The Search is ON


Oh the driving we will do. Went to Philadelphia yesterday as this was near two RV's that we were scheduled to look at.
Had a nice time in the city checking out the historic sites. I was amazed to be in locations where our forefathers stood. George Washington, Ben Franklin seriously it was really cool to know and learn how much history is in the state of PA. Rode the Ducks which took us around the city in an open bus, very entertaining and educational and then the thing turns into a boat and went into the DE river. It was a blast. The tour guide named get- this Betsy Ross (yes-her real name) was amazing and truly born to do that job.
We checked out the liberty bell too. Gabe thought it looked fake. Let freedom ring.
So it was off to Horsham (yeah your saying it right) to see the first RV. It was big with a nice slide but only had sleeping capacity for 4. Really needed a cleaning too.
Then we ventured to Boyertown to look at a 30' Four Winds Hurricane. This thing was nice and only used by one older women. No slide so a bit tight inside but we think this one could work. The inside was clean and had nice upholstery. The price is really descent too at 22,000 it might work for our budget.
We did a lot of car time yesterday. I hope NOT to be in the vehicle that long for awhile. At least not the cramped up minivan. The kids did great with only 300 "are we there yets?"
Time will tell and with God's help we will find the perfect RV for this loco family of 5.

You will find the perfect one. Even if it is not, it will still get you where you need to go. It is the journey that matters not how you get there or what you traveling in. Love you and I am so excited for you guys to start this adventure. I look forward to hearing so many great stories along the way. It is going to be such a bitter sweet month to come. The anticipation of things to come and the sorrow of the thing left behind. I will miss you all so much, but I am so proud of you for doing such a brave and glorious thing. Love you!!!!!
