Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

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.

Dee & Jim

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?

Dixie

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...

Marv
