of amazing things to see in this great country. I have found that under the best of circumstances, RV travel plans are good three days at best. So, if you need a crampground for hooksup, take advantage of modern technology and make reservations by phone while you are underway.
With the death of stand-alone planners, you are limited in what you can schedule, but it can still be done. If you travel much off the blue roads, count on being out of at least 4G data and maybe even cell access for days at a time. I have taken up printing a large scale copy of the provider's coverage map so I know which way to go to get wire.
