6 weeks, 5 States, 2,480 miles....

Well, we've finished our first retirement trip and we're back home. I can't believe how many miles we traveled and how many states we camped in....North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama. All the campgrounds were nice but 2 had "issues". One on the coast had biting gnats and the one in Alabama was near a paper mill, stinky and clanging machinery all night long. But that's the nice thing about RVing if you don't like your surroundings you just move on.

We met a lady who has traveled fulltime in her Roadtrek for 8 years. She has no other home and she follows the seasons and workcamps from New Hampshire to Florida. We also met a couple who have the same year Roadtrek as us and it was fun seeing how their's was set up.

It was hard to come home because we felt free as the breeze, as snug as a bug in our little home on wheels. I know people can't amagine living in such a small space but we didn't have any problems. The dogs even enjoyed it. When we got home our house seemed sooo big. But we are adjusting. LOL
