I am a woman of a certain age. I am living now in Athens, AL. Who knows how long I will be here as I am buying a Ram Promaster with the idea of making it into an RV. My friends are giving me all kinds of help/ideas some of which seem ideal. I will be traveling in the spring when the weather breaks and we have the RV part installed. First stop will most likely be Monroe, WI as that is where a group of grand children live.

Welcome from the Midwest.
I had to look up a Ram Promaster - looks cool. It'll be interesting to follow along with your plans to turn it into an RV. We love pictures! :D

Laughing here about the "certain age" ...

What would you like us to call you?

I spent my first couple years wintering in Alabama, and was living in WI when I bought my rv. Kind of backwards from what you are doing and where you are going. Glad to have you with us.

You may call me Rebecca. There is a long story how I came by the name Grand Maverick. I will be sure to take pics but will have to learn how to put them on the forum. Also, you can follow along with my blog at grandmaverick.net/ The actual age is 81 and counting Rebecca

Rebecca,

I read parts of your blog and your talent for writing and "saying it like it is" makes for some very interesting reading. Great job!
It makes me want to set up a blog of my own but I have this mindset that mine would be so mundane. :|

I, for one, will be watching to see how you set up your new RV and where your first travels take you. I'm interested to hear more about your crafts and craft shows as well.

Welcome...
Judy

Hi Rebecca - welcome to the group. Cool looking van - since it's more aerodynamic in the front - you might get great gas mileage.

ooo - goody - another blog yea!!! :D love the blogs
