Here we go......

The maiden voyage in our new home. How very exciting for us! After years of planning, we are on our way to this new lifestyle called "Full-timing". We are selling our house, affectionately termed a "stick n' brick, and living and traveling full time in our RV. Our new abode may be small, but it has everything we need. And the backyard!! That will be the most amazing, as it will change every few weeks as we criss-cross the country. Please note that for us, this phase of our lives is only possible thanks to modern technology such as cell phones and internet. I don't think we could leave our family and friends without being able to communicate so easily and frequently. So, with that, let me show you some pictures of our new place....we are still learning, so each day gets better and better as we are able to figure out how to  use things, like the radio! And the heat....its been freezing at night, literally. We don't want any water lines freezing.

See... pretty nice,  huh? Certainly not camping, that's for sure. We have been on the road now for almost 2 weeks, in Virginia, spending time visiting with our kids, hiking, and visiting some historic sites. I'll save that for the next post.

    1. Hi Donna
      I moved the link "follow by email". It's right above "blog archive" on the right hand side of the page. Hope it works now. I tested on myself and it worked:)
