There and Back Again - Eventually

We are less than two weeks away from beginning our next adventure, living full-time in an RV. Our house is sold, most of the furniture is gone, and we've used up all the confectioner's sugar. Time to move!

We have purchased an RV which is currently in Florida. We will leave Colorado Springs and drive to Bowling Green, FL (yes, there is a Bowling Green outside of Kentucky). We plan to spend a couple of weeks there figuring out how everything works and how not to hit important things (gas pumps, curbs, people) with the RV before we move out.

In the last few weeks we have driven to South Dakota, where we are now residents, and flown to Florida to look at the RV we have chosen. It's a 2011 40-foot Tiffin Phaeton. (If you want specs, talk to Marv.) Once I figure out how to add photos to this blog, you can bet I'll post a picture of our RV.

We ate so much home-made pie on those two trips that we have decided on a ratings system of 1 to 5 pie slices. For example, our hotel in SD was 2 slices but the food at Firehouse Brewing in Rapid City was 4 slices, even though they didn't serve home-made pie.

We expect to learn a lot in a short period of time. You'll get to hear about our ups and downs as well as where we go and what we do. I hope you'll find the blog interesting!
