Many of us keep detailed travel records of the places we go, the prices and amount of fuel we use and the maintenance stuff we do to our coaches. I wanted to share something that I have done for the past year or so.
I got a map and attached it to a cork board. Whenever I park the bus overnight at a new location, I add a pin. (I skip the wally world stops).
I reminds me that I need to get my bus further away from my home base. I put special colored pins for our mecca in Miami and for my home base in Auburn, Alabama.
Thought you guys would like to see. Also, if you have other ideas please feel free to share!
Cheers,

I agree this looks great. It would be great to see an index on this site by state that all the users could rate places to stay. To many places claim they are big rig friendly but we all have stories of what was reality. Big rig best bets is just to limited,great resource however. Perhaps the administrators could reply.

Hey Doug there is a gorgeous blue coach I think it's a new one getting final touches.. I wonder if your blues are close to it.. If so it's gonna pop like you can't imagine!!
Big job after 12 years and 240,000 miles, but we did keep a map until it was almost covered of roads traveled and parks visited in almost every State except the Northeast which we try to avoid because of traffic and lack of good parks we can fit in. Always happy to chime in on any post about locations others are looking for if I can add something helpful.
