WOW gkreutzer, what a nice trip and without a toad....did you ever wish you had one to sightsee or were you fine as you were??? We want to leave next September from Washington State and head to Maine, then south to Florida for a few months, across the southern states to Texas and then wiggle our way home. We've been debating the toad thing, especially if we stay in Florida for that long.
Gene, I like your idea of a few unique places to stay....I work at a small hospital and we do have motorhomes occasionally, I assumed visiting patients, never thought about that as an overnighter....Wal-marts are always good they say and I love the casinos, oh, you were talking about parking for the night!!
