We're from the Midwest and our short camping trips with the kids were done in our state or a nearby state. Our big 2-week trips were to places most folks want to take their family such as Smokey Mtn. N.P., Yellowstone or Rocky Mtn. N.P.
When we began full-timing we wanted to experience longer periods of time in the West because before it took so long to get out there during our working years. We began chipping away state by state and exploring every portion of the states, not just the big main attractions. We loved traveling the secondary roads and the friendly small towns. Over the 16 years of full-timing we returned to our favorite areas time after time. We also did things on our bucket list such as whole summers in Alaska and rafting the Grand Canyon.
Inbetween times we did return occasionally to the Midwest, East and South but soon discovered that the West was where we felt more at home and that's where we stayed.
