How long do you stay in one place?

Most B campers are not full timers, so I'm posting this here (can only be wrong). As a B camper we generally move around a lot. Retired, but have family commitments at home, so time is still precious, but not restrictive. From the midwest we have traveled mostly throughout the south and as an example went to see St Augustine last year. Spent 4 days getting there, a night here, a night there, not in a hurry and enjoying the trip. Arrived at our destination and spent 3 days and 2 nights and got "happy feet" or the itch to be on the road again and see what's around the next bend. Headed up the coast to Savannah, and worked our way home from there. A 2-1/2 week extremely enjoyable trip.
My question is: Do other B owners, or campers in general, move about as often as we do? Or are we the odd duck out? What's your trip like? Do you seek a destination and spend a week or so, or meander about as we do?

Thanks
Our 2351D Phoenix Cruiser, Jack, has turned us from campers into RVers and loving it!

As B campers, we stay maybe 5 days maximum. More often, just a night or two. We do a lot of sightseeing, though we veg out a little longer and stare at the water when in Florida sometimes.

The last time we went from coast to coast it took us 2 months to get there and back, and the longest we stayed anywhere was 5 days. But on the way back to CT we decided to stop at Myrtle Beach and ended up staying there for 3 more weeks. We don't know where we will end up or how long we might stay till we get there.

So far our getaways are only a couple days because we have our kids. We take the Bounder with them and the dogs. We are planning a trip to the Albuquerque ballon Fiesta next month for 4 days with just me and mama.

It is quite variable. We generally go for 25-35 days and will target 2 or 3 areas we want to visit. Within each area we might spend several days at one place and then move on or we might stay at a single place.
