Just a warning about something that caught me unaware when I first started out. I am from Michigan, and no one in Michigan goes camping on the "smaller" three-day weekends that occur in snowy weather, so I completely forgot about the 3 and 4-day weekends: President's day, Martin Luther King's Birthday, Veterans' Day, etc. I did not make reservations for whichever one fell in November, so I could find absolutely nothing anywhere near Joshua Tree National Park. I ended up driving to Las Vegas!!
Nevada state parks are all first-come, first-served, but that means you need a place to stay the night before so you can show up at 9 am at a state park to find a place!!
And right now, I am desperate for a spot in Illinois south of Chicago or in Northern Indiana on June 26. Got an appointment on the 28th at the Fleetwood factory service in Decatur. I can spend the night of the 27th in their parking lot, but it is too far for me to drive the night before. And I forgot the 26th was a Saturday!!!
