Hello From Texas

Come on in and say hello.

Hello From Texas

Postby Charliene » Sun Oct 20, 2013 4:38 pm

Hi Everyone,
Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Charliene. I grew up in New Orleans, so obviously have a huge Cajun influence in my life. I am now retired and single and drive a 30 ft. Coachman Concord Class C MH. I was married for 46 years. Before I retired, I had two rigs that my husband and I drove. One was a 32 foot tagalong and the other was a 40 ft. tagalong. I worked in the Petro-Chemical division and my home base was Houston. I've traveled the U.S. and Alaska (AlCan HWY) for 25 years with my husband; 18 months out and 18 months in.

I've had a few heart attacks and was in the hospital for 3 months soon after I bought my MH (this past year). I have been working on myself (health) for a year now and feel ready to hit the road again. I have to learn how to do all the things my husband did for me before (hook up, un-hook, fill tanks, clean tanks, dump, check systems, etc.). I don't have the hands-on experience, but I defiantly have the ability. Still building up my strength. I am NOT ready to give up yet! :!: .....which is the prime reason why I joined this forum. I want to meet and greet and get back out in the world and on the road again, in a safe environment.
Go Out and Pass A Good Time,
Charliene

Hi Charliene: I've been looking for your intro since our email conversation. I'm sure you'll find so much on the forum that will help you get out there on the road. Feel free to ask any questions. The ladies here are so knowledgeable and have all ranges of experience. So don't think any question is silly. Ask away!!! There seem to be a fair number of members in various areas of Texas, so maybe there will be a GTG (get together) in your future.
