A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Good morning everyone!

Coffee is on, there is also orange juice and chocolate milk here, so help yourself to your favorite morning beverage.

Today is Barbie's first day at the new job. I can't wait to hear how things went for her. And lot of others here are preparing for the FL GTG, which will be coming up in just a couple weeks. The weather should be beautiful then. I'm thinking of different things to prepare for the meals, especially things that can be easily put together in the crockpot. We never lack for lots of good food at these GTG's.

We're starting off in the 50's this morning in Ocala and will get into the high 60's later with a chance of morning showers. Tomorrow we'll get into 70's and on Wednesday, we'll reach 80! I hope everyone has a good day!

Morning, all....Well, I see the sun is trying to brighten up the sky this AM... So I should be perkier real soon.... So glad that the rain is done for a few days...

Thanks for starting our day here, Irmi.....the coffee tastes great.....read where your musical talents were greatly appreciated yesterday morning....what a wonderful gift to share with Liz and the folks at church....

We're going to visit the "Doodles", Guinness & Rosco, and their Mom & Dad today.....(Joyce & Dane)....They've put their 5er in storage and have bought a house near Savannah with a big back yard for a great play date for Spinner.....

Here's a pic of the 3 dogs a couple of years ago..


We haven't seen them for over a year, as they were on the road touring the country....and we never were able to meet up cause they had a 6 month head start on us...
It will be great to see then again...

Okay, better get my butt in gear....Have a great day, all................

62,000 miles on Hope plus 2000 on my previous rv for the maiden voyage and I still get a lump in my belly everytime I pull out of the driveway. It goes away a couple of miles down the road, I get this huge smile on my face and all is right with my world again.

And yes, I put all but 1200 of those miles on Miss Hope. All but a few towing a jeep.

Chris, that's one of my favorite posters!!! One of these days I'm gonna print out a picture of it and put it on the wall or have it put on a pajama top.

I love the Coffee Fairy!

good morning ladies,
trying to get my brain back in work mode, and I really need that coffee fairy, thank you for that
ya'll have a great day, be warm and be safe

I used to get those knots as well with the 5er...that's one reason I got the camper to begin with. Decided for sightseeing I didn't need to be hauling all that. I know the camper size makes some shake their heads, but I love it.

Love the Coffee Fairy!!

That danged coffee fairy made me spew my coffee all over here! I have wanted too print that out for a long time now, so I bit the bullet and did it after I saw it..... Will have it for the GTG.

Please think of me when you share the coffee fairy. Since I can't be there in person, you know I'll be there in spirit

I'm a full-timer, and I'll get knots every time after I've been sitting (such as workamping, seasons, etc). That first time again after a few months, knots form. Like Sharon, my knots disappear in minutes and instead I'm happy as can be. I love being on the road. Doesn't stop the knots though. I'm actually going through that a bit now with the trip for the Q gtg. My rig is a mess, set up for sitting still, so much to do to travel. (I know the inside will take no more than an hour or two, but feels like it'll be so much more. And I'm not tearing down the outside for this ... table and chairs, etc will stay here .... but the feelings are still with me.) However, as soon as I pull out the entrance of this park to head down the road, it all melts away and I'm in my proper place.

And, no, I don't get these nerves when on the road and stopping only a day or two or three, etc... only when stopping for long periods.

Good morning all! Sun in Alabama! Don't know how long its supposed to last. Going out to do some banking and think I am going to best Buy and get a kindle. Wasn.t going to but have about decided I will. Am glad the "old timers" still get the knots in the stomach. Im not new to rving but for the last few years to the driving. Don't think i will ever say I actually enjoy the driving but do so enjoy the getting away. It is not as bad once I get moving. It is for strictly economic reasons I am holding on this mh instead of getting something smaller. Anita, I would love a truck camper! We had one years ago, even with kids! There is a stray dog hanging around and it seems to have picked my yard. And the neighbors are feeding it! It looks friendly but jumper Pepper when i was taking him out to the car yesterday. Guess Ill ride around and see if anyone is out on the next couple blocks over and ask if it belongs over there. Ya'll have a FUN and a SAFE day. Wendy
