Possible, but doiubtful. Retirement is hard on the spouse that has stayed home while the other one works as the breadwinner. Couples can get cabin fever, especially in the confines of the RV. One couple I know takes separate vacations in their retirement. It's been working for 25 years. If the guy can handle it, he might want to leave in the fiver alone, and then if she wants to, she can visit every few weeks or what have you. Don't fix what ain't broke! :)
