Enjoy your weekend and anniversary. Some of our most enjoyable weekends were within 20 miles of home! As long as you can look out your door and not see you house, you can pretend you are anywhere in the world!

Exactly - our favorite weekend spot is 1 hour from home, on a lake, we can be set up and drinking a beer to watch the sunset and then make it home on Sunday in time to watch the race...perfect! :lol:

I been staying away from the RV sites for winter and now that I started posting and reading again, The RV bug is getting me. I cant wait to dig it out of storage even if i only sit in it in the driveway.
I was lucky again this winter I had a place to store it indoors for free that indoor storage really helps keep them nice.
