True Investigative Book
I found this book extremely informative but touching as well. I read it in one night. After finishing I wanted to know what happened to the people Jessica befriended. I read the book sitting under the canopy of my aging Class C surrounded by $200,000 plus RVs. Our "camp" spot $60/night. I have visited many of the blogs and web pages mentioned in the book. We have traveled full time as part of my job for 12 years. We have hiked so many trails and visited a huge percentage of state and national parks. It was our intention when we actually retire in a few years to volunteer as camp hosts as a way of giving back and extending our retirement dollars. I have followed workampers blogs and they do all seem quite upbeat and thought this would be a fun thing to do also. Thank you Jessica for all your research and for opening my eyes. We seem like the poor house on the block but never realized their was such a disparity among nomads. I assume they are just now allowed in to the places we stay, rigs must be 10 years or younger, you must prove you have 100,000 insurance, you have to have a background check if staying in any one place for longer than a month. I have a sneaky suspicion that many of these bigger blogs & websites with the exception of RVtravel.com are supported by the RV industry which is questionable at best. Please keeping digging because the next expose needs to be on the RV industry and their shoddy workmanship and data mining techniques.
