Find out if RV life is for you by watching our tips of things to think about: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hryDnbGlldq1YHk.html

We had our onboard generator go down on us and we were told it would cost $2000 just to remove it and look @ it. We ended up getting one from Lowes and with the COVID-19 we all have had some very unexpected costs. (My hubby used to work on Agri buggies and equipment so he had already gone through the simple things.)

I am a 40 year old full timer that's retired, and solo. I am having the time of my life!

See? That's a good thing! I grew up moving every couple years so I enjoy having a change of scenery.

Minimalism at its finest. If you don’t mind me asking, what are the things you end up packing?

Well, we have a lot of kitchen stuff: iron skillets, a massive blender, coffee grinder and a a bunch of tools- and that's just Paul! I have professional cameras, tripods, a drone, a lounger, a mixer, baking pans, we definitely do NOT travel light! But at least now have a rig plenty big to accommodate.

You’d save a shit ton by buying a van and living out of that! Rent is the killer

Good idea, will check them out. Thanks!

I had one worked great, I kept it outside near the water hook up. But if you have space, I have and suggest you think about getting a washer and dryer set . It makes a difference, you can wash 2 towels and 2 sets of clothes ( not jeans) . It can be 15 min quick wash, 30 for a load as above and 2 sheets pillow cases and 1 towel, I like to be very specific on how and what I wash, but the key is you can do washing and drying at the same time. Get your life back, and no nasty dryer lint or moldy washers, and the cost. You can adjust the spin cycle accordingly to your load. You won’t be sorry

I bought as pandemic was setting in. Works great on kitchen counter, and is quite durable. I skipped the spin drying function on washer in favor of stand-alone spin dryer, very sturdy type, and line dry afterwards. Once every 3 months or so I bring big things like sheets and blankets and kitchen towels that might be greasy to a very clean and modern laundromat with wifi. Amazon has great reviews on some of these items which are quite detailed with advice/how-to-use, I had my doubts but it is a great system. I use this in small residence now but am eyeing the RV life as well after the pandemic, and expect to continue to use these.

Wonder wash! Takes some elbow grease tho!

I recommend a sky hook

You are so welcome! And you never know, this life may work for you now. Everyone needs to find their own answer. We did a video asking if fulltime RV life is right for you, it may help clarify things. Check it out: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hryDnbGlldq1YHk.html

From UK 23.9.20.RV Living.Not Spell Ckd.Ok. Good and not good.Theres lots could be said. But not enough background re prev life. For instance the Hot Rod involvement I would have thought be worth explaining about.IE how it started and why. I only saw brief glance at a w-shop and a house. The trouble is, brief glances whet appetite but was disapointed. You could claim the film is about the RV situation but I still think a lot more should be explained. Alsoi more about his partner etrc would be good. Am pleased that they are aware of the difficulties posed by that RV way of life. This may not be popular but I feel I have the right to state that I would not have taken that step for several reasons other than those stated. Maintaining a complex vehicle without a workshop is a nitemare. Also the vehicle will almost certainly depreciate whereas a building often appreciates. Its all very well when young but spose one partner gets ill. I dont even want to think about that kind of outcome.It seems to me that people in US still have the desire for pioneer ways of life. Apparantly H Ford thought that way too. The US is very different from UK and I wonder how many in that country realise it., I worked 7 days a week sometimes 24 hours a day but RV is a small van and a 10ftx15 ft ridge tent. It astonishes me to see huge RVs by the 1000 going this way and that. The people must be very rich.I started life in a 10ft x 12 ft room and was ill. The RV depicted is as long as our house. Am also pretty tired at looking at landscapes and cityscapes. If I was forced to do a RV life I would find a site which had Water and Electric and a sewage arrangement.then put the vehicle on a hard standing Take the weight and then store wheels under cover. I would make sure the site is near to some built up area. Yes you then need a cheap car., Was thinking of putting a tarp over the unit in winter. But theres the windows to consider. The other plan I might have is to get large or ample barn and stick the RV inside. This I reckon is best, I dont know the laws in US so am dreaming. I did not see whether the couple have a second vehicle. Most of this is conjecture. Nice to see holding hands. I need more info.Why am I cautious? Its because I had a life of failure stress,disappointment which kept step with massive efforts. Have noticed on other RV shows no one seems to have or read a newspaper. Also no one even mentions what is going on in the area or country.They just chat about their own ambition and lives.Have not seen anyone yet at their wits end., No one mentioned the press reports of Trump being pursued by 26 women on sex grounds. Nor does anyone notice that his father made manoy from properyty speculation and prostitution.Also it seems people are not aware of the writing analysis we did and found a tendancy similar to that of the 3rd Reich upper levels. We indicate aggression. The level of crrptn in UK is at epidemic levels and we ourselves are experiencing police attacks because of the evidence that the BBC advised to hide it abroad. We found that all HM prefix orgs were implicated as is the HM Courts. We experienced death threats from the US security firms here. Thats the firms that beat,shot workers in 19th C US. Seems to me that the public cant be trusted when voting. Why dont we expose it? The entire media and press has told us they wont print any of it. Social media like face book,destroys the accounts and mails. We have no access to health system or welfare. No reply from 2 HM MPs. No reply from 25 Universities. The people in this road social distance is 50 meters upwards. I laid here in terrible pain for 7 yrs screaming in agony. No help.

