Weather, weather, weather and water in that order .....
We want to wear T-shirts and sandals all the time, and preferably see the water a lot. The State Parks in the Keys are our favorites, but it is a pain to get a site reservations, you have to haul your sewage, and you can only stay in a given park two weeks at a time. We have pretty well resigned ourselves to grabbing the checkbook, and writing big checks for waterfront sites in private Keys RV Parks, but still have to plan way ahead, and often get on a waiting list until a site opens up. Most of these parks require to to pay up front. Once we get to the Middle of March or so,we start moving further north, usually the West Coast - prices go down and the reservations get easier the further you move north in the Spring. We usually end up in Cedar Key, the Panhandle, and/or St Augustine before heading back to New Jersey when the weather breaks.
