travel during covid

Did a trip from Iowa to Glacier NP in Late Aug. Three weeks with stops in between. No problems. Stayed away from major cities where Corona seems to be worse.
Some CG Restrictions, but workable. Masks when needed.
Had a great trip. Next year, hopefully upstate NY and VT, NH, and Maine.

We've changed some tactics, but we haven't cancelled much.

We're heading out to camp after work today.

We finally broke out of Texas at the end of June, managed almost 3 months in Arizona (I know, crazy time of year to go there - but we got to see granddaughter who lives with her mother there for the first time in over 3 years and some cousins).

I was having to deal with state park closures, travel restrictions and such at least once a week. Even when we headed back to Texas twice we had to seek alternate RV parks, either because of closures or too full.

Going to stay in the Texas area rather than go to Florida this winter. Well, we have a granddaughter wedding in Miami on Mar 27, but have to be back in Texas a few days later for another family event. Too far to drive too long day after day for me. We will fly.

If we are not in another COVID lockdown.

I've pretty much limited my travel to my state...California...and my visits to grocery stores and gasoline stations.

We cancelled our fall and spring trips to the mountains. We als have not used the R V in nearly a year all due to the crud going around.

How many of us have changed our plans because of covid? we have canceled 1 long trip because of quarantine regulations.

And yet more people hit the road in RVs than any other year!
Guess some are paranoid and some aren’t....

Now Xing international borders is basically off limits, but the rest of the country is fair game and wfo, especially if you have a RV.

Actually due to the China Virus limitations on youth sports, we’ve had MORE time to go camping, with the kids and still have made a few hockey tournaments for the younger boy in ID, AZ and MN.
Which is nice since our state is socialist and has killed youth sports largely.

Not RVing but scrapped one trip to FL and one to AK. FL was in March, just when the stuff was hitting the fan, and AK was supposed to be August. Just too much stress to deal with.

Scrubbed everything, the rallies that are usually what gets us to going places were all cancelled. Then DW's shoulder replacement finished off the rest.

Not snowbirding this year.

same here. not directly becuz of covid but more concerned that the mgmt of our park will panic and shut down all activities.

Made all our camping trips except one. That was changed from an out of state week to an instate week to avoid quarantine.
Now the cruise we had scheduled in May 2020.... Got our money back for that one.
