Just curious...are Greenville, SC and Cordele, GA warm enough to spend some of the winter there? If so, I might try that area instead of LA (lower Alabama).

The Greenville area can get pretty cold and every once in a while we would get a snow day out of school. But like most of the South it didn't get really really cold and stay that way for very long.

Wow! that's great Tim, that sounds like a truck I would love to have. A new truck like that with a great warranty is going to remove a lot of stress from your full-time lifestyle. With a new truck and a new trailer you have probably removed 90% of the problems that some RVers experience while full timing. It's a couple of big things that you won't have to worry about for a long long time.

Revisiting childhood places is both fun and scary. What do you mean they built two houses in the weed lot next door? Where are the neighbor kids supposed to play jungle?

Yeah I know what you mean. I think the old saying that covers that is "You can't go home again".

I tend to buy vehicles and then drive them forever, so it doesn't bother me to buy new. My current 16 year old SUV still runs great and I love it - that's actually been one of my biggest hangups in this whole process. I'm really going to miss it. However, once in the new truck, that will take some of the sting out of selling the SUV.

It's great to have people around that can help you which is one of the reasons that I recommend to people that going to Quartzsite Arizona in the winter is a good place to install your own solar panels. There are places to buy parts that you will need and there are people around that can help you with the project. Not to mention that the weather is usually perfect for working outdoors.

That's a good point about the furniture that I hadn't thought about. I did think down the road that I would change some stuff around, but that's another good reason to have the RV here and take a few trips in it this summer and fall. Not only will I have help with moving the furniture, but it'll be easier for me to either sell or donate.

You've got the right idea when you say that you want to visit certain areas in the summer because you love them, but don't want to be there in the winter.
