Not only that, but RV's have generally nicer furniture, a refrigerator, oven and cooktop, all your own stuff, grill, outdoor furniture, better food than most places (at least when we cook!), etc.

Whether an RV is nicer than a hotel room/suite sort of depends upon the
hotel room/suite, eh? One of our favorite places at the beach is a two
level suite, with a full kitchen, two full bathrooms, two bedrooms, big
living room, balcony, dining room, plasma tv. About $250 a night in
season.

Obviously you've got me there! I've got only one bathroom and one bedroom. The living room is quite
big, with the slides out, and the dining area is quite sufficient for four people. And, the TV is an
LCD rather than a plasma. Damn, I'm losing out all over.

Oh, and there ain't no one else's bedbugs to contend with.

Do you and your lovely bride really need separate bathrooms and bedrooms?

WATOABH, huh?


Two bathrooms are nice. We don't have to push the sides of the room out.
One more time, John...you travel the way you want, and we'll travel the
way we want. We don't like to spend (waste) hundreds of hours on the
Interstates. I'll drive to Florida or Connecticut from here, but that's
about it.

You think it's a "waste" of time to explore, learn, see, and do things?
Figures.


I think it is a waste of time to get to distant places in a motor
vehicle, unless there are specific stops you want to make along the way.

We like driving the Pacific Coast Highway. Driving the Interstate
between the DC area and Florida is just something to get over with as
quickly as possible. We do like Hilton Head, the Golden Isles, Savannah
and Charleston, though.


Well of course you would think that there's nothing to see in between.
If you don't like the journey, why do you allegedly have a boat? I-95 IS
a wasteland, but did you know there are other routes?



If we are driving to Florida, I-95 is the fastest route. If there is
someplace we want to see along the way, we'll do that, too. But mostly
if I am driving to Florida, I want to get there as quickly as possible.
That's why we fly most of the time. We don't like long car trips.
Probably you do. You go your way, we'll go our way.

I'm not saying there is nothing to see "inland" in the Carolinas or
Georgia. I know there is. I'm not not a big fan of the south.
