You might get something out of this site if:

You think an awesome experience is something everyone else always has
You think adventure is looking at the ladies dainties in the Sears Catalog :)
You've got more cousins than Carters' got little pills
You find people are always telling you that you're definitely the most interesting person they've ever met
You don't like high stress jobs. Like when your husband tells you that you've got to the mow the lawn TWICE this year.

If the idea of that kind of life gets you down
Just wait until you discover what living life on the road is really like.

 

"Always follow own life plan, otherwise GPS lead you to dead end!"
--The Great Kiva

There are lots of buttons and links here, some might go somewhere, most probably don't. Even I, smart as I am :) ain't got'em all figured out yet. But like some feller said, "It ain't the destination, it's how many times you got to repair the brakes during the journey, otherwise you might not be able to stop when you get to where you didn't know you were going."

Don't worry about what this website costs. You get the RV Dreamers bug you'll learn right quick you'll need to keep every penny you got. :) But if your a real smart feller and come up with a way of gettin' people to send you money so you can live it up, keep it to yourself. Cause if someone else does it, it might chip away at your good fortune.

Oh, one last thing, if you just got to support something, Support Our Troops, they're keeping our country safe so we can live this life.

This website is dedicated to my grandpap who always said, "Boy, you got a knack for doing the dumbest things." And how could I forget my city feller cousin (the one whose name I never learned) and his cute wife :):), who gave Nilda and me the RV Dreamers bug when they told us about the Great Kiva on the day they got lost.

A Word From Nilda

Several nights past, I.M. was sitting at the computer staring at his blog, but from his posture I could tell he was troubled. Everyone who knows I.M., whether as a relative or through his writing, knows that he is a person who looks at the bright side of things to the point of seeing that which is unseen by everyone else. When I asked him what was wrong, while at the same time rubbing his shoulders and back to help him relax, he just pointed to the screen.

This was so uncharacteristic of I.M. that I knew something was deeply troubling him. I knew I.M. would talk about what it was when he wanted to, and after a few minutes he turned around, relating that he was feeling bad because he knew I wanted to write an occasional blog entry for RV-Dreamers:):):), but he gets so involved in his own writing that he sometimes forgets about what my dreams are. Those few words, so packed with emotion and feeling, are one of the things that makes I.M. so special in ways that people who don’t really know him can never understand.

While I will keep those special parts of I.M. to myself, and if that is being selfish, so be it, the result of our conversation was that I.M. has proposed that I write an occasional blog post. Even though I.M. had done this once before I would never remind him of that or that he promptly forgot about it after I had written a post, and so I told him I would be thrilled to add a post on occasion if he would like. I knew the answer would be yes, which his eyes affirmed before he said the words, and so I hope you will not mind if from time to time something a little different appears as a post on these pages.

I have several ideas as to what type of subjects I would like to cover, though I sincerely hope that it will be more in the vein of sharing with you, and talking with you than merely words on a computer screen. To that end, I.M. has proposed that I write a “weekly column” and has already asked me to write my first column. I will leave it at this for now, and hope to visit with you again next week.
