Is it the People or the the Places?

When we first started RVing in the mid 70's, we were drawn to the lifestyle by the places we could see. Forty years and 45 states later, it has become more and more about the people we meet and not the places we see. It could be that we've seen so many places or the fact that there are so many people we have never met. Or it could be a maturing perspective on life. Why do you RV.

    It is both for us, but we have only been full time for a couple of years. We have met some really good friends and we have visited some great places all over this great country of ours.

    The warmth. It's too cold in Northern Michigan. As we travel we do find more and more places that we like and the people have been great too.

    For me it's the people. Over the last eight years, I've met people that keep in contact every couple of weeks. Some of our best friends now are people we have met from all over this great United States.

    I've been RVing for 20 years and travel to see and experience places, where I have, as a consequence, met a lot of congenial people. We who are drawn to the same places also share many other things in common.
