What was once a dream is becoming a reality



John and I were hiking a small portion of this beautiful trail called The Narrows @ Zion National Park in Utah. We met two couples that had hiked the entire trail. and spent a short time talking to them. They mentioned that they were "full timers". We had not heard of that term and asked them a few questions. At that time they had been traveling together for two years. They were so enjoying this lifestyle.

Oprah would call this an "AHA" moment. We were so intrigued by what they told us. We almost instantly thought that this would be a great way for us to retire. That was in September 2001. Last weekend we held our first moving/garage sale. We have researched this lifestyle, attended seminars, read books and blogs, talked to many full timers and now it is really becoming a reality.

Our target date for leaving Indiana and starting this big adventure is April 15, 2011. We have established this blog to help us record the journey.
