We heard the same sort of things from the folks at the Full-timing seminar.It was always our plan to spend long periods of time at one place..Example sunbirding in Fla for 3 or 4 months. We will pick a place we want to be and spend a min of a month there then move on or return home for a while.What we picked up on this trip was that the higher cost of fuel and the ripple effect it causes in Campground rates for example are becoming a issue for folks that spend a lot of time on the road..full-timers and long-timers alike.Example a friend of ours who just got rid of his 38 foot gas motor moterhome (4 MPG) for a 1 ton Dodge Diesel and a 3670 Montana. This "trip" was also a fact finding experiment.. we checked monthly rates everywhere we went. For those of us who have not yet started to full-time or long-time the present state of the economy requires us to re-evaluate. What we planed on 2 or 3 years ago no longer applies and who knows what the next 2 or 3 years will bring. We will still do what we planed to do one way or the other..I remember this quote.." If you want something bad enough, you will find a way to make it happen" so be it....