Yep. And you're welcome. We do love the RV life and hope you join us out here someday. We just talked to campground neighbors who rented out their house for two years and expect to fulltime just for that length before going back to a house. So there are unlimited ways to do this life.

Awww, isn't that sweet? We are grateful to have found each other. Here's our story of how we met on the road: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNyHd7h4mODLlHU.html

Oh my gosh, I LOVE Northern Cali so much! I stayed at a campground in Trinidad -wow! Can't wait to explore the north half of the state more. Sounds like you are in a great campground. The one I mentioned is not for long term, but it certainly is a beauty. Here's my video about it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r62HY92Ir9a4qHk.html

What's the rent like? I know it varies. Just curious. I'm considering it. Currently living in Texas.

Where in Nocal? I'm just retired and I live in Sac. I'm getting an RV. I'm retired Air Force and I'm gonna stay at Military bases. Travis, Moffet, San Diego, Coronado...

I live in Grass Valley California about 45 minutes from Sacramento. We have many places to park an rv. I'm looking to get one right now too. They are all around this beautiful area.

Awww, thank you so much. We just had a relationship reset and we talk about it in our latest video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sMmdqLBjsrS3mI0.html

That's awesome! It sounds like you have a nice setup and are enjoying your first year of RV life. That's so true, living in a house you always have something that needs repairs or maintenance. And cleaning! Yep, cleaning an RV is a breeze! Thanks for your comment and enjoy that lake view- nice!

Hi there! Sounds like your parents were adventurers! What great memories you must have from those trips! Yes, it does seem you are limiting your risk by starting out again and going for six months, while still hanging on to your house. For the first few trips, stay close to home so you can make any modifications needed, plus off-load what you end up not using. Happy travels!

Awww, thanks so much!We love RV life and look forward to meeting you at a campground someday!

Opposite end of a 30 foot rig. You can’t be serious. One sits outside and the the other has the rig to him/herself. Wow, mows there is a healthy plan. Buy a (house) close to a bar, 96 the “rig” and call it a day. So stupid!!!! Stay safe.

@@casketbier151 Buying a house next to a bar would be a decidedly unhealthy choice, since I'm sober now for 8 years. But thanks so much for your "constructive" criticism, because being called stupid is always so helpful, especially 9 months after the original comments were made. I was speaking about my own experience and what works for me, and was not making recommendations for everyone else. Maybe you were just having a bad day. If so, I hope things are better now.

@@slister45 No actually having a great weekend. Just living in a 30 foot tine box hauling it around and having no place to escape the Dream crusher ( is) so stupid!!!!!

@wckdkoolbtxh Its my calling thanks for noticing. 😉

Yes! I think the answer for a solo traveler is to get in with a group of other solos and travel together part of the time. Escapees does this...or did before the world changed. There are Facebook groups where you could find other solos to travel with. I was solo for a year and did pretty good.

I know a guy named Richard who said he got by with a little help from his friends.

Hi Nancy! So glad to hear. RV life is not for everyone. You certainly need to be handy. Many folks think it is an endless vacation. It is not. But for the right people, it's a dream. Hope you and your hubby find your exciting next chapter!! And absolutely keep watching; we have a lot of non RVers who are traveling with us virtually.

