Running From or To?

Use the words "great" and "escape" in a sentence and it can raise an important question: Are you running away from something or to something?

When we think of our Great RV Escape, we'll be the first to admit there is a little bit we're running away from: overwork, overwhelm, overcrowding and overcomplicated. And, there are numerous ways to remedy those challenges. Fulltiming is but one.

Much more powerful for us is what we're moving to: simplicity, adventure, travel, quality time for ourselves and each other, opportunity to meet new people, reconnecting with friends and family across the country, spending time outdoors, hiking and biking, exploring our amazing country and continent, and doing it while we're young enough to enjoy it all. We also are eager to explore a lifestyle that we find interesting and intriguing. In many ways it seems that we're made for it and vice versa.

OK. We confess. Actually, we're obsessed!

Between the two of us, we've had many "romantic notions" over the years that were fun to think about for awhile. Only a few really stuck. Like cooked spaghetti on the wall, this fulltiming thing has moved from "romantic notion" into seriously sticky territory.

And, oh how we both love spaghetti!
