We have survived full timing just fine, whether in the heat or in the cold. We wintered out here in Virginia to experience being with grand kids and have not regretted it. However, having said that, we would like to do Florida next year just because it's there. We sold our 3200 sq ft sticks and bricks for a break even price and have never regretted it. Put the money in our rig and never looked back. My brother was talking by phone this morning about not having time to clean the brush down by the lake and I responded that I haven't had time to clean the grill. He plans on joining the FT crowd soon. Wish we had done it sooner. DW and I have pensions and SS and with a paid for rig we're saving money. I feel like if we had raised our kids as full timers we would all be better for it. The diversity in their lives would not have been equaled and with those experiences they would have been able to face any challenge. We truly envy you your experience with your kids.
