Hello, I am a new member from Springfield, IL. Both my wife and I are retired. She from the State of IL and me 30 yrs service in the Army. I have had a few JAYCOS in the past. My local dealer handles Flagstaff, which was my last two, but recently we bought a 2017 Jayco Alante 32N. Love it. has a lot of storage and we've enjoyed it so far. It is still winterized, because last week, we still had temps in the 20-30 degree weather. I have gone out to where I store it and still start it and run the generator. Can't wait til it warms up here. I will post a picture soon. One of our favorite spots is Jim Edgar State Park, near Ashland, IL, about 40 mi West of Springfield. Beautiful camp grounds, nice lake, cabins, and handicapped spots.

Welcome to the forum. Really like the floor plan of your motor home.Hope you have many years of enjoyment. We had snow yesterday in MA and it's been pretty cold so we are anxious to start our season- April 15- I hope the snow is melted by then but if not we have camped in the snow before. Thank you for your service and enjoy retirement.

Welcome from South Carolina and thank you for your service. I'm originally from Northwest Indiana and know what you mean about waiting for the weather to break. Enjoy the forum.

Welcome and thank you for your service. I spent 10 years as an 11B. As a service connected disabled vet it is nice seeing places that have accessible sites. While I don't require any special accommodations there are plenty of people out there that do.

Welcome, and thanks for your service. We are from Plainfield, IL and have Jim Edgar State Park on our bucket list. I like to camp where I can fish in Illinois. I always keep an eye out for Precepts and Alantes, so maybe we'll run into each other some day. Safe travels.
Bob
