Good to learn that up front. Summers here are great but it's sure nice to run away from winter. I hope you get to do all that.

Thanks for the update! All too often the things that we own, control us. Quote Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

davida Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 We studied, planned, saved and nothing has turned out per our plan - it's all better (sorta). Quit our jobs at 47 and 51, lived off sell of house. Market dump and "lost" half our savings. Went into selling ads for campgrounds - great job. Did that part time for several years. full timed for 13. At 69, David diagnosised with pancreatic cancer, its a miracle he is still alive but fulltime no more. Unplanned inherited parents house, its now our medical base. There's a lot more to this story. Plan what you can but roll with the punches. I'm grateful we had the 13 years full timing and exploring, a wonderful experience. What if we'd waited til 62 or 65...
