Gypsy Newbie to RVing

Postby crimsonrose » Sun Jun 09, 2013 6:59 pm

Purchased a 2004 Road Trek, Popular 190 August 2012, set out full time end of January and very grateful that I'm really living my dream. Looking to connect with other full timers in N. CA. and as I travel the highways and biways of America.

LOL - Mr. Biscotti! I love it!
And what do you call him, for short?

Anyway, welcome to a wonderful Forum full of experienced and knowledgeable women (myself NOT included).
We hope you post often and keep us in the loop on your (and Mr. Biscotti's) adventures!!

Hi Gretchen, welcome to a wonderful group of women RVers. If you have questions, they have answers or at least opinions. :D
I hope to have Betsy on the road by mid-July and then we're heading for northern California. Hope to meet you on the road.

Welcome Gretchen. While I don't full time, I do live in the San Francisco Bay Area and would enjoy meeting up with you in the area or perhaps somewhere out there on the road. Getting together with other women RVers makes our trips so enjoyable.

Thanks, Gretchen - and I, too, love Mr. Biscotti's name.

I'm full time, btw, and travel through just about everywhere at some point (was in parts of CA earlier this spring, for example) so lots of us make it just about everywhere if you give us time.

But if you'll be on the west coast in Sept - please make sure you check out the gtg (get together) room for one that's happening in southern OR. I'll be there on my way back south from AK.

Welcome Gretchen! :D I'm not a full-timer, but I'm a fellow Trekker! Just got my 2001 170 last summer, did a cross-country trip this past winter! If you ever make it to NY, look me up--or find me on the road, as I'll be doing another west coast loop again come Nov (FL-AZ-CA)...Wishing you safe travels! 8-)

Welcome Gretchen,

Glad to see another Western RV'er. I live in Southern Oregon on the CA/OR border. Let me know if you are up my way and we can have a small GTG. Ya know lunch or coffee or dinner, or ?????
Check out our GTG at a state park over on the coast in September. Should be a good one.

Thank you one and all for such a loving and gracious welcome to us. We are staying in Santa Rosa CA boondocking until fall then travel to AZ and NM.
Helping out a dear friend, her parents died 30 hrs. apart 6 weeks ago and there is lots to keep us busy!! Would someone explain how to upload pics?
