We're one step closer to our fulltime dream. Three years ago today we decided to start the search to become fulltimers. We had a date of March 2012, but when we went to the RV-Dreams rally, we learned we could go a lot sooner.
Today, 3 yrs later we are proud owners of the truck we'll be using for fulltime. 2007 GMC, 3500, white, Duramax diesel with Allison transmission, dually truck. We are putting the condo up for sale March 1, 2009. I thought I'd let everyone know we're getting there. Thank you Howard & Linda, without you it would have never got this close.

Gina and I wish the very best for ya'll next year. If you cannot see it we are toasting ya'll right now for happy travels and hope our paths cross in the future. Also wishing that you all have a quick sale of the condo so you all can start living that RV-Dream.

Congratulations Jim and Dee
We are selling our belongings and plan on putting the house up for sale in the Spring too. Hopefully both of ours will sell quickly.
We were wondering what you learned at the RV Dreams Rally that convinced you that you could go fulltiming sooner?

Congratulations Jim & Dee !!
You've got a very good start to your Next new Adventure in your retired life.
I bet you some days feel like time is dragging on... while waiting for the sale of the Condo. The day will soon come... and you'll be looking out side mirror of that new truck... pulling away from your old life...
But the best is yet to come !! Soon you both will be starting your Next Adventure.. I hope it brings the same feelings as Karen and I have... each time we hitch up... and travel roads yet to be explored.
I wish you both the very best !! Perhaps we one day will share a camp fire... and a few good stories...
