Wishing you Happy Holidays!

Kiki waiting patiently for Santa to fill her stocking with treats!

We’re back in Florida for the first time in a couple years for the holiday season – having spent the past two in the desert Southwest far from family.

This year, we’re soaking up quality time with both of our parents. It’s a true blessing.

We still have lots of year end stuff to catch the blog up on, it’ll just have to wait for when we find some spare time to sit down and share.

For now, we wish you and yours the merriment of the season, warmth of loved ones and creation of fond memories.

    Merry Christmas to you guys. We continue to enjoy reading about your many travels, and learning from all your articles as we prepare to take delivery of our first RV in June. Hope to meet you “out there” someday.

    Merry Christmas Cherie and Chris! And my orange boys send love to Kiki. My parents always wanted to do the inland waterways. They never did, but I feel their presence in my urge to wander. Soon. Thanks for everything you share, and happy boat shopping in the new year!!

    Merry Christmas Cherie and Chris. Interesting, quality blogs/vloger’s like you two have helped me so much in getting my mind wrapped around all the changes I am making to get ready to FT. Flying in for the Tampa show to roll around in RV’s all week to pick up the scent,…….although I will be buying only a used 2013 or 2014 tops. Hope you guys are blessed with the boat deal that is the perfect fit,…….and falls in your laps! Till your next live cast,…..Sue & Mark.

    happy merry holidays to you, and good luck on findind that dream boat. I would look for one in the fresh water areas,they are in better condition salt water is bad on boats .

      Unfortunately, fresh water this time of year generally means boats are on the hard in storage, or they’d be fairly land locked and need risky shipping to get them to where we need them. We do have our eyes open to them, but rare to find in our time line.

    Hello….Happy Holidays to you ! Just came across your site on YouTube and really enjoyed you 10 things that suck about RV life…I have a friend who has done this for years and he is trying to convince me that I should join him on the road. Your advise is very valuable and I have thoroughly enjoyed your blog. Keep up the good work. Thanks, Nancy

      So glad you found us.. welcome to our little corner of the web. There are indeed things that ‘suck’ about the lifestyle, but you could say the same about almost any living style too.
