Average number of camping adventures per year?

Just wondering how often our Fellow Forum Members are fortunate enough to use their expensive toy "The RV"? Those who are Full Timers are very blessed to do what the rest of us get to do only on assorted occasions during the year. In our part of the US, we are limited to a camping season of April thru Nov. We average 2 long trips (500 miles plus) and 4 to 6 trips under 200 miles per season, since my DW is still working.
Just wondering

Generally 2 (sometimes 3) weekends a month... Varies... About the only time we don't go out is Jan/Feb.

We’ve been lucky with our schedules and have been going out close to twice a month for the past six months. Most of them have been an average of three nights. From now on, it’ll probably be once a month aiming for long weekends.

Been retired about a year so we are trying one long weekend and one week long a month. Like to try some longer ones next year. Life is so good once we pull out of the driveway.

Not retired yet, so we are limited to a long weekend to Canada (that's where Kate is from), a couple long weekends to Hatteras one in spring, one in fall, and a couple or three week treck to Florida in February. We don't travel much in the summer because it is pretty darn nice right here.

One of the nice things about an RV is that they are adaptable to so many different life styles.

Once we are retired, we plan to follow the sun from Christmas to Easter or so ....

Forgot to add to my post above, we're not retired. Will probably die at my desk at work.
