I'll confess, I've been a lurker here for about a year, I found it while lookin' for recipes, most of which are very good and simple. My wife Suzanne and I Hope to be fulltiming in the next 1-2yrs, depending on family issues, aging parents, needy (but grown) kids and now 2 grandboys. We have owned 5 motorhomes in the past 17yrs. and currently own a 1999 Country Coach Allure, which we believe will be our rolling condo someday as these things are Built to Last (IMHO). I am still working at 51 with a power company (30yrs.) but I think we can make it if I retire and do some workamping or caretaking. We still own a home in northern mn. with a 40x60 MH garage (that I will miss) but will be selling to aid finances. I'm very tired of the brutal winters and am not looking forward to the coming one. I was born and raised in Arkansas (Airforce brat) and moved around a lot while growing up, which has given me what Suzanne and my mom describe as "Gypsy Blood". Suzanne has lived in the same area her whole life, but is a sport and enjoys the traveling we have done so I think she'll adapt well. OK that's my story, Thank You all for the great forum!! I appreciate the opportunity to be a part of it!

Welcome, Keven and Suzanne!
Jim is usually the first to welcome one and all, but I guess he has gone to a Saturday football game or is playing hooky golf. Therefore, let me be the first to welcome your shedding the "lurker garments" and letting us get to meet you in person.
Obviously you like what you have seen and are officially one of us now!
OK, Jim, you do the official honors!
