While waiting, we have been updating a new 2011 Atlas with our destinations. I looked over the Cheap RV Living website again and read the section regarding BLM (Bureau of Land Management) camping spots where you can camp for free up to 14 days, and after 14 days you simply must move to another spot at least 25 miles away from your previous location. These spots are also located in many National Forests, and as I look over my Atlas I see little markings denoting camping. However one of my worries is that these little spots are only stamped near the camping areas you must pay for. Does anyone have any advice on BLM spots? I just want to avoid any sort of trouble I may run in to...
EDIT: I actually found a map of the BLM spots on the departments website! Click here if you would like to view the large map of BLM areas I found. :)
In the meantime, we have had a good time staying with our family members before our trip. It has been a lot of R&R but I do miss sleeping in the Bus! We removed, what we call, the "head smasher"~ the storage cabinet that hangs over the lower~ Rock And Roll bed. I don't have trouble anymore with it but visitors in the Bus have troubles smashing their heads on the dang thing. So we decided we don't really need it anyways.
One evening in Marion NC there was a halo around the moon! I took a picture with the Bus in the lower corner... you can barely see the halo, but I think its blog worthy. :)
We have also been featured in the Reader's Ride online article with VW Camper Van Blog! Steve did a wonderful job with the article taking most of the information from my blog. Check it out: Reader's Ride #22.
It looks like in a week from now we should be heading to Atlanta from Aiken SC where we are going to visit family and friends once the Bus is all fixed up. :) Just have to wait a little longer...
