What I like most about full-timing!

There's a thread already started using "camping", thought "full-timing" would also be of interest to some.
We've "camped" for all our lives growing up & the last 46+ years of our married life. Once retired the "camping" became "living" full-time, they are 2 different lifestyles.
Most go "camping" to get away from it all preferably in some remote spot to rest & relax for the weekend or their vacation. Is can also be done full-timing, but to it didn't feel the same.
We would find a remote spot at first & enjoyed it, then it was less often, were more comfortable with more amenities such water & sewer, then we started looking for more of the resort type places with pools & some activities & then stayed at a 55+ park for the winter & were hooked. After the 1st experience of a snowbird winter with lots of folks our age, lots of activities, lots of happy hours, NO MORE boondocking. Our schedule then became finding a nice winter location with summer travels to cooler places & traveling to see grandkids.
Full-timing is not for everyone, but the DW & I did it for just over 10 years & wouldn't change a second if it. Traveled coast to coast border to border, actually crossed the northern one a couple times, seen & done a lot of things across this great country, met a lot of great folks some of which are now very close friends & made lots of memories.
We've actually settled down in a 55+RV park in a small modular home & started our next new adventure. We may, or may not, get another small RV & travel in the summer or just go bum off our kids.
So that's our story, & sticking to it, so let's here from some other fulltimers.
