Let's Review

We've been on the road for a little over 3 months now.  We went hiking in Washington Park (http://www.cityofanacortes.org/Parks/WaPark/wa_park.htm)  the other day and had a talk about our new lifestyle.   

We both agreed that, so far, this lifestyle is more fun and working out better than we imagined.  At this point we wouldn't go back to having a house.  Honestly, we don't miss a thing about living in a house and we haven't thought about any of the stuff we sold and gave away.  Not one thing.  All of this really surprises us.  We didn't think it would be this easy. 

Pilot, our dog,  is another story.  He did not like it.  Not anything.  Except that he was with his people.  He is slowly coming around.  He is getting use to us pushing a button and bringing the slides and then taking off down the road.  Not thrilled, but not scared anymore.  He loves to walk around the campground and meet all the people.  He doesn't mind meeting the dogs either, but prefers people.  It's nice that many campgrounds have dog areas and some have actual fenced in dog parks.  He gets to run off leash every now and then and he's good with that. 

Our budget seems to be working out.  We don't get to buy whatever we want, but we have enough money to live and to travel.  The trade off of working and having more money, while living in a house including all that comes with that, good and bad,  just does not compare with living in our coach and traveling around the country even though we can't buy everything we might want. 

This lifestyle is not for everyone.  For us, we love it.  We're glad we took the leap.