Oooh, that's awesome! Happy washing to you!

Hi Jane! When I was solo I had an emergency roadside repair and found the Facebook groups and forums so helpful. Posted my question and got an immediate answer. Here is what happened: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b66hoKmLsJbVoXU.html

Yes! They are so great!!! I love the feel of a fifth wheel. We are currently on my third (and Paul's second) one. Happy planning to you!

You got it!

You didn't address sickness or injuries, whether major or minor. Flu bug to Pneumonia to breaking a leg - don't have your regular family doctor on the road. We've seen several limbs broken just setting up or in care/maintenance. Not everyone has your newer unit.

Hi and welcome to our channel! We are finding the social gets easier the longer we do it. We are building a community because of our camping membership so we are starting to run into the same folks at different locations. Would love to hear any thoughts or tips you have about downsizing to RV life. I am collecting advice for a future video: Is it best to do it fast or slow? Set a deadline? What would make it easier for folks? So we camp for an average of less than $5 a night but it can be done for just a $1.64 average. Here is our video about that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mciKdpxoqb2qlWw.html And welcome to RV life - looking forward to meeting you on the road someday!

Wow, would TOTALLY love to share our process with you in greater detail. How would we go about sharing that information with you? Also, if you’d care to, you can see our video here on our 500lbs loss 😳 m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pL2EpLZkx53VnYU.html

I will watch that-- sounds great! Feel free to send an email with your downsizing experience, whether it's better to go fast or slow, have a deadline or not, or whatever words of wisdom you may have. Thank you so much!!! liz@lizamazing.com

Wonderful. Thank you for the contact. We will be in touch!

Hi Rozela, That's awesome, thanks so much. I do believe I will get one of those little washers one of these. Doing laundry has turned into an "event" that takes up much of the day bc we have to go to a laundromat and do it all. Would be nice to just drop a small load in at home in the rig, and then just go about my day. Thanks again and have a super weekend!

I know it is an older post, but do you have any recommendation as to the brand of this small electric washer? We are going full-time RV, decided for no W/D for the same reasons explained in the video. However, I have a very bad allergy to synthetic fragrances. Laundromats use strongly scented products both for washers and dryer that would "contaminate" my sheets or clothes. Thank you!

Congratulations on your retirement. We love the RV life but know it is not for everyone. I hope you can try it out before committing. Perhaps we'll meet you on the road someday.

Yes, truck stops have a lot to offer, even dump stations! Just wish they weren't so noisy. But we are grateful for the ease of refueling when hitched up with our rig.

And here I sit in a campground with not one but two woodworking shops! That's not the norm, but it is pretty cool that not only is there that but a big building for crafts and sewing. Thanks for watching Cassandra and see you in the next video.

Hi Hayley Jo! You are so welcome. We love this RV life-- even with all the downsides. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thank you! Hope to see you out there on the road!

Awww, thanks so much. Did you know we met on the road? Here's our story: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNyHd7h4mODLlHU.html

Thank you. We love RV life but we know it's not for everyone. For us, we see no end in sight.

Sounds heavenly! It's true that RV life isn't for everyone and I'm glad you got to experience it.

Eight years-- wow! And congratulations. We do very much LOVE this life! Hope to see you on the road! We are currently in California, you?

@@LizAmazing Yes, it would be fun to bump into you guys along the way. We are spending the winter in Arizona.

@@daveanddianethrowingcautio5707 Oh, nice! We are going to be in SoCal for the next couple three months. Enjoy!

Hi Ayushi! Whenever you and your friends go RVing, I believe it will be an epic adventure with many fun memories. I've been wanting to live this life since I was 30. Now that I am finally doing it (started at 55), it makes it so much sweeter. No regrets. Keep focused on your dreams and they will come true. Best wishes!

