My first blog entry

Hello cyber peoples. This is my first blog attempt and the reason I have decided to start a blog is because of some friends of mine Chris & Jim Guld. Two people who are living their lives to the max. They are full time RV’ers, long time Geeks and have a blog site called Geeks on tour. Check them out at Geeksontour.blogspot.com. I learned how to set up this blog and get Gmail and a whole bunch of other stuff from their site. They are also one of the reasons I have decided to join the ranks of “FULL TIME RV’er”. They are having too much fun and I am jealous. So I am selling my business and my home and hitting the road. There in lies the current problem, today’s market is not exactly the best time to be selling anything, but I am undaunted. I will sell and I will purchase the perfect RV for me, then, watch out USA.
Currently my dream RV is the 2008 All American Sport 281FB. A Toy Hauler by Forest River Mfg. I already have the perfect tow vehicle. A 2006 Chevy 3500 one ton utility truck. Now when I say utility truck I am not talking something like a Ford Exploder or even a Su-bourbon, No. I’m talking “man truck” with tool bins all round and ladder racks and macho stuff like that. I can put my Harley in the back of the trailer (It has its own separate private garage to sleep in). Then, when I get to where I’m going I can earn a few extra bucks fixing things. My motto is “If it’s mechanical and I can’t fix it then it ain’t broke. My current business is automotive lift repair, which I should be able to do on the road as well as other odd jobs. I see no reason not to be able to make at least enough to pay expenses just working a couple days a week. Any way that’s my plan and I’m sticking to it.
I am excited about doing this. I’m single and 61, I got nothing holding me back. I do not want to wait until I don’t have the physical ability to see the things I have always wanted to. I will worry about what’s next when I get tired of Full Timeing, if i ever do.
Well time to go. See you round the next bend.
