Finally full timing

WOOHOO! We are now official full timers. We moved the last of the stuff into the Suite last night and it is really full. The down side at this point is that we dont have internet access unless we are at work or the local Hardees. Got to get a bigger shed, the Suite is really full. The next few days we will be trying to figure out how best to store everything as the Suite is really full. Today is supposed to be the first 80 degree day of the year so we will probably be eating on the deck because the Suite is......well, you know.

You know, after full timers comes old timers. Can't get internet? Where are you staying, in the back yard? I get wifi everywhere. Have fun with your new life.

Does that mean you need a BIGGER truck to pull it???? haar Especially if you have to eat some Hardees everytime you need the internet!!

Enjoy your new adventure! Come on up to the Canadian Mini Rally!!

Cheers,
Bill

Congrats!

I hope you enjoy being fulltimers.

We are fulltimers and for the last 2 1/2 years we have been useing a Verizon air card and a Smooth Talker cell booster. It(smooth talker) works great..Esp. when we are on the fringes of coverage, like right now, we are at Camp Creek St. Park in West Virginia, deep in a hollow.

We travel alot but also stay in the same place for sometimes months at a time.

Just food for thought....

Good luck and have fun...

And remember, most MATERIAL THINGS are REPLACABLE.....

That's what I had to tell myself when I downsized to become a fulltimer..

Thats great Tom! I wish we could do that. Living in the north full time will be a challenge, but I'm sure you have it all worked out. Enjoy!!

Full Timing

Congratulations Tom, We have been fulltiming for about 2 years. Love it and guess what? I will be a retiree as of May 1st. We had the same too much stuff. It is now in storage and everything worked out okay. You just cannot keep everything. You have to learn to let go.
See you soon.
