Are we really "full timing"?
Fun topic. We are purchasing our first RV and will be living in it full time in Daytona Beach, Florida. We will be there for a few years before we actually move it. At least for any length of time. So...

It seems to upset some people but I've thought we should adopt more clear terms for what you are doing:
- Stationary: Living in an RV park or on private land and never (or almost never) moving the RV.
- Snowbird/Sunbird: Traveling south in the winter but largely staying put once you get there.
- Traveler: You move at least monthly.
I'm not upset but since I like the northern snow and cold weather I'm suggesting a change in the Snowbird classification. What I don't like is all the short overcast winter days up north, they make me depressed. That's why I'll winter over in AZ into the future.

I don't object but snowbird is the one catagory that is already in fairly common usage.
I also didn't clarify what happens in summer as there are two distinct subspecies:
- Those that go back to a single spot up north (sometimes a house, sometimes an RV site)
- Those that travel about for the summer.
Good point, in fact that would be me since I do travel about quite a bit during the spring, summer, and fall. It's just that nasty SAD that keeps me settled in one spot during the winter, plus southeast AZ offers me terrific recreational opportunities.
