We are now in the perhaps a bit unique position of owning two motorhomes.  We alrady had one, and knowing we were going to upgrade before going full time, I’ve been watching a lot of “for sale” situations on diesel pushers (DP for short). I found a really good deal on one and decided to

We have planned all along to upgrade our RV as the time to go full time got closer.  I’ve developed a habit of watching RV Trader for what seem to be really good deals.  So far, I’ve looked at three.  The first two were “too good to be true” – great price, great descriptions, even

But we are deep into the down sizing process.  We’ve moved a seeming mountain of boxes to storage, and took the dining room set over yesterday.  We aren’t keeping it, but our youngest wants

THAT is the question for the day!  We’re now just about a month away from doing an estate sale, and only two weeks away from having to turn the house over to the estate sale company to get it set up for the sale.  I think we’re running out of time, and certainly energy, to

Actually, the reasoning is not totally clear.  Probably at least in part because I can, in part as a kind of journal about our planned journey for the next few years, and partly ego.  So, dear reader (in the future perhaps referred to as “DR”), take everything in here with a large grain of salt,

After much discussion, and more than a little trepidation, we’ve decided to move from a traditional “sticks and stones” home to going full time in an RV.  Associated with this, is the decision that I will be joining my wife in retirement sometime in the next year or so and we think traveling the country
