We haven't really changed much because of the price of fuel, our lives have dictated our changes. We were planning on a trip to Montana this late summer and then head down to Arizona for the winter months. But since we spent last winter in Florida and I started working for Disney and loved every minute of it we changed our plans and are heading back to Florida for this coming winter. Instead of 2012 miles to from Ohio to Montana it is only 1033 miles from here back to Haines City, Fla. So, see, we have already saved half of the cost and are still doing what we want to do! We are heading out for Michigan this weekend and are planning on staying there for a week and a half or so. Even with the increased cost of fuel it is still cheaper than staying in a motel/hotel for ten days, not to mention sleeping in my own bed every night (priceless)!! The truck gets 14.4 mpg towing and 22.3 empty. This is so much better than the old truck that got 7 mpg. that we are still happy. We have been doing all the "stick house" chores for the past few weeks and the only other trip we have planned for this year is the MOC Rally in Goshen. See you all there!
