We want to plan a two or three RV trips that are 1 week or less this year. We prefer to travel during school times since we home school and can avoid crowds...so thinking May and September for any major travel with short weekend trips in the summer.
Any recommendations? We live in Northern IL and already spend a lot of time in Northern WI and an occasional trip the the Dells. We especially enjoy places with museums, theme parks, stuff to learn and entertain us and the kids (five kids ages 2 to 10 who are well behaved and well traveled.)
Last year we went to Springfield IL, Memphis TN, and Branson MO (in one trip a little over a week long.) I think we'd enjoy going to St. Louis since we skipped that on the last trip. A few years ago we circled Lake Erie which took 2 weeks and went to MI to the Ford Factory and Greenfield Village, drove through Canada and stayed at Niagara Falls, Hershey PA, Lancaster County PA, went to Idyllwild and Cedar Point theme parks. That was an awesome trip! Perhaps we will take a short trip to King's Island this year?
We also went to the RV Hal of Fame and on to Shipshewana and the Jellystoone Park in Fremont IN. We do like Jellystone Parks especially the one in Warrens WI.
We definitely want to go to Yellowstone some day, but don't have the time or budget for that this year. We need places that we can do in a week or less on a smaller budget.
