Retired Life – The Boomer RV’er

Doug in RVYes, I have joined the Boomer RV crowd and have enjoyed some recent outings where I met a number of really terrific folks who are often 10-20 years older than I am.  That makes them 71 to 81 years old, and they are a vibrant, enthusiastic life-loving group of RV owners and campers.   I recently discovered a pretty good blog site for the RV crowd as well.  It’s the RV.Net (http://blog.rv.net) and they feature a number of authors who specialize in particular aspects of RV camping and the phenomenon known as “full-timing.”    These are folks who write about cooking, RV maintenance, power trains and road emergencies.   

Since my wife and I recently purchased a used motor home we also received invitations to join the Good Sam Club.  There are some pretty good benefits here too and the web site is great.  I have found that I particularly enjoy the Good Sam Club magazine, Highways.  

Anyway, this weekend was spent at a very close-by RV park that also features a Square Dance center, so the place was really “hopping.” Sort of.  I think we are really enjoying our early experiences with the motor home and perhaps some day we will be ready to go “full-time” but for now, weekenders keep us occupied and still close enough to home that we can take care of our pets’ medications without having to entrust them to someone else. 

I’m beginning to Enjoy the Retired Life.
