I came to Bob’s website around August of 2020, then life changed for all of us and hubby and I pretty much hunkered down at our home base. And let me tell you, staying put just about broke my heart. My husband is a plant manager for a big company so he continued to work but I feel like I stagnated. As always life goes on last month I loaded up our Promaster for a visit to family in Nevada. Had a blast but I learned a few things about myself. The Promaster was a little bit scary at times. In New Mexico there was a wind gust that took me by surprise and I felt like I was holding on to a big sail. Lucky for me I did not end up stuck in a ditch or down the side of that hill. I still want to travel, but I really didn’t like the Promaster and the thought of pulling a camper takes the fun out of my exploring.
Yesterday I got a call from a friend, her mother who is elderly had decided to sell her 2018 Dodge Grand Caravan, I only had to pay the existing loan off. So 15k later I now own a minivan (2018) with 5015 miles on it. Had my son look at it and he said high 5 mom it’s perfect .
Today I purchased a Jackery solar battery and the panels to run the small fridge i also purchased. Spending time on Amazon getting a few other odds and ends I will start my no build build haha. I don’t know where my first trip in it will be, but I figured I might go to quartzite just to look around. It’s a destination.
I truly look forward to traveling, seeing parts of the country I have never seen, and if possible meeting others who hate to sit in one place like I do. Hubby is relieved that I will leave the Promaster alone lol we joke about how I am probably the only person so started in a huge travel trailer, went to a high top cargo van then on to a minivan. I think most people move up to larger vehicles. Not me….I am different lol
See you around!!
