While I am far from a new RV'er, I am always on the look-out for new and better forums, as I am a true "RV internet junkie." In some ways I am a bit of a strange duck, as I always use my real name on any forum and that same signature on all of them. For that reason, I suspect that at least some will recognize me from other forums.
As to myself, I have now been traveling with my best friend and the love of my life for 43 years (almost) and we have been doing so in an RV since 1974. We tented for five years before that, and did some tenting until our boys completed the Boy Scouts. We are now retired and have been fulltimers for 5 1/2 years. We travel with our All-American Terrier, Muffie. We consider ourselves to be "Professional Volunteers" as we spend about 7 or 8 months of each year as "live on" volunteers for some public or non-profit organization in return for our site. We have a web site that tells our story which we try and keep updated to what we are doing and where as we travel. We use a tripod mounted dish from Starband for our link to the world, since we spend a great deal of time in pretty remote locations. As we travel, we locate places to volunteer where we can learn new things, have new experiences and most of all, meet new firends! My partner Pam, sews, knits, crochets, does hand crafts, and just about any skill of that type. I do some work with wood, shoot photos, build a web site, occasionally write for RV magazines, and watch the wildlife.
We can't imagine any better way to live and we are truly living our dream! And we hope that you are the next people that we will have the privilege to meet!
