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!!

Hello from Port Hadlock, WA
Permalink  

Hey everyone.

Ron and Kay here in Port Hadlock, WA…recently transplanted here from Durango, Colorado.

I've personally toured many parts of the world to include Alaska and Europe, on a bicycle.  Talk about downsizing. :)  Joking aside, I did happen to own a home during those extended adventures so I wasn't exactly "full-timing" on the bike, but I happen to know people who took off on a bicycle tour and decided to make it a permanent lifestyle, retire and stay on the road, etc.  

Anyway, this is an RVing forum and we've owned a few, to include a fairly large toy-hauler TT but the photo shows our current rig.  We'll be in a home on the beach here for a couple of years from the looks of it but plan on hitting the road full time in a DP shortly after I turn 50.

So, see you on the road! …one way or another.  :)

Welcome aboard, Ron. You are a lot more outdoorsy than me. Although I was young once. Bicycle camping would be truly roughing it.

Thanks for your service. They even allow retired Navy on here! (Sorry Jesse, I couldn't pass up the opportunity.)

We were just by you visiting someone at the Escapees co-op in Chimacum, which is next door to Port Hadlock.

Escapees co-op?  I've read about the Escapees, but….they have a co-op in Chimacum?  ?

I first started considering going full-time in a MH back in 2005 and again in 2008.  This time we happened to meet a full-time couple in a campground out near Lake Crescent and after visiting with them for a while, for once it seems like I have full buy-in by my partner.   So I believe that she and I will be finally setting out in 2016 or 2017.

We'll see.  We've liquidated our properties and are currently in a nice rental.  The amount of stuff we have is fairly minimal, we'll simply need to trade what we have left for RV-sized versions.  Don't think the 400 pound dining table for 10 will be going on the road with us, etc…  About two years will be needed to get our finances better primed, etc.  After-all, we've only been to one small RV show and still have to figure out what kind of full-timing is right for us.

Cheers!
