> Hello folks, my name is Kelly and I am a guy living in northwest Arkansas. I retired back in 2004 to do some travelling and medical missions. About 3 years ago, I decided I wanted to do what alot of you folks have done and that is, buy a reasonably priced van and fix it up to travel/camp/live in it, or buy a RV or travel trailer to pull behind my older Lincoln Towncar. I have German Boxer Dogs and plan to travel with 2 of them. 3 years ago I bought a 15+ passenger 1986 Model B250 Dodge RAM Van from a Church as it had all the maintenance records with it and had only 53,000 miles on it. I Took out the seats, put 5 new heavy duty tires on it along with a new windshield, tuneup , belts, filters etc. It has been 3 years and due to my health, unfortunately I haven't driven it a mile. I drove it from one side of my yard to the other. My plans are to travel South & West during Dec-Jan-Feb-March and travel North during August-September. I like to grow a large

I have gained weight from immobility, so now I am looking around to find a good used larger motorhome or I might buy a med. size travel trailer that will fit within my limited budget as I am not getting any younger and want to start travelling this winter. I currently sell stuff on ebay that I pick up at flea markets, garage sales etc.,and plan to continue this on the road to supplement my finances. I love fishing and eating fish, so I hope to find alot of good fishing holes to camp, cook & enjoy the outdoors with like minded folks like you all. When I was in High School and college, I used to travel with some friends that were long haul truckers and we loved to stay at rest areas or truck stops and smoke chickens, brisket etc. in the evening and set around and make new friends. I have continued to enjoy smoking good beef, pork &

I also like museums, especially history/old west etc. I hope to gain alot of ideas & knowledge from those of you currently living the Dream as well as those like me that are budgeting to buy what we want and need