From UK 23.9.20.RV Living.Not Spell Ckd.Ok. Good and not good.Theres lots could be said. But not enough background re prev life. For instance the Hot Rod involvement I would have thought be worth explaining about.IE how it started and why. I only saw brief glance at a w-shop and a house. The trouble is, brief glances whet appetite but was disapointed. You could claim the film is about the RV situation but I still think a lot more should be explained. Alsoi more about his partner etrc would be good. Am pleased that they are aware of the difficulties posed by that RV way of life. This may not be popular but I feel I have the right to state that I would not have taken that step for several reasons other than those stated. Maintaining a complex vehicle without a workshop is a nitemare. Also the vehicle will almost certainly depreciate whereas a building often appreciates. Its all very well when young but spose one partner gets ill. I dont even want to think about that kind of outcome.It seems to me that people in US still have the desire for pioneer ways of life. Apparantly H Ford thought that way too. The US is very different from UK and I wonder how many in that country realise it., I worked 7 days a week sometimes 24 hours a day but RV is a small van and a 10ftx15 ft ridge tent. It astonishes me to see huge RVs by the 1000 going this way and that. The people must be very rich.I started life in a 10ft x 12 ft room and was ill. The RV depicted is as long as our house. Am also pretty tired at looking at landscapes and cityscapes. If I was forced to do a RV life I would find a site which had Water and Electric and a sewage arrangement.then put the vehicle on a hard standing Take the weight and then store wheels under cover. I would make sure the site is near to some built up area. Yes you then need a cheap car., Was thinking of putting a tarp over the unit in winter. But theres the windows to consider. The other plan I might have is to get large or ample barn and stick the RV inside. This I reckon is best, I dont know the laws in US so am dreaming. I did not see whether the couple have a second vehicle. Most of this is conjecture. Nice to see holding hands. I need more info.Why am I cautious? Its because I had a life of failure stress,disappointment which kept step with massive efforts. Have noticed on other RV shows no one seems to have or read a newspaper. Also no one even mentions what is going on in the area or country.They just chat about their own ambition and lives.Have not seen anyone yet at their wits end., No one mentioned the press reports of Trump being pursued by 26 women on sex grounds. Nor does anyone notice that his father made manoy from properyty speculation and prostitution.Also it seems people are not aware of the writing analysis we did and found a tendancy similar to that of the 3rd Reich upper levels. We indicate aggression. The level of crrptn in UK is at epidemic levels and we ourselves are experiencing police attacks because of the evidence that the BBC advised to hide it abroad. We found that all HM prefix orgs were implicated as is the HM Courts. We experienced death threats from the US security firms here. Thats the firms that beat,shot workers in 19th C US. Seems to me that the public cant be trusted when voting. Why dont we expose it? The entire media and press has told us they wont print any of it. Social media like face book,destroys the accounts and mails. We have no access to health system or welfare. No reply from 2 HM MPs. No reply from 25 Universities. The people in this road social distance is 50 meters upwards. I laid here in terrible pain for 7 yrs screaming in agony. No help. The Local Govt here say this- "If Theres Anything Wrong With Local Govt You Have To Go Get A Lawyer".Forgot to mention the horrific US Cities No wonder they raped.killed.tortured.burned to death the orig US poulation..Have a nice day.Wish we had one.

Hi Larry, sounds like you have the perfect setup for you. We love how the fifth wheel pulls...especially on windy days. I bet that's a tradeoff you are willing to make since you can use the extra storage in your truck bed-- and use it as a mini camper! Glad to hear about the washer/dryer. Someday we may get one in the RV so it's good to know that there are ways to make it work. I am grateful that I got to do this life solo before meeting Paul. What I learned is to be friendly to EVERYONE and that is the best avenue to finding a partner. I had ruled out Paul as too old but we remained friends...and you know the rest of the story! Thanks for your comment. Happy and safe travels to you!

@@LizAmazing Hi Liz, thanks for the response. I am also a plant based vegan so that makes my search for a mate that much harder and unlikely. I have a very expensive Hensley Hitch on my TT and even in high winds I don't have a problem. I have a cummings 3500 4x4 truck so that truck could pull two of my trailers no problem. Living at this base in 29 Palms is such a good deal I can't get myself to leave and with this lock down I don't see myself traveling much. Are you guys traveling or are you sheltering in place?

Awww, you are so sweet. Yes, we feel our viewers are the BEST! Thanks for your comment!

Great plan! Glad you have a rainy day strategy, sounds awesome!

