I really hope you find places to stay along your route. Your trip will be something like that encountered by the great depression migration. Something your children will always remember.....and grand kids will think is a fable.

Wow how depressing. At least you didn’t mention the grapes of wrath and the Kansas dust bowl. What I think they will find and see is the American spirit, people getting back to work, getting back to eating out, getting back to enjoying the great outdoors. Things will be different sure but states are opening parks, beaches, businesses, with conditions. May not be happening in California but things are looking up.

been running EB on I-40 since last Wed. started at Holbrook AZ with overnites at albuquerque and amarillo. stopping tonite in OK City. stopping now for lunch at the Flying J at Sayre OK (exit 20). most rest stops open in NM, TX and OK. truck stops open. plenty of gas. every RV park we’ve stopped ar had plenty of room (we made reservations before we left meda, az). heavy truck traffic on 40, few autos, fewer RVs. otherwise looks almost normal.

Wish we could. June seems like earliest we can get out. Lot of the COE and Fed CGs are still closed

May be time to expand your list of places to go. Plenty of state parks in your. neighboring states open for camping next week.

Heading to Myrtle Beach State Park next week. Then to Asheville and then to local state park.

UPDATE:
Chicago went well, stayed at Hyatt just to the west. $25 to stay in parking lot, even got a breakfast to go.

Leaving for CA. next week no problem making reservations at rv parks.

Agreed.

We're going to the Gulf Coast this coming weekend. One last hurrah before I start teaching again, albeit online.

Headed to Dead Horse SP Sedona, AZ May 11th.
