Hi, my name is Megan, and I'm so glad to have found this site!

My DH and I have been RVing for the last ten years or so, and in the last few weeks fulfilled a long-held dream by buying a fifth wheel. The fifth wheel is a whole new animal and I expect we'll have a pretty steep learning curve getting used to it (it's a lot bigger than the travel trailer we're used to). The ultimate plan is to full time in it. I'm hoping to learn a lot from you guys, and hopefully will be able to share some things as well (if only what NOT to do)! Looking forward to some good conversations.

-Megan.

Hi and Welcome, Megan. I promise, you'll learn lots of what not to do on this forum :) We all share our mistakes as well as the things we find and learn. Can't wait to have your additions - about rving and everything else.

Glad to have you with us.

Welcome aboard. Look forward to meeting you down the road and to share around the campfires....real and/or imagined. :) The benefit of sharing around the imaginary campfire is that the beers and wine shared there have no calories..... :)

Adding one more welcome, Megan! Sounds like you've got a lot of your own experience already. And this group will certainly do what they can to help: either sharing good ideas or being really honest about lessons learned. :D :oops: We like stories, pictures, and will ask you a lot of questions--we ARE a nosey bunch. :o :roll: :o But this is just the best place there is for friendship and conversation. Welcome!
