2Gypsies, We would stay out west because we love it and so much to see! Children live in Indiana and Tennesse, so at longest we would only be somewhere 3-4 months then come back to this area for awhile and take off again. That is really all the longer I could probably be away from kids and grandbabies. Now I'm doing research on areas close to each sons home that we could camp for extended time. That way maybe DH could look at it as each of our sons home could be his home base. Long shot but have 4 years to work this out. This week going to pick up our new 2014 Silverado 3500 HD diesel 4x4 crew cab. He says rather be safe than sorry for size of 5th wheel we will purchase in a few years. That tells me he is leaning my way!!!! :)
