How many camping days this summer?

We bought our new Jay Feather 28u on the 27th of May of this year. So far we have spent 42 days camping in it since then. We have another 3 days planned in Sept. So it will be 45 days for this year. How did you guys do? By the way we love our new trailer and glad we chose to buy the trailer we did.

Have spent every weekend since mid April at the RV. Its parked on a permanent site so it makes it real simple, no packing it, no hook up to TV, no backing it up into a space, no connecting elect., water, sewer, beer is always cold (very important). I just love it!!!!!

We're on a seasonal site. I'm retired and so far I've been at the camper 78 days this season (I'm here right now). Campground closes Oct 15 so I'll be adding a few more days to that total. DW gets 5 weeks paid vacation a year that she spends up here.

Hi all,
We're on day 55 since Memorial Day and we're not heading home for some time. DW is asking for a 5th wheel with multiple pop-outs

Between competition with Mother Nature, working every-other-saturday, and previous weekend commitments, we've only logged 4 days . But, prime camping weather is coming...and we've got some vacation/camping time planned ahead of us...we're trying..really really hard to get out there!

I think we will be logging a mere 28 days this year. Next year I will be leveraging some vacation carryover plus I'll get my 4th week of vacation for reaching my 10 year milestone. We plan on burning most of that time camping!!

Because of the cold wet spring we only have about 50 days on our river lot. We will be heading out around the middle of Sept and won't be back until some time in May. Saddly, we spent more days in our house than in the trailer.

We only got in 35 days since Memorial day this time. Usually we travel/camp with it 5-6 months out of a full year

I usually get about 20-25 days a year....but Healthi makes me stay here and watch the shop while she is out playing....would like it to be more but with the kids in school and no reservations here, it really limits us sometimes....

16 so far and 6 more scheduled, including this weekend. We're hoping the huricane will go more out to sea. If not, we'll just pack up Saturday night rather than Sunday morning. We also hope to schedule at least 4 more for a total of 26.
