So it begins! The next few weeks we will be testing "mini retirement."
Our objective is to see how living, working, and exploring-
roaming the road in a motor home- really impacts our lives. We will apply the principles
of computer science; "Hardware" that's Dennis,
and "Software" that's me, Deborah; to determine the outcome.
Come join us for our experiment!

Day 5- Where have we been?


We cant believe it is already day 5. Where have we been, you ask? Stay tune till August 14 and we will have show and tell. We had a very exciting day 4 at Fall Creek Falls. We will post pictures tomorrow which will be Saturday of our fun times on Thursday. Let us just say that we were surprised ourselves that we were able to have so much fun in one day and live to tell about the adventure.
Today we spent most of our day traveling to our new destination. Creekwood Farms in North Carolina. We stopped in Seymour TN and met our niece Olivia and her two wonderful children Gage & Gretchen. We had our first meal out to eat at Ruby Tuesday with them and the food was great but the time spent with them was the best part. Olivia's husband Lance is an amazingly inspiring singer and song writer and is working on a new album. She gave us a copy of his latest release that has been remastered. All we can say is “AMAZING”.....Check out his web site www.lancethomas.net.
Dennis agreed I should attempt to drive the RV today, so I did. All the way through the mountains and right to our new destination. I even backed into our new space right on the river. It is true! Dennis says I am a natural at driving this large RV. He asked if I was ready for the 40 footer! I laughed and said I think I would like to stick to 34-38 feet. Will see !
Setting up and breaking down the utilities are very simple in this particular RV. It has taken us about 15 minutes from start to finish. So for purposes of our experiment the setup gets a 10 on our scale of 1-10. Everything inside is in its place so we only need to secure very few items before we drive off.
Our new site is not as private as at Fall Creek Falls but the River is amazing. Daniel our son would love to be fly fishing in this river. We plan on casting our rod in their tomorrow. For now it is late and we finally (rather Hardware) has our technical difficulties worked out so in the am we can get our blog postings uploaded with our really cool pictures. Later!.........Software.
