I just bid farewell to my youngest - off to Basic, AIT and then to college. I have 2 years until I can draw full retirement - but I'm not your typical retiree. My plan is to work 2 more years and prep to downsize. I do primitive camping whenever I can and just love being in nature - it's healing to my soul. Traveling full-time cross country in a RV has always been on my internal bucket list and I often pondered how I was going to check that off the list - then I found CRVL and Bob's instructional videos on YouTube. I am fascinated at the creativity and the minimalism shown and the sincere desire to help each other as a community. I will continue to watch, learn, ponder and plan and who knows in the coming years I might join a caravan making their the RTR.
2 years to go before retiring...

Welcome to the CRVL forums KathyLee! "Typical retiree" is not a good description for any of us either so you'll fit right in! 
If you can, come to the RTR in Jan. A lot to learn and many creative people with interesting living quarters and innovative ideas.

Thanks for the welcome! I plan to stick around - read, learn, think, plan and downsize... I drive a Suzuki Grand Vitara - mini SUV - contemplating how to customize my needs to get my feet wet - with my golden-doodle tagging along... and then who knows...
