Dennis,
In my opinion, the best way to use this forum is by browsing. Click on a few topics and read them to get a feel for how the questions and answers proceed. You will probably learn something, you will likely be offended by someone, and you will get a few laughs along the way.
When you are ready, find the most likely forum, there all almost 40 of them, click on "Post New Topic" and pose your question.
Some hints:
Include meaningful information in the subject line. General statements like "need help" require the responder to open and read your entire post. People like me who are browsing will respond when they see a subject line that interests them, or that they feel they can positively contribute to the conversation.
Be specific with your question. Include personal information that might be relevant, such as the size and type of your rig, personal preferences, etc. This will prevent a delay while a potential responder gets clarification from you.
Try searching a forum with keywords before you ask your question. You are likely not the first one to ask certain things.
Finally, have a thick skin. Everyone says there is no such thing as a stupid question, but this is a public forum, and everyone has the right to comment. You will find however, that most people on the forum are friendly and helpful.
From your original post, it looks like you might be interested in the the Roads and Routes forum, or in the RV Parks, Campgrounds, and attractions forum.
Perfect answer. Another idea for things to see/do along the way would be to list the kinds of things you're interested in so we can zero in on choices.
If your trip is planned to move around and test out different areas, I wouldn't recommend locking yourself into making tons of reservations. There are always spots available for short stays. That's what we've found anyway.
Above all...always keep in mind that when you receive a flippant, rude, condenscending reply to a post to ignore it. Most RVers are very helpful. The few that are combative aren't worth your attention.
Have a great trip and hope you get some warm weather. :)
