A member marked 54 years of marriage and RVing, recalling a first Starcraft Vacationer towable tent trailer, early camping in a Utah state park, and decades of moving through tents, sailboats, truck campers, motorhomes, travel trailers, and possibly a future fifth wheel. Other RVers responded with congratulations and shared similar long timelines, including marriages of 47 to 60 years, decades of tent camping, converted vans, truck camping, Class A ownership, fulltiming, and long family camping histories.
Several members reflected that RVing has remained rewarding into older age, with one saying the preparation and travel still feel rejuvenating. The topic also drifted into aging, driver license renewals, and whether physical ability, vision, and driving tests should determine when someone stops driving, with members generally accepting safety checks while noting that age alone does not always predict driving ability. Bottom line: the discussion was largely a shared celebration of long marriages, long RV histories, and continuing to camp as long as health and safety allow.
