This is my first post on this blog. We are still in the "dreaming" stage. Looking at RVs now to get an idea of what will work best for us in the beginning, while we are getting our bearings.
My husband hasn't really spent any large amounts of time in RVs. I have, growing up where we went everywhere in an RV... I thought hotels were a novelty, and didn't take a plane ride until I was 13. :D But I was also more traveled than most of my friends. To this date, I believe there are only 5 states in the continental US that I haven't been to. My plan is to make it to those 5 and the other 43, plus at least Alaska and Canada... perhaps Mexico, too. I haven't figured out how I could get an RV to Hawaii at a reasonable price... :P But I may one day figure that out, too.
We had a pop-up for a short amount of time, so we have a little of the basics down. Now on to a self-contained vehicle that will allow us to learn all the fun stuff about holding tanks and whatnot. :D
Our budget will be small, so we hope to find a bumper pull (would LOVE the toy hauler, but looks like that's out of our budget). We're also looking at motorhomes, but the 411 from someone who has full-timed in an RV is that we don't want a motorhome in our price range... :D So unless we happen upon something we just can't pass up (doubtful, but the possibility is always there), we'll be looking at a bumper pull. :D
We are a large blended family, and a dream of traveling in an RV, homeschooling our children and spending time with all of our family, both East Coast and Central US. This blog is intended to chronicle our steps to that dream.
