My DH will never enjoy travel as much as I do. He lives to work. He has many friends and business acquaintances, while I have a few handfuls of dear friends.
....I have been dreaming of seeing America for years. Initially, DH didn't want to discuss something so far off. Then he was uncomfortable with the notion of taking off with the kids just starting college (um, 500 miles from home). Next was the whole conversation about how RV snowbirding really isn't a two-week, 4000 mile round trip to Florida. It's more like being gone for few months....I'm disappointed that I won't have someone to share my travels with.....
I could almost write this, except change DH to DW. She likes to travel she says... Cruise Ship, Hilton, Flying, but when it comes to the MH and campgrounds....not so much I think, she stays inside most of the time (too hot/cold/bugs/wind/etc..)
She is outgoing and talks to about anyone that will lesson, but not while camping. Also like what she does for work and the kids/grandkids, and her garden are the important parts. Can't leave any of them for more than a few days. When I told her I wanted to retire and travel a few months, she freaked. You want me to retire too and leave the house? Only for a couple of months... Oh I don't know about that who's going to take care of all the stuff and the garden and the grandkids and ....
So if "we" go it looks like it will be solo. I know only be gone a a week and then back home for her, right? That does not work for me... drive out 600+miles in a week, turn around and come back home, just to turn around and drive back again... sound counter productive. Anyway we will see....in 16 months, but right now my thoughts are: HAVE A NICE TRIP.
