When we started traveling, we had 3........now we have 9. That's why we decided it was time to settle down and quit "fulltiming". But it was fun while it lasted.
I think it would be great fun to live on the road for a while. It would also be nice to come home, too! :D I'd like to do that, actually, but I don't know that DH would. RIght now isn't an option, anyway, though.
I've seen ppl pull, haul, or drag (if they aren't mobile anymore) even the VERY SMALL RV (most call them campers around here) somewhere to live in...permanently.
After Katrina in Louisiana, that's what a lot of the locals lived in. I don't know that they still are...maybe.
We went to a travel show last year, and they had a lot of really nice RV's there. Some of them had "pull outs" (can't think of what that's called, where they pull out to make the room bigger) on both sides. That made the room HUGE! Most of those worked electronically. Some even had upstairs in them! Fireplaces...They were really nice.
