Welcome Everyone In the Baby Boomer Generation

There are 8 million of our generation called Baby Boomers in Canada and 80 million in the USA. We are the largest generation of children born and have influenced economics, education, government and the workplace since the late Forties. In fact, we saved the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Company because we bought so many of them. We will continue to influence as we age and with the first of our generation hitting 65 this year we need to know what lies ahead. Through this site I hope to share some ideas and information that can answer those questions. I welcome your comments and suggestions but will remove anything that is detrimental to my readership as a whole. Lets have fun with this site and get informed together.
Thanks,
Dave

 Time to Travel!

The best time to travel is when it's warm and sunny, right? But if you're a baby boomer, that can mean a ton of extra costs: hotels, airfare, and car rentals all add up quickly.

But have no fear—we've got some great tips for low-cost travel, so you can hit the road without breaking the bank.


First things first: if you're in a motorhome or camper van, check out free camping opportunities in your area. Many cities offer free camping at designated areas within the city limits, which means you can spend less on gas and more on fun!



Without further ado, let's dive into the best free campgrounds on the American highway system!
  1. Craggy Wash – Lake Havasu, Arizona. ...
  2. The Main Drag 525 – Sedona, Arizona. ...
  3. U.S. Naval Observatory – Flagstaff, Arizona. ...
  4. American Girl Mine Road – Winterhaven, California. 
  5. Sacred White Shell Mountain – Great Sand Dunes, Colorado.

Finally, be sure to take advantage of senior discounts wherever possible! Airlines offer discounts for seniors over 65 years old; many hotel chains also offer discounts for these travelers as well as some discounts on certain days of the week (such as Sunday).
