Good-bye

It is with sadness that I bid the forum, good-bye. It has been 6 year since I sold my last Foretravel and today my daughter sold my last RV, the Winnebago Era that I gave her last year.

I have become at age 92, too limited to attend the chores of hooking up, etc. My RVing days are over. I have enjoyed lingering on the forum and following the adventures of you all.

My former traveling partner in his 50 foot DP (some other brand from Miami, OK) is still on the road and regales me with his itinerary and photos of the sights and activities.

Thank each of you for the entertainment and knowledge of this forum. What a wonderful experience!

BON VOYAGE!
Horace

Alas, we will all be coming to the end of our travels, as no one escapes!  We all wish you the best life has to offer and like others have stated, please stick around and share the wonderful knowledge you have gained over all those wonderful years!

We had to give up traveling, too.  Age and gravity takes its toll and there is no use fighting it. What I can't seem to give up is this Forum!  I look almost every day and still pipe up from time to time.  Please do the same, Horace!  All the best to you both.

   As my mom would tell you, just keep moving.  Just turned. 97 and quite proud that she uses no cane or walker to get around.  And until this year usually stood up when visiting and rarely sat.

  Point is, hopefully you have years of putting around left.  And please keep sharing.
