    Already jealous. I'm older than my DH so it will be awhile before he retires, unless one of us wins the lottery, which we would probably have to split with quite a few other people. LOL!

    Congratulations on your retirement, especially your RV plans. It's something I had wanted to do, until my DH became disabled and I have my own health issues, so that's no longer an option. I wish you many happy times in your RV.

    I'm jealous. I would love to travel more, and we've talked about an RV, but hubby wants a little one, and I want one big enough to take grandkids. We are at a standstill!

    Congratulations on your coming retirement. You will love it! Wish I had known you were in the market for an RV. Would love for you to have considered the one we have. Enjoy your adventures.

    Congrats on your retirement and new RV. It's a fun lifestyle, we go on lots of trips. I quilt in the RV, I cut all my fabrics before we go. I put them in ziplock bags and label them. I take along a small cutting mat, travel iron and the rest of the supplies I need. I enjoy sewing outside in the fresh air!

    Two beds in an RV? Nice!
    I'd like to make at least one quillow for the RV sofa; great way to have a quilt handy without taking up storage space.

    I had one in 1992 and my sister and I drove all the way to Skagway, Alaska from Brooklyn, N.Y. Had a great time. Look into joining Good Sam Motor Club. Discounts and road service. I gave it to one of my sons-gas too high. Miss it.
    Enjoy, there are great campgrounds all over.

    I claimed all the space under the bench seat at the table. My little sewing machine fits in there with some plastic bins for supplies and fabric. Nothing compares to sewing hexagons, sitting under the Redwood tress, while the Blue Jays scold you.
