Ok, I'm in serious "rv dreams" mode now. I read about everyone who picks up and goes where the wind takes them. Or chases the sun across the Sun Belt. Or just stays put for long-ish periods of time.

Here's what I'm thinking. I live in western Washington, it does have its faults, but it is an outdoor paradise. The rains keep things lush and green. The rainforests are so green they shimmer. In the eastern part of the state, there's scrubland that reminds me of California. Brown hills! Yeah! One state down from me is Oregon, famous coastline, mountains, dense forests, high desert, take yer pick! You could almost cut Portland off, put a fence around the state and call it Oregon National Park.

I'm almost thinking of "localized" full-timing. Staying right around my corner of the country. I think travelling north-south, back and forth would be too hard on me and the pocketbook. I want space too, for me, sitting in a place like Quartzite surrounded by 1,000 other rvs would kill my soul. In eastern Oregon, there's plenty of space for a person to breath. Yes, it will be cold in winter, but saying the rig is outfitted for four season, should be able to survive the winter?

I realize this is probably a jumbled topic. Lots of questions in one topic. But to be specific...

1. Have you ever considered localized fulltiming?

2. Have you considered full-timing in a cold climate? These two states (WA and OR) aren't Wyoming cold, but are below freezing. I guess for warmth, go west and sit in the rain for three months!

3. Have you ever wanted to be a full-time boondocker and live an "Into The Wild" experience? (Without the stupid mistakes of course.)
