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!!

Our life changed 2 yrs ago, hubby was laid off, and I had medical issues. So we fixed me, and sold our lives, went on the road and were to live happy ever-after...........
NOT
About a month ago, hubby gets a call from a company with an incredible job offer, the "once in a lifetime" job.  Problem, Mom in AZ we travel the SW, and job in SE Texas.
Solution, sold MH, selling Mom's house and moving all to Texas, back to stick & brick for us. 
You might as why we sold the MH. Well with this job, we are not going to be able to travel that much, and with tags, plates, insurance, upkeep, and storage it simply is not worth the money, we can rent a MH cheaper for what time off he will have.
So   in 10 yrs or so we will try the retirement thing again, but in the meantime, I'm glad for the time we had, but Mom is getting up there and needs more attention, and so Houston here we come.  I will still lurk here, and live through you all, but have hung up the wheels.

PS, something else good did come of all this, we sold the MH for only 1,000 less than we paid for it :)   Cheap rental for 1-1/2 yrs :)

You can always go back to the travel lifestyle.....but "incredible" job offers don't always come around in this economy. You will love Houston....I used to live in Katy, TX....west of Houston. Good luck and keep posting!

Thank you all for words of encouragement :)   Yes we will have our memories, and our 10 yr goal will be to do this again :)
BTW   We love Katy, TX, just too far from his work, we are looking in Sugar Land or Pearland to live.

Sounds like excellent news.  These changes keep us on our toes.  I imagine starting out the second time (in 10 years) will be just as fun!
