DW and I talked about traveling before getting the MH, and now that we have it she does nothing but complain. We have boondocked and she dislike that so we stay in parks. We were at our son's place foe the month of Feb, less travel time, so say 3 weeks and she complained about that--too cold, too long, want to go home.
So now I am planning our summer trip to go to Oregon to see our granddaughters and the new--currently underway--great granddaughter. Then on to MT, SD, IA, the home. OK she says but only for a max of 2 months, we leave the 25th of May and she says we WILL be home by the 25th of July. A 4-5 month excursion turned into a 2 month shotgun ride. To be quite honest she doesn't even want to go. I suggested that I drive out there and she can fly later and I will pick her up in Portland see the grand daughters and great granddaughter, go to MT with me to see her brother, and then fly home while I drive the rest of the way home. THAT was a mistake!!!
So long story short, I totally understand what you are going thru. Her idea of travelling was 1 week to maybe 10 days 3-4 times a year and stay at home the rest of the time. What the hell did we buy it for if it is going to do nothing more than occupy space in the driveway for 325 days out of the year? I hate motel room, but we would have been money ahead to travel that way for what she wants to do with it. You would think we are still working and having to take short vacations instead of retired and able to go with impunity.
