Hi all

Another new member from Wisconsin. I want to thank the members for giving good advice. I am not new to the rv community but am to the forum. We are snowbirds and last winter did a coast to coast rv trip from Wisconsin to California coast across the country to Hilton Head South Carolina. It was a bucket list trip we enjoyed but probably won't repeat. Too much work and driving not enough relaxing and playing.

Just here to say hi to all.

Welcome from another Wisconsinite.


I've been told a good dandruff shampoo works for that white stuff but I don't believe it.

Welcome from SoCal! I'm not too far from the Palm Springs area and it gets pretty full of snowbirds. We can always tell a snowbird when in Costco - they are the folks wearing shorts & t-shirts when the natives are wearing hooded, fur-lined parkas.

We spent 2 weeks at San Clemente state beach. The picture of the palm tree sunset was taken there. We have family in the area and it is so nice to visit them while sleeping in your own bed. And by the way we did visit Costco while we were there.

Welcome to the forum from Texas!
We had so much fun in Texas on our trip. Went thru the panhandle on the way west and along the southern border on our way east . Most enjoyable spot for us was San Antonio as we stayed there for 4 days to see the sites. The other stops in Texas were just a day or two no time to explore.

No,we are going to Mobile Alabama for 2 months this year. San Clemente was the longest stay we had. After that it was 18 rv parks in 47 days. Looking forward to doing 2 months in one place and take a week to get home.

Palm Springs is very nice we didn't stop there but it seemed less populated than Orange county. We like to visit the family there but take a deep breath when we find normal again.
