Dreams of Full Timing Off/On the Grid

Hi Ray

Just found the mail you wrote in January. Have read it a few times this morning. Truly appreciate your sharing this experience. I have no aspirations to full time, but do want to wander a bit. Am picking up my Airstream on Tuesday. Have read absolutely everything about the lifestyle and its ups and downs. My impression is that I will see wonderful places on my own schedule. Along the way, I hope to meet some fascinating people. I expect there will be more good days than bad and my plan is to look for the positive side of everything that happens out there. Retired a year ago and have thought about this for a long time. Can't wait to get started!

As a father, I have been accused ( when the kids were younger ) of being a bubble burster. Luckily the kids now usually know to think things out. Even still, reality doesn't always measure out to how things look on paper. I think Ray gave good fatherly advice on why to think twice and try it before you commit.
