I can't wait til you're in New England - I say upstate NY, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine...but that's just me thinking of states I like.

New Hampshire's White Mountains! The Kankamangus Highway is one of the most beautiful drives in the country (although not in your RV!).<br /><br />Also, camping or even just visiting Maine's Acadia National Forest - although I know you didn't mention Maine in your travel plans - Isle au Haut is, again, one of my favorite places in the world. Only accessible by boat, most of the island is a National Park, the ocean is wild and wonderful, the air is perfumed with pine trees, there are wild, sweet crabapple trees and wild blueberries growing along the hiking trails... what's not to love?Danielle Ste.

It is another Hillsboro County Park and is first come first serve, so if one arrives during the week there are many spaces available the ranger says. Large spaces, not a huge amount of privacy and cost is $18/cash only including water and elec, many over the air tv channels from Tampa & St Pete. If you haven't checked it out, it might be a good choice when David has appts at Moffit.
