First things first, Connorsmom....a big welcome to the forum. You've got my admiration for your career and your tenacity to travel alone. We like to use Microsoft Streets and Trips as well as one of the big campground books (Trailer Life, Woodalls, etc) to plan our trips. It makes us feel more secure about our traveling if we have a destination in mind. Safe travels!
