That's pretty much what we did. We put everything is storage and headed out on what we thought would be a six month trip to see friends and relatives and look for a place cheaper and warmer than NH to build or buy a house. The house sold a month after we left.
After about a year of wandering all over the west and the south we realized we had yet to start looking - we were having too much fun. So we decided to keep on full timing. That was eleven years ago and we just now became snowbirds.
Be careful it might happen to you too.
