Originally from NY, I've lived in Northern Virginia for the last 21 years. Both my sons are in college (one graduates this Spring). I've taken to the road for a couple of years to try and find a new place to live.
I'm looking for a place with great bicycle riding, friendly people and beautiful scenery. A really good public library and some good restaurants too
My vehicle is a Ford Transit 150. It has a 130" wheelbase and the medium height roof, which means I can stand up in it.
With some help from a friend's husband, I've built a raised bed from angle iron and some plywood, and by spending a bunch of money, had a maxxair fan installed in the roof.
I'm currently in Florida, though about to head off to Hawaii for 2 weeks. Once I return I'm headed west and then north.
I had spent August riding my bicycle around Oregon with WomanTours and want to go back to see some of the places I liked in winter.
I plan to drive down the California coast as well.
I need to be back in VA for graduation mid-May, and then after a 10 week trip to Europe and the UK, I'll be headed west again, along a northern route.
I really enjoy reading the posts on this forum, and hope to meet some of you along the way.
Lauren
