I bet you are excited to see your new rig! That would be so fun! I always get excited about moving into a new apartment and getting everything all set up and decorated the way I want (I move a lot!). Can't wait to see pics of it! Are you going to name it? I always named my boats. I named my paddle boat (Easy Goer) after a race horse! :lol: The name of my speed boat was "The Girl Next Door". (There is a story behind that one!)

Yes, I am excited to see my new "home sweet motor home"! I'm like you in that I've moved a lot and like setting up and decorating the new place to feel like home. It's so funny that you asked about naming it :lol: I almost said something about that in my last post! Yes, I'm planning to name it. I have a lot of thinking to do about that. Thinking of maybe starting a new thread to get suggestions. I'm looking forward to hearing the stories behind the names of your boats. You had a speed boat? Now I know you're cool 8-)

Thanks, Vickie! I enjoyed reading that thread! My GPS is named Tom Tom Tim. He could be why my marriage failed, with his sexy British accent...lol. My husband was actually jealous of Tim! Do you think it could be the way I talk to him? It will be fun naming my new "home sweet motor home"! That is what I've been calling this one, so will have to come up with something different. I noticed nobody uses a guy's name. May do that, so when I get mad at it, it will feel good to yell at "him"...LOL!

I've traveled with a man for the LAST time,.... no men's names here.

Rockwood has her name as of today..... Amelia. In honor of Amelia Earhart. Let's just hope she doesn't disappear! :o

I like it Cedar! Amelia's first plane was nicknamed, The Canary, but unless you painted your Rockwood yellow, that may not fit :P I will let everyone know when I decide. I too, am looking forward to going it solo :D
