Finding work while on the road or at a site?

[ouroutdoorfamil]

Very new to this idea of full time RV,ing, in fact we are still researching trailers and trucks, but a big question has come up about finding work on the road. I guess our initial plan would be to RVduring the summers at National Parks and find part-time seasonal work, but during the winter months to come back to TX where we have friends who can let us park our RV on their lands, I would then look for full time seasonal work during those months.

I do design and welding wor, and have been thinking about putting together a travel welding package for both MIG and TIG, just wondering if there is a need at campsites and RV parks for basic or fast repairs that would include steel or AL welding? How often do things break, and what is the experience in trying to get it fixed?

I can't imagine any park knowingly allowing a welding shop to operate on their grounds. Way to much noise and dirt. On top of that the liability would likely be huge. Then there is the cost to the park and the question of whether or not the infrastructure exists in the park's electrical system to run such an operation. Plus, there won't be any customers. In all my years of owning parks I can't think of a single instance where an immediate welding repair was needed on something that couldn't just easily be taken to a proper welding shop.
There is a reason welding shops are in industrial areas, not in malls and residential subdivisions.
