For 40 years I had to be working or let someone know where I could be reached. Just enjoy being away, going anywhere I want, not telling anyone. Sometimes just read a book and look out at pretty RV park.

Used to have an old Aunt who said, "Why would anyone want to travel around in a trailer, what do you do, anyway?" I told her, "Not a d**m thing, Mary, the same as if I was home." I was always the lazy worthless member of the family. Ha!

Just last week when I informed our youngest where I would be camping this weekend, he said "what's there to do there?". I replied, "nothing, that's the point".

1. Keeps the family close and creates great memories.
2. Love to compose music it the quite wilderness
3. Time to reflect on life
4. Better sex in the MH than at home
5. Love the idea having all the conveniences of home and then being able to step out into nature. Best of both worlds
6. Love to meet great people
7. Love a nice Australian Shiraz by a cozy fire.
8. Love to wake up today in the mountains, tomorrow in the desert and the next day at the ocean.
9. Love the sites and smells
10. Love to fly fishing. Although fish do not fear me rather they laugh at me. I love it anyway.

Because DH & I couldn't agree on whether we wanted a cabin in the mountains or a house at the beach. No more arguing! Now we have an abode in the mountains, by the lake, in the desert, by the seashore, in the swamp, on the tundra, in the forest--anywhere our Expy takes us. And we're making the kind of memories with our kids that they'll be proud to pass on to theirs.


"Those who dwell...among the beauties and mysteries of the earth are never alone or weary of life."--Rachel Carson, environmentalist, 1956
