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!!
I found out this week that the company I work for is being sold and I will be unemployed by mid-July. Not too good when we're trying to stash away some major savings for our launch into full timing. BUT WAIT! Between my severance package and 6 months of unemployment benefits, I will be getting paid right up to when we planned to start full timing next April. I'm looking forward to the time off to get the rig and house ready. Sometimes things happen for a reason and just work out right?
Absolutely! I am a firm believer that things happen (and sometimes don't) for a reason. That was our situation as well - we were planning our lifestyle - taking it relatively slowly and step-by-step, until I was laid off from work and we were forced to put our plans in fast forward so that we could sell the house (instead of it going into foreclosure) (also turns out my former employer became a client of mine).
Wishing you all the best and a smooth transition.
