[VAC] Cheyanne - Camp Hosting

[Jill Hari <jillywonkenobe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Cheyanne, I had not realized that (camp hosting)
was an option and I LOVE the idea! Do you set
this up prior to arrival or what? How do you
arrange it?

I bought Woodall's Campground Directory and see
that any RV parks within 45 miles of a big city
charge outragious rates. To stay within commute
distance to San Francisco (one of the highest
paying regions) will cost $35 to $45 per night -
that's about $1,000 per month which is still way
cheaper than rent in that city but MAN! I'm
hoping most of these places will offer monthly
rates. 

Someone's idea of looking for a small lot in a
mobile home park sort of interests me, though I
have a notion that the quality of neighbors may
not be as good in the type of mobile home park
that would take a travel trailer as in RV parks.
That comment doesn't sound very fair, but it's my
experience and I'm thinking of safety as well.

I'm an artist - most of my earnings come from
print work... graphic design for logos, corporate
i.d., collateral, brochures, posters, etc. I've
just added Web site design to the mix. My office
& equipment is compact and moveable but I don't
expect to keep a financially sustainable
clientele while on the road, so I plan to have
long stayovers near major cities and work as an
administrative and graphic design temp employee.
I'm currently in the process of re-establishing
my skills metalsmithing and beading as a business
- my goal is to set up a compact corner workshop
(probably one which can sort of fold out or pop
out from under the couch) in my Airstream and
create a line of designer and custom jewelry to
sell to shops and at fairs around the country.

Yes, I'm a bit eccentric with an untraditional
way of thinking. And maybe a little nuts to some
of you but this is my dream.
