BellaOnline Forums Travel and Culture RV Might be moving into trailer

You're welcome Susan.

Thanks Yvonnie, I love that silly pic!

Jilly, what kind of work do you have to do to make it livable? That seems like a nice size to me. Is it towable?

Could you consider moving to CA to be nearer your parents and your CA friends (like me!)?

Lori, I am definitely going to be in CA for some time! I look forward to seeing you.

Erin, it's hooked up to my jeep and ready to go. I put in a bed and am basically going to be camping inside. Really looking forward to actually getting on the road.

Keep us posted Jilly! Where in CA are you headed? One good thing about road trips, you get some of your best ideas on them. So, you've got some good brainstorming time ahead of you.

Yay Jilly!

You're my hero.

BTW, did you figure out your internet options yet?

My parents live in San Diego, so i will end up there sooner or later.

I don't have a plan and that is just the way i like it. my plan is to get up each day and decide where and when I feel like driving.

Thanks, Yvonnie!

I am pretty much packed but been so emotionally drained from this week that I'm having trouble getting it finished.

What I need to do is print out a temporary registration and then take the trailer (Logan) out this weekend. At that point I can drive out towards Cottonwood, Sedona or Flagstaff, getting a permanent registration on Monday. I might plan a shakedown cruise around the area just to see if I have everything set up properly.

I have someone to watch my cats and check my mail for as long as I need. I'll miss the little one, but it would be complicated to take any of them (the cats) along for this trip.

What I want to do is get to higher and cooler elevations, like in Flagstaff.

That's as far as i have things set in my mind. Besides doing a lot of reading and hiking and writing. And more reading.

Erin, i've never considered writing a memoir. I do plan to make a lot of frugal books/homesteading workbooks and the like.

I am very interested in 'happiness studies' right now, and have a huge shelf of related books packed away to read while traveling.

A memoir sounds like a fun project, but there really isn't a plot to relate. And no characters or climax to the story. I don't see it being much of a tale.

My plan at this time is to get Serenity out to Yuma and park on my land there. And then stay at my parent's place in San Diego for awhile in a tent. And I can easily go back and forth to Yuma to stay at my own place there.

I have people to help me move the RV down there. It will be a hassle, but once done I will feel a lot better, safer and more in control of my life.

Jilly -

That sounds like a lovely plan. That way you can visit your parents when you want and also have your own place to retreat to when you want.

It's good to have options!
