This is a very, very early post. We have just recently become campers (bought our Rockwood Mini Lite TT earlier this summer with huge thanks to the disboards on towing advice). We're going to be replacing our TV next year with something a bit bigger. So by the time we go we'll have 2 years of camping under our belts and good experience with what we're towing.
We have kind of a half wild idea of driving down to FW and making a huge road trip out of it. Our kids (age 6 and 3 current, would be 8/5 or 9/6 at time of travel) are pretty good car travelers (they can do up to 5 hrs at a stretch now so imagine they could handle a bit longer as they get older).
The only downside... we're in Nova Scotia. Google maps tells me that we're 30 hours door to door (which of course means more like 40hours+ when towing and border crossing).
Can anyone from the East Coast comment on how do-able this is? With kids in tow we'd likely use campsites over Wal-mart parking lots to let them run around a bit. And we'd probably stop a bit to see the sights along the way. So... 2.5 weeks maybe? We'd like to have at minimum 4 park days and an off day at FW.
