I just had a look at the recipe, it sounds delicious, and i'm adding it to my list to try! Tonight It's just simple pasta and pesto...a few pics on the way. Nothing fancy, but turned out great with the items i have at home. Just me and the cat here since my wife passed last month. Just...

I'm still at home, trying to figure my next steps in life, but I've been using some foodstuff that i have on hand to makes some meals and save some cash-so tonight it's baked bbq tofu and leftover rice that i just reheated and some fresh veggies on the side. I had most of the ingredients for...

What a gorgeous bird, thanks for sharing a beautiful picture! I hope to get on the road soon and live a life worth living.

I'm sorry to read that. I hope NorthCountryBen that you ok and recovering.

We bought a small RV that was a rental from Road Bear if I remember correctly, a Coachman 19cb. It was a good price with only 35000 miles...it was used one year as a rental then fleet was sold. I don't have any complaints. Purchased 2016.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We bought a used 19' class c rental and have no complaints.  We also did not want a slide and wanted to keep the layout simple and glad we did, plus it was a bargain too.  We have had it almost five years, and though we still are not FT due to health issues, i am confident of its...

We might get fog in the morning due to colder temps today, high humidity and warming up tomorrow, for us fog is a treat, well, i think it is anyway and i'm excited.  I hope it holds true.  Still at home dealing with spouse's chemo treatments.  CT scans on Thursday, and we are hoping for good...

Command Strips!  :D

Dang!  That is fantastic! Congratulations!

*Also most folks will increase their traveling with retirement so they can see the grandkids…. ;-) LOL, none for us! We just want to increase traveling to view more birds, natural areas and eat tacos!

That is a very good point, i do think the assumption of 25X is maintaining your current standard of living...whatever that may be.  Thanks for the perspective!

Well i think we are all feeling the effects of inflation, that is for certain and that does makes sense regarding the 25X not meaning years, but rather to have the nest egg recover and grow for the next cycle of withdrawal. I guess in the end we all make it work out, one way or the other, i...

I hear you loud and clear on that note!  But...i do love the long summer days/nights up north....but who will shovel the walk and drive in winter?  You might be onto something with the southern home base!

We are keeping house...for hospice reasons.  After that who knows.  Hopefully hospice lasts twenty years.

Rig will be paid off in a few weeks! I agree about retiring sooner than later...one's time is finite.

Yes, the 25X ASSUMES you'll live another 25 years.  With our recent medical issues we have budgeted $5,000 out of pocket yearly for medical our max out of pocket per the insurance as of now , (not including health insurance premiums) the 5K will most likely be constant until end of life.

I'm trying to figure out how to manage retirement, or not having to work so much and this notion or reference of 25X your yearly expenses keeps coming up in web searches.  Did you, as a nomad,  have this "magical" amount before you hit the road?  We have some "passive" income coming in...meaning...

There is a lot of infection in Montana too, but people here seem to ignore science and reality.

I think this would be fun! I hope we can soon be on the move from our home base. This would be out first foray into caravans...we need some desert time!
