Who else feels the pull to head north.

I just got the itch to start heading north. Must not be the only one since the park is beginning to empty. Makes me wonder if we're not like those birds that we're compared to. Who else feels the urge to start the slow migration.

I suppose if you put the pedal to the metal and get back in 4-5 days that urge might not exist. For those that vacation their way back north, when is your expected departure date.
  • Calling for snow this weekend in Delaware! Think I will wait a week or two and then SLOWLY wander north. Currently in Brooksville, Florida.
  • As Full-Timers, we can go whenever we please. We are leaving Yuma April 5th and taking our time getting back to Idaho. We have some friends and family to stop and see along the way. Have an appointment at the dealership in Oregon on April 20th. Should be back in Idaho somewhere around the end of April, perhaps the first part of May. Life is good!

    Yup, I got in a hurry and paid the price. If I would have left TexOhoma two days sooner, I might have been able to thread the needle. Instead, winter storm Selene put up a huge wall between me and home. We have a rule never to get back before April 15'th, but I got homesick this year.

    For those that like to stay south till late (and then poke fun at mobile RV'ers for their slow migration) then sprint north in a car staying in hotels for 2-5 nights , this is what you're missing.

    No bugs, no matting 'gators, no snakes, no cockroaches, no AC to stay comfortable, 70's during the day, with 50's during the night, and clean smelling air with the scent of blooms. Just your wonderful simple springtime weather with robins looking for lunch.

    Today in MO:

  • Still down in Mexico, currently just south of Mazatlan, but slowly headed north
