I purchased a used minivan last week. It needs tires and a few other things but I'm ready to take a trip. Every time I get in it I want to just keep driving.. heading south or west. I've checked the prices on blowup mattresses, portable potty, tent, and an enclosure that allows you to sleep with the back door open and keeps the bugs out.
This is no RV but will allow me to travel some without making a commitment to full timing until I'm ready. On June 21st I head to Cumberland Falls for our family reunion. I have a cabin there so will not be sleeping in my minivan. After that I will take a few one night trips to see how well I do sleeping in the minivan. It is very humid here during the summer but if I stay at campgrounds with elec. hookups I will be able to run a fan. I don't want to spend a lot of money on camping supplies until I decide how much I will use it. Since I only have 2 days off, the camping will be pretty close to home. If the weather is too bad I may end up waiting for fall to do much camping.
It is so exciting to have a vehicle for travel. I have to force myself to come into work everyday and I know I will have to force myself to come back home after Cumberland Falls.
I'll try to post more often now that I will be doing something beside whining about making decisions.
Have a great day.
