DW and I have yet to pull the trigger on an RV. I am all in since we retired a few years ago. My bride not so much.
I have agreed to her wishes for now....renting a beautiful home in Florida for the month of march. We will likely be gone from our home in north Michigan for 6-7 weeks including travel time and visiting family on the way. My questions are.....
Batteries for my toys. I normally bring them in the basement and rotate a trickle charger for our 5+ months of winter. I have multiple chargers. Should I place one on each while I'm gone or charge them all up and wait until I get home. I plan on setting thermostat at 55 while we are gone. We are on a well and have a boiler with baseboard heat. I will shut off the water pump.
I have a buddy to plow my driveway.
We are fairly remote but have neighbors that can and will keep an eye out. Crime is not an issue up here yet!
Mail and newspaper will be stopped. We are pay online for bills.
This is our first time away for any length of time. Those that have been there, what am I missing?
Thanks in advance. I follow this forum daily hoping my bride will come around. I have absorbed so much from you all. I am ready now, but....
Peace, Jeff
