Well this weekend is going to be rainy and cool so inside work on the rv will be the deal. Have some things to fix and repair. I orders some eterabond tape and on the next nice weekend will get on top and reseal all the seams and around all the vents, pipes and skylights. I want to make sure I have no problems with leaks. After I get that done, then I'll put on a new coat of silvercoat. No rubber roof on this 5vr. Still have some repairs to do on one of the holding tanks and will have to drop it down to get to the leaking area. Plenty to keep me busy for a while. Did manage to get everything in its place, but still have to get the tools together that I want to carry with us. We are getting ready to plan a trip up to High Falls State Park for a weekend. I want to check out how this tows before we take our trip to Memphis, and make sure all is ok. I have 2014 days till retirement and still counting down. Love it. Well have a good trip to where ever you travels take you.

I guess I should introduce myself. I am a Dutchman, a Veteran and am looking to retire in 2016. I came from the class of 2020 when I thought I would not be able to retire until then. I am still working full time and vacation as much as possible. The DW and I live fulltime in our new to us 2001 Dutchmen ES33 5th wheel. Although it needs some work, we already love the extra room it gives us with the 2 rear slides. We pull it with our, again, new to us 1998 Chevy dually 6.5TB diesel. We have turned our home over to our DD, her husband and 3 children. They needed the extra room and it gives them a good start in life. They will have it paid off many years prior to their retirement with many years left to enjoy. It took us a while to downsize, about a year, but we did it. Looking back, I don't know why we had such a big place and so much stuff. Most we never looked at or used. I guess that is the American dream. So much for me, now it's your turn. What are your plans to make it to retirement and live as a fulltimer.

Welcome everyone, to the CLASS OF 2016, where it's never too early to have fun. Tell us about yourselves and what you are doing to get to your graduation in 2016. We can discuss anything and everything. One rule..... have fun doing it.
