There are RV parks and campgrounds alllll over the USA looking for volunteer workers in their office or mowing grass just for the cost of the site - ie, free site to the worker bees and you put in a few hrs a week for the site - we tried that one summer in Idaho, but found their schedule a bit more work than other places - 5 days on call, with 2 off to do your own thing. 2 days wasn't enough for us to do laundry, shopping, doing the tourist thing in the area, etc. so we never did that again, but we certainly have met a lot of fun folks who love RVing that way! say 3 mths here, 3 mths there, then move south for the winter and 3 mth here, etc. you get to pick and choose where in the country you want to check out next. We've met some who took their kids along with them too and home schooled them with very active history lessons being learned along the way too! haha tis fun!

meant to say workers get a free site and the owner of the RV park gets free help (not a site)...

The park service here does that. 20 hours a week gets you a free site for as long as the term of the agreement to volunteer is.

Now here the volunteers are not on call unless that is part of the agreement (it usually is not)
Also most park managers here let the volunteers make a 20 hour a week schedule that suit them. Of course that depnds on the park and what that specific park needs or that vlunteers specific skill set.

I would love to live that way, 3 years til my kid is on their own, might try it then.

I suggest to start researching it now... Then about a year before you plan to get on the road start putting in your applications to volunteer to the parks that your interested in staying at.

Basically put in any special skills you have llike construction, mechanics, money handling..
It really just depennds on what that specific park is looking for so fill your application for each park with that in mind.
It is also not a bad idea to call the park and speakk to the perrson in charge of volunteers. In Florida that is usually handled by either an assistant manager or if the park has one, the park service specialist.

Please feel free to pm me. If there i any help I can offer I would be happy to

Hi Amraann - I retired from San Diego, CA in 2000, waited until hubby was done working (after tax season 2001) and hit the road. We sold our home of 35 yrs, bought a 5th wheel, and waited til we got to Nebraska to buy a diesel truck to pull it with (love our truck!) and have been across the USA many times in 15 yrs. Wash. to Maine on hwy 2, Maine to Fl seeing the east coast, wintered in Bushnell, Fl at a SKP park (did a lot of driving all over FL), then checked out the south east portion (Smokey Mtns), and wintered outside Mission TX, (back before all the border issues really escalated).
We've been up to Alaska to spend the summer in '06 (and visit a childhood friend from Seattle area now married w/kids and grandkids), and spent time in Canada visiting RV friends we met in TX, then dealt with medical issue for a couple years taking short trips here an there, and last year another long big trip, AZ to TX, over to Ky, up thru Ohio to Indiana, Illinois, Wisc., Michigan, So.Dak. and back to AZ down the west side of Colorado... we had visited a son in TX, dying friend in KY, fixed RV in Ohio, met up with relatives in Wisc, had fun in Mich looking for Lake Superior Agates on the beach (grin) and went home a new way. So in 15 yrs of retirement, we've hit all 49 states on this continent, most of the Canadian Provinces, and before retirement spent a lot of time down on the Baja Penn. south of Calif. We can now say "We've been everywhere!" haha not, but almost! (at least a lot of the back roads!) about 260,000 miles on our diesel truck now, and using a 2nd 5th wheel (they don't make them to actually live in year round, so we bought another when we'd reallllly used the first shorter one to it's max.)
Where are you in FL? I loved the beach in Naples with all the shells of every color and size!! so dif. from So. Calif. beaches!
We winter in Arizona cuz we love the high desert NW of Phoenix, so we bought an RV size lot to park on and love the fact there are 400+ other small & large 1/4 acre lots bought by others who also are retired and RVers and we have a ball telling our tales to each other, each time told they get better! HAHA Lots of activities tailored to us in our advanced ages, too. Just fun being around like minded folks I guess.

Your story sounds incredibly. I dream of that type of life often. My husband on the other hand has had to travel constantly for work all his life so RV same appeal. I am hoping that we can find some middle ground if we are fortunate enough to do these things. I could deal with just a couple of months of travel thruout the year and the rest of it being near family. Thanks for sharing and continue to enjoy!!

Sigh... at this point, despite being on that last list of winners... I don't see any sign that I've won anything at all. So I guess it's just as well that I had forgotten the contest entirely, but getting my hopes up like that wasn't very nice.

Andria

Have any of us on that last list heard anything? I don't think so. I haven't. Never give up hope for fun things Andria. We will hear soon I imagine, unless you have information that I do not. Now turn that frown upside down. Hahahaha feeling kiddish this morning.