I used some of the proceeds to upgrade to a better RV and put the rest in savings. I think it can be cheaper to live in an RV if you do it right. One thing that helps us is we camp at resorts for an annual average of under $5 a day and know people who do it for under $2 a day. Here's how: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mciKdpxoqb2qlWw.html

Thanks so much and congratulations on your new RV life! After two new (Grand Design) campers in a row, I can tell you my last house was the one that was the money pit! If it wasn't the dishwasher then it was the gutters needing replaced or the porch columns rebuilt. Glad to be free of that! Hope to meet you on the road someday. Happy travels!

So glad you found this video helpful. Thanks for watching and see you in the next video.

That sounds awesome to have found the perfect balance-- and you sure can't beat camping just 20 minutes from home! Wishing you much happy camping as well as crafting! Thanks for watching and for commenting!

We sure do...it does help when there is at least some service. And hi to you Bob and Deb. Thanks for commenting and Paul and I hope to meet you on the road someday.

Yes a we boost can turn 1 bar into 3 and Verizon has the best coverage but there will always be places where even that doesn't work. Some people have 2 plans AT&T plus Verizon but that gets expensive. Take Heart 5G and starlink will one day give us internet everywhere but not today. It does continue to get better. Plus there is a huge difference in weboost systems. Mine has a 25 foot mast that attaches to the side of the RV and the directional antenna draws a much better signal but you have to aim it in the right direction. When you do have internet I use sling TV to get TV. So yes internet is a big deal.

Exactly!!! Our thoughts as well! Can't beat the views out here on the road!

Thank you Susan! I bet you are looking forward to your next chapter. We hope to visit Alaska one day. Hope to meet you around the campfire sometime!

Paul says thank you, one of his prouder creations. Your idea of having a home base is a good one. Lots of advantages!

You are so welcome! Yes there are challenges for sure. Paul and I would not trade this life for living in a house. We see no end in sight to our RV life. Happy trails to you!

Hi Kris! Thanks so much!!! We love the Rv life and are glad we can share our experiences with you.

Thanks, John, those are such great tips. Safety always has to be number one. I wrecked a camper once. Here's my video about that, in case you haven't seen it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/erGHasaZ3p_NaYU.html Safe travels to you!

That's sounds great. I was solo for a year and think if I ever had to do it again, I would caravan with other solo travelers. Congrats on five years full time RV-ing. I've been dreaming about this life for decades and am now closing in on two years. Love it! Hope to see you in a campground someday!

To keep from going stir crazy being cooped up inside the rig. I invested in the camping cube by ez up. It’s a pole free enclosure with a floor that easily attaches to the frame of my existing ez up. I run a cord out and set up the tv, inflatable sofa and hang a luci lamp. I’m good for hours. Setup and breakdown takes about 30 mins with inflation/deflation.

@@jammingwithibeas1949 Awesome!

Hi Joe! Thanks so much! If we are parked next to you at a campground, maybe I will sneak over and give your machine a try! :) Honestly, we are not 100% opposed to having a washer/dryer in our rig. BUT the weight is probably going to make it a deal breaker.

That is perfect for a couples! I do use Bluetooth headphones and Paul has Bluetooth earbuds. They really are great for couples living in small spaces. Thank you.

Thanks Katherine, glad to have you with us!

Thank you so much! We actually drove over 100 miles to get that package. We are finding that FedEx is having big problems these days and packages are often late. Paul and I hope to meet you two on the road someday. Looks like you two are having a lot of fun! I told Paul how I was fooled with the clap-on fireplace. That was a good one!

@@LizAmazing 100 miles?! Oh my goodness, that is such a bummer that it it turned out that way. YES! We would love to find you guys on the road! Love how flexible RV'ing is and how it's not that unrealistic to make happen! You guys are a great inspiration with your videos, content and followers! KEEP IT UP! We are laughing now thinking of that fireplace, we are glad it was a hit 😄

Oh good. Glad to hear it. See you in the next video.

Yes, RV life is not for everyone. I agree 100%. Glad you guys gave it a try!

Hi Kathy! Yes, we do, too! Right now I am sitting on a bench outside the laundromat. While it is not my favorite part, it is a very small part of the RV life. We do laundry every 7-10 days. I always bring my computer so I am occupied. We want to go to Alaska someday-- good for you that we went. Agreed that Covid has changed the way RVers travel. Hope to meet you on the road someday-- once you get back to travel.

Yes! We got one a few months ago and did a review. As long as you are not camping near leafy trees you'll be fine. Happy travels.

