We both have gone down hill some.
Oh we are both X Yankees with Southern blood.
Pulling into an RV PK. Sitting outside sipping a brew and letting the wife go on her own Is fine with me. Tried that one time. IL ST PK Ranger did not like my brew. Cost me $70.00 fine. Think his name was Barney Fife.
Right now getting work done around the house so we can hit the road. But would still love to sell the MH. Upside down deal.
Ya'll enjoy the road this year.
This reply and one of your early posts hits the nail on the head.
As they say: "It's the economy (money). Stupid"
A great percentage of retirees 0ver the last 10 to 15 years have been burned by the Great Recession. If they haven't got everything paid for by this point, it's hard to have confidence in the future with a brunch of bickering politicians who haven't learned how to work together yet.
Even having gotten through this financially in great shape for us and our kids, we still hear many of our friends we have camped with (over 40 years) talking about the need to baby-sit grand-children during the work-week and help them out financially because of the current situation.
This and a very bad year for "cabin Fever" can be a downer for many.
