Wink Just retired

Hi, we are a married couple from PA, just retired and are headed to Texas to spend our winter. We have a 2003 motorhome Pace Arrow. We have made a few trips with our RV, but not for more than 2 weeks. Thank you for the warm welcome.

Congratulations on your retirement. You may find you are busier than before, but it will be mostly things you enjoy doing.

I highly recommend retirement. Where are you headed in Texas? Try to make a Texas Boomers rally while here.

Retired March 03/2000. Had the MH headed south two days later and didn't come back till the snow had melted.

It really is a shock not to have to answer to an alarm clock after so many years, but you'll get used to it.

Have fun!

Being retired now you need to keep track of time differently than what you have done the past. Here is a clock that I use to manage my time. Enjoy your trip to Texas,
