Re: Campground Near Chicago
We liked Fish Lake Beach Campground. Full hook ups, a beach, close to Great America amusement park and close to a Metra station which is the train that will take you to downtown Chicago. It is in Volo, Illinois. We spent a month there and enjoyed it.360Views0likes0CommentsRe: chicago campgrounds
We have spent time at Fish Lake Beach and Chicago/Northwest KOA. Both are fine. I90 is under construction near the Chicago/Northwest KOA so Fish Lake might be a good place to try. It is near Fox Lake and public transportation to Chicago. Yes it is mostly seasonal residents but the location is good and the campground was fine.285Views0likes0CommentsRe: Camping in Cody, WY
We stayed at Yellowstone Valley last summer for two weeks. We used it as the base camp for our visit to Yellowstone and the surrounding area. There was a great deal of driving to get into and around Yellowstone. For us it was no big deal. Cody was great to visit. The Buffalo Bill Museum was outstanding. We city slickers loved the rodeo. We visited the Internment Camp and learned a great deal. We loved the Beartooth Pass and Chief Joseph Scenic Highway. When we return to the area we would not hesitate to repeat what we did again.453Views0likes0CommentsRe: Bounder "Classic" Info.....
We have a 2011 Bounder Classic 36R. We bought it with 1200 miles on it. We have experienced a few very minor problems and one big one. We lost all electric because of a short and had to have the power supply rewired. The minor problems are the normal things you see on motorhomes. Cabinet finishes, minor leak in the slide seal during a heavy rain, propane alarm. None of these were terrible and were easily fixed. We have put over 10,000 miles on our 36R and are very happy with it. We did remove the couch and put in home theater seats. We would consider another Bounder again if we were looking for another coach. Terry470Views0likes0CommentsRe: Family
The most difficult thing for us was leaving the kids and grandkids when we went full-time over a year ago. We still miss them but can deal with it because of the things that we have seen and the places we have been. We went back to the home area for a month to be near them. We maybe saw them three times. All are busy with their lives. Use Skype. Use Facebook. Use text messaging but see all that you can. Do everything you want because there are no guarantees for tomorrow. Live it up, the meter's running!315Views0likes0CommentsRe: Florida Sun Pass
We have the one with the suction cups so we can use it on the car or the MH. We are in the Orlando area so we use the Sun-Pass on the toll roads and for parking at the airport. Very useful for the six months that we are down here. We put money in automatically at $20 increments. We bought ours at a CVS Pharmacy.430Views0likes0Comments
