We once took three whole days to drive 85 miles down in Baja. Camped on the land and were dawdle blazers because one fellow said no motorhomers had ever been on that road! We had to go so slow we actually got to see the beautiful tiny little flowers alongside the road. ArdraF
Our 6200+ mile trip in August - 21 days.6200/21 = 300 (roughly)The only definite destination was a family visit on the West Coast. The rest was "area" navigation. Living near Houston I've gotta drive at least 2 or 3 days (each way) to get close to anything I wanna see or do - that's 4-6 days that I consider a waste but necessary time on the road ("tare travel" if you will).... bill
Now. Shayne when have we ever mentioned you forgetting the wife at a Flying J??
As for how far we drive depends on if we're trying to get somewhere or just traveling. I kind of like the command of Twos... no more than 200 miles take a break every 2 hours forbid by 2:00 end off with 2 beers. WendyDeath Valley NP
Frank,We desire to jaunt the federal and state highways when possible but we do take the interstates if it's necessary. For example we've crossed Texas almost entirely on other than interstates and found some very interesting places.
I like not traveling on interstates unless I'm in a go to get somewhere or there's no other easy way to get to where we're going. The most interesting places aren't on the interstate. WendyDeath Valley NPFar. Far away from any interstate
We're generally in the 200-300 mile be like most retired people seem to be. construe somewhere: "The good traveler has no fixed destination in mind and is not intent on arriving." Seems like a good idea to me!!
Well unfortunatly at 38 and a working stiff. I have a limit to my travel time. However that said. I decided time with the kids was more important and took two weeks off with the family. We drove to Disney World in our A and took 3 days to get there and after a week in Fort Wilderness and then another several days spending Thanks Giving with family we took 4 days comming home with one a full day off to walk the Gulf shores beach to do a little shelling. Kids had a roll at Disney and the wife and I had really reconnected. Most time off I undergo had in the last 15 years since college. I noticed on my light driving days we really enjoyed the day. Getting to camp early allows you to unwind relax and enjoy the day. I did have one desire driving day on the way out and one on the way back where I spend 12 hours on the road but the rest was spent taking it easy and enjoying the jaunt. Of course driving the A is so much easier than driving our feature ute as we have the bathroom for my female jaunt companions. Wife two daughters 6 and 4 and two female pups. At least I still had football to keep the testosterone levels up along the way.
