Life sure does get in the way sometimes! Your title, Just Venting, I was expecting the usual rant about 'nothing' :) but this time I was surprised. You have a right to vent!! I know about cancelled plans. I am trying to get out into Texas and length of drive time and how long I want to stay---it just all isn't adding up to get the trip I want to enjoy. disappointing.
small trips is what I am doing right now. 8 days max is all I can get scheduled around hubbys work, but those 8 days are well worth it to me.
an RV as yard art sucks. I know. I look at my 5ver out there and think--I have to go somewhere!
hang in there and keep planning constantly. maybe one of the trips will pan out and away you go!
