Trees have dropped their leaves and winter is setting in across the country. To RVers it is the migratory signal to start packing and begin heading to warmer climates. Where do snowbirds migrate?

Have You Ever Camped on the Holidays?

Friday November 20, 2009
The holidays are a great time to get together with family and friends. I hope you all are enjoying this festive time of year. The weather in December can be quite harsh in many parts of the country, but in some areas this can be the very best time of year to be outdoors. Ask any snowbird. They know the advantages of heading south for the winter.

I know there are a lot of die-hard campers and RVers out there, but have any of you ever camped on the holidays? If you have, leave a comment and share your holiday camping experiences.
