Don & Joy's TravelsUntil 2002 there was a huge portion of the US that neither of us had seen. In April of 2002 we were able to contemplate semi-retirement with a lot of travel time available, so we rented a motorhome for a couple of weeks to see how we liked traveling that way. We found it much more enjoyable than car/motel travel. After a short period of time looking for a used diesel pusher we settled on a 1998 Safari Sahara. We placed a Datastorm internet antenna on the roof, which allowed Don to attend to the computer maintaining that is the "semi" part of our retirement. After a little under a year we knew that, while we liked the Safari, there were things we would rather have arranged differently. This lead to the purchase of a 2003 Safari Zanzibar, which was our home on the road for four years. In January, 2007, we moved back in time to a 1990 Blue Bird Wanderlodge WB40. That was sold in January, 2013, and in March we purchased a 2004 Blue Bird M380. Our last trip in the M380 was in 2018, and we felt it was time to give up large motorhome travel. The M380 was sold in July of 2019, but after 2 years without travel it was time to take the plunge again, this time with a smaller RV. In September of 2020 we purchased a 25 foot 2015 Winnebago View Profile. Alas, we just weren't using it, so sold it in May, 2022.Below you will find pages detailing our motorhome travel adventures. |
