Camping in Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Glacier
davidsuzanne replied to davidsuzanne's topic in Campgrounds
Thanks for your suggestions on CG and visits.... -
Hi Friends, Any suggestions for must see Campgrounds at these 3 NP's? We are from Philadelphia and plan to spend about a week in each park starting in Mid May. Before heading to Washington, Oregon and N. Ca. We are currently booked at Colter Bay RV Park in Grand Teton but will certainly modify the reservations per suggestions. Best Dave

Roof Replacement on 33 foot 2007 Fleetwood Bounder
davidsuzanne replied to davidsuzanne's topic in Type A motorhomes
Guys thanks. It was the supervisor for people with names A-L. Not the actual techs doing the work. He is going to call with a more detailed estimate. I am going to go out next week and have a look at it myself. Thanks. I will keep you posted. -
Hi Everyone RV is in for yearly maintenance. I was told yesterday the wood on the roof near both AC units is rotting and they suggest replacing the entire roof and seals. Dont have an estimate yet but the aintaince supervisor suggests it probably going to be around 10K. Anyone have experience with this? Best Dave

davidsuzanne replied to davidsuzanne's question in Destinations/Attractions
Rayin, The Campedium website is fantastic. I booked one leg of the trip tonight and was able to find reasonably priced spots on all of the other legs. So simple to use this site. Appreciate your experties. Warm regards, Dave -

We have a 33 ft Fleetwood bounder and flat tow a manual Elantra. 52 feet total length with bikes on the back of the car Thanks for the links to the websites guys. I use RvLife and also this handy site for state and national campsites. We try to stay in mostly state parks on the east coast.

Hi everyone I am looking for suggestions for campgrounds in or around Zion, Bryce, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands and Arches. I am not having much success booking dates using Recreation.gov for campgrounds near the parks. (ex-Devils Garden in Arches and Wathman in Zion). Any suggestions for private campgrounds around each of the parks or how about BLM parks which cannot be reserved. We were hoping to visit the Grand Circle this spring (we are driving ~ 2000 miles to get to the area from Philly). Maybe we are too late for this spring. Excited to make this trip.. Dave

Hi We need to replace the tires on our Fleetwood Bounder. Tires are 245 / 70R 19.5. We have had Goodyear G647 RSS tires (G rated) since we purchased the coach and had new tires installed in 2017. I have been shopping around for new tires and the prices are in the $ 500 dollar range. Talked to a local truck tire guy and he will install new Armstrong (H rated) tires for $ 335. The price sounds fantastic but I have never heard of Armstrong brand tires. Any experiences with Armstrong tires?

Thanks everyone. Lovings the suggestions. We want to do as much as possible. Start West in early April and go until early June. Fellow Fleetwood Rig. We have a 2007 Bounder. She has been great. -

Thanks for the suggestions..... -
Hi "guys" We just finished a 32 night trip through Va and NC. We visited Douthat SP, Smith Mountain Lake SP and Shenandoah River SP in Va and New River SP, Medoc Mountain SP and Mama Gerties Hideaway Campground 10 miles from Ashville. Our next trip in September is Letchworth SP, Fish Creek Pond SP (our favorite) and North South State Park in NY We think we are ready to "tackle" the great National Parks out west starting next spring. We will be starting North of Philadelphia and will make a week or so stop in KC to see my pops before heading further west. Any suggestions of routes to take. Head north and then zig zag south or reverse etc We figured this will be a 60-75 day trip. Thanks Dave (happily retired chemist)

Suggestions for our first greater than a month adventure
davidsuzanne replied to davidsuzanne's topic in Campgrounds
Thanks for the suggestion about CaCl2 it would not be good for the RV's underbelly. I guess we should wait until late March. Will give me time to get a few projects done around our home. -
Hello everyone, We are about to enter a new phase of our RV lives. My wife is retired and I will retire in January. We will be camping in one of our favorite spots from late September to early October the DAKS. In February we want to start 6-8 week adventure starting in the Philadelphia area. Any suggestions on must see spots heading south and west starting in the middle of winter in the NE. All the best Dave and Suzanne
