And we begin.

Here is how I let my online community know I was hitting the road:


Sat, we should chat.

RELIC and I are considering (oh heck more than considering, we've about got it decided) that we're doing a southern Swing this winter....starting here in Cleveland and swinging down thru Ark/Mo/Tenn etc, down thru Texas when it is civilized temperature, west across Rt 66, and home up along or thru the Rockies and back East, with obvious adjustments as time and "stuff" like job hunting and Work-camping permit.In a couple days I'll pop a thread about this up on the Corkboard...would love to meet a few folks along the way.....we'll be doing it with a motorhome....



I'm posting that in a members contact area on the website/BBS and we'll see if we can't get a coherent plan together for 3 months....

Got turned on to http://www.escapees.com/index2.asp and expect that, within a couple days we'll be joining, since they have a LOT of VERY helpful info for tyro's like us.

The Georgie Boy is sitting in the shop, where it is going to get a bunch of stuff we KNOW about worked on, and then a bumper to bumper check.
We're thinking about an SKP "Boot Camp" in Tx in November, which pretty much gives us a REASON to have the house in listable and mothballable condition by Halloween, which is the current goal.

This blog is REALLY going to chronicle our labors in getting our selves ONTO the road, the stuff we do to the house, the stuff we do for the camper, the cats, etc. It's hopefully going to give rise to a checklist for folks who want to completely change their lives from traditional suburban living to Fulltiming it On The Road....

So, check back periodically, feel free to tell me I have my head on crooked (or stored someplace warm n moist) and help us out.
