As much as I like to travel, I no longer love to drive.Gaelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05784162697113288888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-46805522630766358242018-10-12T19:03:55.365-04:002018-10-12T19:03:55.365-04:00Sounds like a great plan to me.

But when I want to take off for a couple of days or a couple of weeks, she's there. Right now, that's the best thing for me, and with your beautiful home and yard, you have lots to enjoy at home. Traveling when you want will be the frosting on the cake. Glad you're feeling better! :)Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-74388643481922371442018-10-12T16:17:25.962-04:002018-10-12T16:17:25.962-04:00We were observant when we traveled and noticed tha...We were observant when we traveled and noticed that "70" seemed to be the magic number when many went to "part-timing." The reasons were as you listed them. We focus more on all we were able to see and do rather than opine about not being able to travel long distances. There is also a sense of security to have a permanent home if illness strikes as it did with me. However, do plan your short trips and keep illness at bay!DeeBevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285983988049210263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-54523686498087804192018-10-12T12:53:28.212-04:002018-10-12T12:53:28.212-04:00I went from an RV to a combination of tent camping...I went from an RV to a combination of tent camping and motels as I traveled across country every year. Now I've mostly hung it all up. Do I miss it? Terribly! Could I go back to it? I doubt it. Life moves on and sometimes we have to change our ideas of what we want and need. Life is still good!Gypsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052445200220681513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-58287370783290442392018-10-12T12:26:24.727-04:002018-10-12T12:26:24.727-04:00I understand.

We've only done one long 6 month trip in our motorhome and the whole time I wished it wasn't has large and cumbersome to drive and I wasn't fussy about the towing. If I had my druthers, I'd be in a Unity Class C with a murphy bed for sure!! Good luck with the sale and I'm sure you will come up with the perfect solution in a rig to take you into many more years of part time travel!Britbabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09684140801578950539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-84919398503426013052018-10-12T11:23:52.834-04:002018-10-12T11:23:52.834-04:00Not surprised at all.

Someone will be getting a beautiful and well-made home when they buy the Big E - it is one of the nicest rigs I've ever been in. I can hear the relief in your "voice" just knowing the decision is made and you can start a new chapter. With two drivers and more mobility you'll likely get excited about travel again. Looking forward to seeing winter in Ontario through your keen eye!Jodee Gravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02247098923871155546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10886995.post-87352817332918238842018-10-12T08:21:18.336-04:002018-10-12T08:21:18.336-04:00Glad you are feeling better.

I look forward to seeing your next RV. We are. Heading out this morning with our small trailer. A "Taylor Coach" campout. It is fun seeing everyone's rig as no two are the same.
