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!!

While here in Florida tonite we watched the Discovery go up right in back of our RV. What a thrill. Posting some picts in our journal. I guess that is a plus for us RVer's to be where we want to be at times.

We watched it as well,  we are in the middle of FL. and when it was not hidden by the clouds it was a wonderful sight.  At the resort where we are well over 200 people watched it.
Back in Nov. we drove over to Titusville and watched the lift off from across the causeway, and that was a great lift off.

I would love to see that too. I did witness the shuttle re-entry when it exploded over Texas. I did not know at the time what I was seeing but when I heard... it answered some of the questions I had. I could not figure out what all the contrails coming off the shuttle were? Of course later I understood what I had witnessed...That was a sad moment in our lives.

We saw it too - but from the Lake Okeechobee area. We had just visited NASA the week before and saw a rocket launch. We saw your blog notes and concur that it's a great place to visit.

Can't imagine the thrill of watching the shuttle from so close! The sound of those powerful rockets must truly be amazing! We'll pray for the scientists and astronauts to have a safe return.
