For us, the reason we travel is not to "get away" (we live so far in the woods that "camping" is what we do every day at home)... So, for us, traveling is a means to see things we otherwise would not see. We make no reservations during travel days and some days we might drive 300 miles, other days, we might drive 30 miles. Many times we have started the travel day at 8:30 or 9 AM and within a few miles, see something that we didn't know existed but is a site we'd like to see, so we would pull off the highway, spend a few minutes or maybe a few hours "as tourists" and then get back on the road, "several hundred miles behind schedule for the day".... Or, as we look at it, "It's 2PM, time to find a campground for the night (regardless of miles traveled)... We have, on more than a few occasions, left a campground and wound up back there for the next night because we "just didn't feel like driving that day".....

Reservations??? Only if we're staying for more than a week. Otherwise, finding a campground site is "part of the adventure".....
