Sorry to hear that. It is a day we all have to face. We came into RVing from boating intending to give it a few years & go back to the overnight boating. 10 years later we have faced it, we will not be returning to overnight boating like we used to. Should have sold the boat when we had the chance. The RV will go too someday. We do have loads of pictures to remember the great years by.

Mine DW says that every week. She's ready to go at the drop of a hat.

sorry to hear that. I know it's a difficult decision. We started the RV life in 2003, have been full timing for 8 years. I also have had health issues this year and am so glad we hit the road when we did. We don't know what the future holds but it's been a great ride! Please keep in touch. Newcomers value your knowledge.

Don't be a stranger to the forum!

'Your' knowledge will be of great help to others. :C

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

I'm not too far behind you.

I'm thinking I might need to get my place in line also. Never know from one year to the next when the hammer is going to fall.

jwakeman, Sorry to hear that you must quit, but that time will come for all of us at sometime. Be thankful that you had the experience, as many will never know the pleasures(and sometimes aggrivations) of the rv lifestyle.May you enjoy those remaining years, remembering all the good times. Drop in from time to time and live through us vicariously!
Best Wishes to you!, memtb
