We aren't afraid, but as full-timers, and elderly with several underlying health conditions - making our semi-annual doctor appointments is important.
We will travel, but in August I could not get reliable information on campsite availabilities in Utah and Colorado, so we stayed several extra weeks in Arizona before coming back to Texas.
We never saw crowded campgrounds, except near Flagstaff and Alpine, TX. New Mexico closing their state parks, then only allowing state residents cost me close to $100 when the state cancelled my paid reservations, and does not refund the $12 per reservation booking fee.
Texas State Parks were impossible to get into on our way back.
We adapt.
