Me and my wife have had RVs for years and always dreamed of fulltimimg around this beautiful country. But when the time came that we were able to we could not bring ourselves to do it.
Last year we gave it a trial run for three months and it about killed us because we missed our grand children soooo much. We had no other issues and loved the traveling but missing the little buggers was the only reason we don't think we could do it.
We tried our best to stay in touch by phone and Skype but the lack of a good hug was heartbreaking. Anyone else feel this same way and if you did go ahead and became fulltimers how on earth did you handle the pain of being away?
My goodness, some posters are making it sound like your love and participation in your family is a bad thing :) The grandkids are not holding you hostage, it is merely your wish to remain around your family more than leaving for very long chunks of time.
there is no right or wrong on this....you do as you guys want to do!
you thought full time was your dream and found out it really was not. Not a thing wrong with that. Don't push full time on yourself if you really don't want it, travel as you see fit. 3 weeks and missing home, come on back :) or any way you guys want to fill in your travel life.
RV and full time is not mandatory :) :) Sure some want it very bad and go for it and enjoy, many others do not full time and fit in their RV travel life in with how they want to schedule their days.
in the end, do whatever you want!!
