Some places have hookup for cable and internet, if not too remote you'll get wifi. Anywhere I can get a cell signal I can get internet on my laptop. You're going to love being able to have your kids with you and being at home while on the road. You'll end up buying one so you can go on getaways whenever you want. Run down to Lake Mead on the weekends!!!

Your age is none of my business but dependent on age and/or disability you can get an Access Pass for all national parks that cuts your hookup fees in half. We have one. Check google! If the hookup is 30 a night we pay 15. Makes a huge difference and some of the campgrounds in the national parks are wonderful with full hookups, sewer and everything. If you have water/sewer/electric you can shower in it no problem. Bathe your babies in the sink!

nana911 you really crack me up!
Hubby came home with some info on Virgin - where you can buy Broadband2Go so I think we'll hook it up to my daughter's laptop.

As far as the TV he said I'd have to actually read a book, listen to music or talk to him & the kids! lol! At least until we stopped for the evening.

Shareng744 we're on the same page. I just telling hubby that I'd put their pads in the shower. But you have a potty patch that you like? Good idea about teethering. We always use their carseats in the car but we weren't sure about when they get down what we'd use. I'll probably be in the back with them most of the time - otherwise I'll fall asleep sitting in the passenger seat. Hey, I'm over 55 so do I quality for the cut rates? I'll try to remember to check them out. Maybe AARP has a list of them.

Thanks for everyone's tips - every one of them help!
