Morning all!!
As the subject states, my wife and I are currently planning on heading back to Michigan mid-March from Quartzsite.
We will more than likely be taking I-10E to US70 --> US52 (to avoid ALBQ NM), up to I40 E.
Question I have is regarding RV parks that time of year.
Am I going to have a problem finding a campground that is open? Being from Michigan most parks are not open until April/May. Not being from the West side of the country, am I going to have a problem finding places to stay on our way home?
Any help/suggestions always welcome,
Hope everyone's winter is going well!

i assume you'll pick up I-40 east of ABQ but I-40/I-44 split off at OK City. I-44 heads east to St. Louis while I-44 heads towards Memphis.
years ago we used to head towards AZ from metro Chicago along I-40/44 in early-to-mid march and had no trouble finding a spot once we crossed from IL to MO. there WAS a nice park in Effingham IL but it went downhill fast but then we haven't stopped in for maybe 10-years. our fav spots once you are east of ABQ are the 270 Lakeside Park in St. Peters, MO (along I-270), Big Red Barn in Carthage, MO (along I-44) and Twin Fountains RV Park in OK City.
