I just started a month ago. The learning curve has been steep. But it is 80 degrees here in Phoenix and too cold to morning bowhunt for my son back in NE Missouri.

I have know three couples that did the "sell the house and go off in a great adventure in a motorhome" thing and it did not work for any of them. In one case even though they had been happily married for over 40 years when put into a situation where they were in constant close contact it began to erode their marriage. Another couple found out that living day in and day out with minimal items that they had taken for granted was not to their liking. The third couple endured it for about 5 years but then it reached the point where he was no longer capable of safely driving the motorhome and she could not drive it so they had to give it up, this could become a real issue for lots of folks when they reach the point of needing medical care.
But the part that would not work for me is selling a house, which normally appreciates in value, and putting the money into a rolling money pit (a motorhome) something that not only depreciates but requires constant expensive maintenance. At that point what happens is they often end up selling the motorhome fo pennies on the dollar and then either buy another house or go into a nursing home - both options which will cost them more money.

Gift cards are the only thing that they would want from you, when you don't know what they really want.
Maybe an actual picture of yourselves in a magnetic frame that they can stick on the fridge.

Not much to add and extra and I’m glad it works for folks but one thing that shocked me in my recent travels was the nightly cost of full-hookup RV slots in KOA and other RV campgrounds. About like staying in a local motel.

I guarantee I can find motels cheaper than most rv hookups lol.
You might not want to stay in them. But I did when I was young and dumb.
Wife and I considered a trailer for our couple long weekends a year. And decided we were further ahead to go the hotel route or cabin rental. We still occasionally drop a tent of I can guarantee good weather.
I'd love to take off in an RV for an extended period of time. -Jake
