Ed & Marilyn travel blog
Welcome to our website! After years of morning conversation over coffee, countless visits to RV dealers, many happy weekends of travel and camping in smaller RV's and three backpacking trips in the Grand Canyon, we decided to become full-time RVers.
I retired from a long career in Aviation with more than 20 years as Chief Pilot for a Corporate Flight Department and nearly 8 years as an Instructor and Flight Examiner for a new type of Jet aircraft with Flight Safety, Intl.
We have a Doubletree Mobile Suites 36TK3 and a Ford F350 Diesel DRW with the Tow Boss package to tow the RV. We sold our home in Wichita KS and became full timers at the end of September, 2006.
We invite you, our friends and relatives, as well as anyone else who might be interested, to follow along as we make this long time dream come true, to wander along the roads of this great country, seeking the good weather which allows us to be outdoors enjoying God's wonders.
We will share this journey with all of you, the good and the bad. So, join us as we wander along living our dream
