For ten years Marsha, Paul, and Simba cruised the snowbird circuit from San Diego to Key West, in three different motorhomes, towing a Saturn, with numerous campground memberships-two years as full-timers, when their family considered them "homeless." In addition to the U.S. snowbird hotspots, they RVed in Mexico, Alaska, and New Zealand, and lived in Canada's winter tropics-Parksville, B.C. This book is a compilation of twelve years experiencing, observing, reading, and Googling. It discusses the ideal snowbird RV, preparations, destinations, routes, parks, clubs, campground memberships, lifestyles, and challenges. It is the quintessential budget guide for the Great Escape to Where the Sun Spends the Winter.
