We live on 3+ acres with full-size redwoods and an orchard on it with temperatures seldom below 35 degrees or above 90 degrees, with moderate humidity and rarely any snow to speak of. We have a large panoramic view of tree-covered canyons. A country grocery store is only 2 miles away. For all intents and purposes we are blessed with close to an ideal place to live -> that is still maintainable and healthy for us non-wealthy retired types with some mobility left in our old bones.
That being given, we LOVE our little RV and the adventures it gives us. We really like to explore in the many out-of-the-way places in this great country of ours. I had lived in our residence already 29 years before we even purchased are RV. We begin each new year with warm expectations of the new worlds that the RV will open up to us. We even just joined a special club this past summer because of new RV boondock camping spots it will open up to us.
The newness of a rural home will eventually wear off - or at least level out - and the RV wanderlust will creep back in. I'd recommend keeping the RV for a bit to make sure you don't eventually miss it!
