Full time ALL THE TIME. We've plopped down at my wife's sister's place for the summer MOOCHDOCKING, but have no issues and plan on leaving in Sept and heading to Arizona to boondock around the state all winter...

Being self contained has worked well for my trip across the country during Covid

Spent the week in Warsaw, Indiana, ostensibly to have our Xantrex 3000W inverter/charger rebuilt (shout out to Advanced Solar in Leesburg), but we're also enjoying the delightful weather.

We left our winter camping place in middle Florida for our home base in southern Illinois on March 17th. It took about 3 days to get there and was our normal planned schedule. We spent the Memorial Day Weekend and the 10 days around it in the Metamora, Michigan area. Back to the home base, with a quick stop in the Bloomington/Normal, Illinois to see our Kids and Grandkids. The end of June saw a week long family vacation in the Smokie Mountains and then on the first of July, we headed for upstate New York in the Finger Lakes Area. We did leave the Finger Lakes Area for an enjoyable couple of days on Association Island at the east end of Lake Ontario. And one other 2 day trip to middle Pennsylvania. Yesterday, we traveled from the Finger Lakes upstate New York area to the Brandywine region of Pennsylvania around Philadelphia. We will be here until next Monday and then head back to the home base for a couple of weeks. The biggest impact of the virus has been eating out. By normal standards, traveling and camping is an isolated social distancing life. We wear a mask, when appropriate. We use hand sanitizer wipes every time we touch a fuel pump or come out of a store. Keeping 6 feet from other people is not difficult. Life is good! Life feels safe away from the large cities and ghettos, but it always has. We want to be out in nature amongst friends. Crowds have never been our big things. During our retirement our desire has been to LIVE, not just SURVIVE. We feel very blessed for the life we have. We never take it for granted. If it changes or ends tomorrow, its been a great ride. ;-)

Anecdotal reply

I live in the Hudson Valley and I can tell you from observation that very few are moving around here. We recently stayed at a local KOA and it was only about 1/4 full. Looking at roadways and the interstate from overpasses I only see the rare RV on the road.

Got a used RV (New to us) and have been on the road the last few months because my office is closed. Working Monday through Friday from the motorhome. Move each Saturday and stay one week. Having fun and trying to make the best of the situation.

Full time since 2016

We are full timing and have been on the road since 2016. We should be at it for several more years. Currently we are sheltering in place in Casa Grande, AZ. We arrived for a three month winter stay in November now it's August. We will probably be here through next winter. It seems easier to stay here than to go back on the road and tend with current campground Covid restrictions, plus this is a very nice park. Daily temperatures usually reach 115 degrees or higher and overnight close to 100 degrees. They say it is a dry heat but that doesn't negate that hot is hot. No rain since the first week of March.

We were locked down in April at a Thousand Trails in Texas but in May they opened the parks back up and we have been on the road since May 1st. No real issues finding campgrounds in TX, AR, TN, SC, GA, MS.
