Finally ... I'm a Newbie!

After 18 or so years of dreaming about it in the "someday we're gonna" sort of way ... my wife and I finally made the leap. Yesterday, we closed on our new (to us) motor coach - a gently used 2012 Holiday Rambler Endeavor 43' DFT. We're roughly 18 months out from retirement - and are hoping to use the time between now and then making the coach home and downsizing the rest of our lives. For the moment, the biggest challenge is going to be not going crazy waiting for the weather to break and the ice and snow to melt so we can de-winterize the coach and take our first short trip!

About the same timing as us. We're probably going to spend next winter on the road. Not selling the S&B until we've seen a few other places. Who knows? We may like Arizona!!!
