Its Time!

Well its time to start the adventure. We close on the house on the 5th and hit the road for fulltime fun! I retired last friday and have been planning this for years.



I was quite surprised that the house sold so fast.
So I did the work that was needed and put the house up for sale. Well COVID-19 enters the picture. I was figuring that NOBODY was going to come look at my house. What I did figure was I'd get it out there on the market and when all this calmed down people would start looking again.
Well boy was I wrong! 2 days on the market and lots of interest. Lots of appointments and 7 offers, all over asking. I did not count on this. Just when you think you know what is going to happen...it does not. Scratchin' my head go figure.



So its off to a local campground (Florida, NY) for the first week after closing. I figure it will take a week to organize the rig and ourselves! Then its off to a COE in Missouri to see a friend and then maybe the Badlands and Custer SP?



Wish me luck!

Thanks Bob! The Rats almost got me but....I had just enough left in the tank to escape! I'm sure I'll be posting all sorts of nonsense about my travels so be prepared to be bored.

Congrats and enjoy the ride and stay safe and healthy. Up here in Canada we can only travel in our own province for now but then again Ontario is twice the size of Texas so lots to see that we have not already

Thanks Coveman2!


Hopefully things get back to normal soon. Part of the plan was to get to your country and see it. I have been to Newfoundland and the Yukon, British Columbia. Would love to get back there.

Thanks Jerry! Will do. That's a great Idea. I certainly can babble all about my travels.

Congrats.

Angie and I are in our 3901 in Pigeon Forge, heading for Atlantic Beach, NC to see our granddaughter in the USCG. May run into you along the way. Stay safe.

You are lucky to be able to travel between states, up here in Canada its not advised to do other than necessary travel, have been driveway camping just for a change. We do what we would do if we were out on the road. Had two neighbours over for an outdoor movie night to see RV for the third time.
Safe travels and stay safe