Well said! Really, RV life is about living, not about stuff. We talk about that more here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7-XYK2Kt92lhJ8.html

Sounds like a good plan! Happy travels to you and hope to meet you on the road someday.

I think you will find RV life to be full of wonderful people with so many places to see and adventures to be had. Do give it a try before you jump in with both feet.

You are so welcome. Paul is ready to meet you on the road sometime.

Hi Thomas! Congrats on living life on the road! We love it. Yep, older dogs are something to consider. Our dog is 13 and we have to make accommodations for him as he seems to be not liking travel as much. That was so great that you mentioned about couples needing to be on the same page. You will likely have some stressful travel days. Here's our story about campground stress and our tips: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j-CqlKuYrbernIk.html

Awesome! Hope to see you out here!!

Thanks Deborah. That is so cool that you travel every summer. We have a Thousand Trails membership which helps so much. We basically camp for $50 a month, but you would have to be able to justify $600 a year so it may or may not be worth it for you. Here's more info: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mciKdpxoqb2qlWw.html

Yes, it is a GREAT life for the right person. Paul and I pinch ourselves practically every day that we get to live our dream!

Wise words there, thank you so much! We've met several folks who start out this life on a huge cross country trek super-fast. One couple had been on the road for less than a month and questioning whether this life was for them. We met them in Oregon and they'd left just weeks ago from Florida. WAY too fast!!! I'd want to get out, too, if I went that fast. Too much stress all that driving and too little life.

Yep, if you can survive trapped in an elevator with your partner, you will do just fine!

You are so welcome! RV life can be lived in so many different ways that I am sure you will your own unique perspective. Looking forward to seeing your tips!

You are so welcome. RV life is not for everyone. There are so many ways to do this life that the possibilities are limitless.

Thanks so much, Joshua! Hope to see you out here someday!

Hi Scott! Yes, the RV community is the best! We are slowly building a community of campers. So fun when we see each other down the road at different campgrounds. Still, we both miss meeting friends for lunch and going to get togethers and that sort of thing. Overall, we love RV life and see no end in sight.

Thank you, we are glad to have you with us, Emily!

Wow, Bernadette, you could write a book. What a fascinating life! Sounds like a wonderful dream. Thanks for writing-- !

Yep! We are also Amazon Prime and do like that there is an Amazon Locker option sometimes. We are finding that these days deliveries are getting delayed. And I am thinking we may end up with a washer/dryer someday. Or maybe one of those small portable ones, just so I can wash my blouses or if I spill something. Thanks for your comment and safe travels, Gus!

@@LizAmazing Hi, I have one of the small portable washer/spinner and I love it! Weighs around 20 pounds and is easy to move. Does a good job quickly on most household and clothes. Just have to keep to smaller loads. The spinner really gets about 95% of the water out. I can do a wash load in about 3 minutes, drain- rinse, then spin for about 3 minutes and done!

Good to know! Thanks so much. I think I need to get one. Happy washing to you!

I love that! I think if I were solo again I would join a group like that so I can have companionship while checking out the sights and safety while camping. You have just six months to go. I hope you have a countdown calendar so you can see the days go by as you get closer. Congrats on your upcoming new chapter in life!

Yes, we are hoping they will get it ramped up soon for RVers, can't wait! And we are excited that you are going to live full-time in your RV. Happy planning!

Yes! That's what's so cool about RV life, there are endless possibilities. It sounds wonderful to just hunker down on your own land and enjoy life. Thanks for your comment!

I'll have my fingers crossed for you that you get back to Tennessee by October without getting stopped. I think you have a good chance! I did the solo life for a year and am glad I did. Be safe out there.

@@LizAmazing thanks. When I left Tennessee, the DMV was closed due to COVID. So I think I have a good excuse. My trailer tags are current. That helps too.

Hi and welcome to the A-Team! Reading through the comments, you'll find this is a great community of supportive helpful folks. Paul and I were just talking about that video and we very may well do a follow-up someday. We didn't mention healthcare and getting prescriptions on the road, for example. While the RV life is truly not for everyone, I can honestly say I have never been happier in my life. I was dreaming of this life for 25 years. I don't think I am ever going back! Thanks for your comment and let us know when you get out on the road- Paul and I would love to meet you at a campground someday.
