Cross Country Adventures
Some friends of mine recently did something very brave and adventurous. They sold their big house, both of their cars, and most of their belongings. They both quit their jobs. Then, they bought a Winnebago and set off for a minimum two-year adventure all across the United States.
They are not much older than I am, so they are nowhere near ready to retire. They just decided to enjoy their time together and the county we live in while they are still young and healthy and full of energy. What faith it took, I imagine, to quit their jobs, pull up roots, and just take off driving.
I admire them both for doing it and I am thoroughly engrossed in every update I receive from them detailing their latest stops, the things they have seen, and the people they have met. I suppose I am living vicariously through them right now.
They’ve both learned an awful lot about the upkeep of their new home, how to find the Winnebago Parts they need to keep things running smooth, and pretty much the best R.V. sites all over the nation. 
For anyone who thinks living in a Winnebago would feel restrictive, let me tell you right now how wrong you are. I’ve been on board with my friends on several occasions and I’m amazed at how well the space is used. Inside feels like a little apartment on wheels. They even have satellite internet hooked up so they can stay connected with people no matter where they are.
