The Great RV Escape: Winterization
http://thegreatrvescape.blogspot.com/2013/10/winterization.html
The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. If we needed one more thing to remind us we're no longer traveling full time, we got it today. We winterized the moose. The National Weather Service issued a Freeze Warning as temperatures were forecasted to dip well into the 20s Thursday night. We pulled Bullwinkle out of storage, parked him in our driveway and turned on the heat. The moose made it through the chilly night just f...The p...

The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. As I ponder the possible subjects for the last of my 366 daily snaps of the year, and Paul considers the first of his for tomorrow, we find ourselves reflecting in the final hours of 2012. This was a year that didn't exactly go as planned. (Do they ever? Was an unexpected and welcome treat. Our now trouble-free moose has made us happy campers, indeed! As fun as it was to revisit familiar ...

The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. Did we really say we bought a house? Technically, we haven't bought it just yet. We made an offer, which has been accepted. We're currently in escrow. (And, that's such an exciting place to be! So, what's up? What prompted these two nomads to cough up the cash for a 2,100-square-foot split level in the 'burbs? Perhaps the best way to explain what's up is to answer a few questions. We feel...

The Great RV Escape: Time, Energy and Money
http://thegreatrvescape.blogspot.com/2013/07/time-energy-and-money.html
The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. Time, Energy and Money. We thought this move would be simple. Who were we foolin'? It's been six weeks since we became land barons. By this time we were sure we'd be settled. Life would be normal, or close to it. The transition from living in a rolling home to a stick and brick house would be a distant memory. We're making progress. But, we are surprised at how much energy this never-...

The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. Four years ago today we set off on our Great RV Escape.

Lesson #2: America Rocks. Lesson #3: Age is Just a Number. Lesson #4: Go Outside. When we hit the...

http://thegreatrvescape.blogspot.com/2014/03/one-long-winter.html
The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. It's the first day of Spring Break around here. The sun is shining.

The Great RV Escape. Chronicles of a couple of Baby Boomers traveling the country fulltime in a motorhome for awhile. That has been the phrase of the day. Dozens of times we've found ourselves saying it to each other. We're getting there.". That short little phrase is a sign of progress. Without a doubt. It's been a week since we signed on the dotted line and got the keys to this place. Since then we've been busy cleaning, moving, unpacking, shopping and assembling. Yep We've done a lot of assembling.
