        Valerie78 3 hours ago I am a member of Boondockers many others. This is an issue of lack of available options...small place sadly. Our reservation had to be cancelled by them based on safety. Most places are closed here until March.

      LarandSus February 15 Sorry, I'm confused. Are you saying you plan to go down the Atlantic coast, cross country, then up the Pacific coast?

        Micki and Jeff February 15 Exactly!  But I’ll take any “water” routes recommended.  So much to see in our beautiful country.
    • Micki and Jeff
      RebelBama February 15 You can take I-95 on east coast all the way to Miami from PA. Should have boondocks around coastal. I’m not sure. Check with Simply RVing (YouTube) mainly about Florida coastal. Hopefully you get all interest.

    February 12I have a question. Is there anyone in this group that is going to be at Rally 2.0. I need some boondocking wisdom! Can you direct message me?

      Bruce & Linda (Omnibus) February 12 We will be there, but we will not be boondocking nor are we the right people to offer advice on this subject.  That said, it would help to know a bit more about the wisdom you seek.  :-)

      greatpuck February 12 I'll be there Thursday night or early Friday morning and plan on boondocking. What kind of wisdom are you seeking. I just boondocked at the FMCA SEA Rally last week and boondock a fair amount. I have a class B, however, so boondocking is pretty easy as lo...  more
