Today is Saturday, June 2, 2007. My wife, Lois, and I both officially retired three days ago, May 31. For months (and perhaps years) we have looked forward to taking an extended trip across the U.S. when we retire. A couple of months ago, after much shopping and research, we bought a new 28 ft. Jayco Escapade class C motorhome. We've been on a few shake down cruises, and so far so good. We'll spend the next couple of weeks making final arrangements and preparing to leave our house and pets in the hands of our house sitter. June 15 is the tentative D-day, and we plan on taking five or six days to reach Taos, NM., our first destination.
On most of our previous vacations, our aim has been to see and experience as much as we can in a limited period of time. Since we now have more time, we plan on travelling at a much more liesurely pace. As much as practicable, we plan to stay on the "blue highways" and off the interstates. The first photo shows or motorhome on a weekend trip to Saluda, NC, the day that we picked it up from the dealer.
