Towing vs. Non Towing

Just wondering how you sitesee without a vehicle? We like to explore and not sit in a campground. We travel backroads, explore unique small cities and completely check out our national parks. We would never think of doing that by driving our motorhome constantly from our campground site. Just curious.

For us, we do our site seeing while driving to our next destination. We also have a 31 foot motorhome. Most of our national and state parks I can get my motorhome into while site seeing, with the exception of off roading. For that, I will pull my Jeep. I get up early, leave the campground drive two or three hours to our next destination and spend the day exploring with the motorhome. If we find a place to rest for a few hours, we have the motorhome and generator running along with all of our household amenities for comfort. After we are exhausted from spending the day out exploring, we find a place to park, or a campground. If it is a state or national park, we are camping in, we get there before sunset. We have bikes we carry with us as well. If we are within a few miles of a destination and we really want to see something after we are hooked up for the night, we get the bikes out and get a little exercise. We just got back from a two week vacation along the forgotten coast of Florida, taking us around the big bend, into south Florida and the Keys. The only time we could have used an extra vehicle was while we were in Key West, however, we would have had the problem of finding a place to park it there. We road our bikes from Boyds RV to old town Key West and explored one day. The next day we took a taxi.
