wild birds, deer moss in the swamp, and more! Plus information on Thousand

Below: Karen Duquette in the hot tub, enjoying
peace and relaxation in the evening. This is the life of an RV Gypsy!
What a great beginning to a new life! And she was all by herself, which
made it so much nicer.

Below: Karen Duquette in the pool (off season) - peace,
quiet, relaxing. And she had the entire pool and hot tub to herself
with no one else around at 9 p.m.

Below; Thousand Trails Campground
in Clermont, Florida is a membership park. When the two RV Gypsies first
joined the park in 2008 (the above photos), they got
to drive through the park and pick their own site, which is one of the
many benefits.
In 2014 the two RV Gypsies found out
that RVers no longer picked their own site at this campground and the
campground had a lot of full-timers staying there. As time went by, the
two RV Gypsies learned that there were not enough Thousand Trails campgrounds
throughout the USA to make the membership fees worth it. But they did
enjoy it for a few years. |
