traveling the USA by camper?

[Acts 2:38 girl]

Does anyone know where I can get info or a web site about traveling through the USA by camper?  Not just for vacation, but living in the camper while traveling?  Thanks - Andrea

Hi Andrea, here are the links I've collected along the way. Some day DH and I would like to go Full Time.

Here are a few, Andrea, that are more family and homeschool from the road orientated

I'm sure AB can chime in if you have specific questions.

I got the feeling Andrea was talking about living full-time from their camper, in sort of a Nomad way.  She specifically said "Not just for vacation..." which our long-trip was.  Yes, we lived out of it for a while, but neither of us had jobs at the time.

I have some close friends that are "Full Timers" along with her parents.  They both have huge motor homes with washer and dryer and all that extra stuff.  They, like us, belong to NACO/Thousand Trails so they stay at these resorts across the country and seem to like it.  You pay your yearly dues and there is no chage for your 2 week stay.  With NACO/TT we can stay in one resort for 2 weeks then have to be out for 1 day and can go to the next one for another 2 weeks.  Some of the resorts allow "extended stay" where you can stay longer than 2 weeks and you only pay around $350+ for a month, plus you pay for electric and phone service (and honey wagon) if you want.  They also look for "seasonal" jobs.  They worked, for about 3 months, back east somewhere last year at a Pumpkin Farm and had lots of fun.  It helps pay for the extra things.  Sometimes they even work for NACO/TT and only work about 30 hours a week and get paid minimum wage.  There could be lots of options out there for you, you just have to look for them.
