Hi everyone.
we began our adventure last year, after purchasing an older diesel pusher, we spent four months, pulling carpet, replacing fixtures, electrical spagetti, replacing curtains, going over the drivetrain. and changing the color of interior and stripping. we headed out from Florida on June 1st, 2010 and have been traveling ever since. are currently in Portland Oregon and preparing to move toward Washington state and across to Montana. we had some adventures, some mishaps, and a whole lot of memories.

We started FTing at the beginning of Jan. 2011. Started in So Cal (where the kids/grandkids live) made it over to Arizona and have been up to Washington this summer. Now back in Oregon at a great resort called 7 feathers. This first year is a learning curve...mostly learning to RELAX for us and to heal from running the rat race maze so fast that we didn't even stop to see the roses, much less smell them
Washington is beautiful...I Loved Anacortes Have a wonderful journey.
