Seems I may have to expand on this post to cover the background thoughts.<br /><br />Mark, Yes. Ouray -- and the studio apartment -- would be a perfect place to hang out for the summer and early fall. I will include that in the options list that gets reordered daily.<br /><br />Sunny, Compared to my home where I lived in Denver and my life style, living on the road full time is definitely cheaper for me. Don't forget the answer to that often posed question: How much does it cost to RV full time. The answer is: How much money do you have. You will make do.<br /><br />Jil, If you don't get to Saguaro before I leave, looks like you will have to consider a trip to Tucson for a get together.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13311083597294672388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565671130289537623.post-62599760562490713092012-10-04T09:27:41.678-06:002012-10-04T09:27:41.678-06:00Great post...something we think about constantly.....Great post...something we think about constantly...but for now we are staying on the road...we haven't really found "the place" yet to settle back down...<br /><br />sorry we will miss you in Benson...we probably won't get back there until sometime in November...JilAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565671130289537623.post-12882587199350958902012-10-04T07:56:05.836-06:002012-10-04T07:56:05.836-06:00Being on the road is probably not nessessarily che...Being on the road is probably not nessessarily cheaper, but i am sure it is funner :D I have a class C and I'm sticking to it! I also have a small country home which at times weighs on me. I'd really like to see if i can live in my RV full-time, which I will have a taste of this winter.

I really appreciated your honesty in this p...Lloyd,<br />I really appreciated your honesty in this post. <br />I sometimes write about how the "price" one pays for being a full time RV'er... and I'm not just talking about the money part. However, that's one of most disconcerting of worries as there is a finite amount of the green stuff, and we don't have a crystal ball to tell us how long we will be around.<br /><br />Although I went into a part timer RV mode kicking and screaming, It does, as you often say, add some "balance" to our lives. I think the key is finding THE, or A FEW, places that feel like home... a place(s) where, as Boonie said, you are within walking distance to coffee shops and a library, conversation, interaction... on your schedule and to the amount needed. "Home" is where there are familiar faces and people that wonder about what you are doing, where you have been, where you are going next... and they care about you on maybe a deeper level.<br /><br />For it to work, tho, "Home" has to be the right choice, the right spot... and that means it will be seasonal because it's either too hot in the summer, or too cold in the winter to stay over. But that's ok, you if you downsize to a class C or B and you can pick up and go on a whim. <br /><br />Lovely Ouray fills the need for a "hearth," the need to land somewhere and spread out... to take a breather... to indulge the familiar, which builds anticipation for the next journey... at least for us, anyway. that's the stage I'm in right now... chomping at the bit to ride out of town in our new used rig.<br /><br />Summer's in Ouray are hard to beat... and you know we have a nice studio apartment available for you to rent anytime you want... a month, two... four... then you can head back out. <br />Nice post,<br />Box Canyon Mark<br /><br />Box Canyon Blog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07032055509766739436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4565671130289537623.post-43383136071966588032012-10-04T06:38:18.552-06:002012-10-04T06:38:18.552-06:00Are you sure that being on the road saves money?
...Are you sure that being on the road saves money?<br /><br />The apartment doesn't have to be in downtown Denver, Manhattan, or San Francisco. Furthermore, you could get by on a Toyota Corolla instead of a brontosaurus sized pickup truck. Or walk to the library or coffee shop.<br /><br />Don't quite a few people at Escapee parks keep a small Class C in storage there and go out for month long trips now and then?kaBLOOnie Boonsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05845667016536890886noreply@blogger.com
