This past Saturday and Sunday, we saw a tremendous
number of motorhomes, including fivers, heading southbound on I-95. Was there a rally in the south, or just the snowbirds heading down?

Me too, except on 81S in VA. I think a lot of SBs wait till after Christmas to leave. My DW always commands me to visit with relatives over Christmas.

We were heading north from Key West. It felt like we didn't get the memo.

Wait until some time in March. Last year we watched them all streaming north on I-95 past Jacksonville. Modern day version of the Exodus.

On the trip back to KY after visiting Disney, we saw a never ending "convoy" of snow birds on I-75 and on I-65. I assume many wait until after Christmas (grandkids) to start the trek south.
Happy trails, Bronk
