Howdy, from CheerioGirl!

Postby CheerioGirl » Fri Aug 14, 2009 4:07 pm

A special thanks to Retiredhappy for showing me 'the way' to you all!
I am single, 55, no children, not even a pet, as he passed away about six months ago. A trip today to the Humane Society cat department reminded me that the grieving has not ended. I have been a full-time RV'er for about eight years. Had not a clue when I became interested in the lifestyle, read, researched, talked to my elder RV'ers, talked some more, got a CDL and finally took the plunge. I had no idea the freedom would be so addictive and so much a part of my real character. Not of retirement age, I work as I go along, that encreases my number of stories to tell around the campfire in the evenings. I hope to learn a lot from you gals, and you all have my admiration!!!!

Welcome to the group CheerioGirl. You definitely started RVing early in life and glad to hear how much you enjoy it. PLEASE don't listen to a word said or any story that Karen might have told about us :lol: even if they are true. :roll: You probably got your wineglass quicker than any other member. I'm sure you realize if you've perused our Forum posts that most subjects are NOT sacred, so looking forward to hearing your stories and seeing pics. carold

Marlene, glad to see you here. I will bring your flamingo wineglass when I visit you in Deming. I'm sure you'll fit right in here and really enjoy these slightly crazy ladies.

Welcome Marlene, you've found a great group of gals. When I saw that name "CherrioGirl" listed in the new member section I thought, what a cute name, I sure hope that person posts, :lol: Can't wait to find out more about you and your travels!

Welcome Cheerio!

I'm so glad you have joined us. the more the merrier around the campfire. If you haven't checked out the Campfire,... get on over there after the sun goes down,... maybe you will stumble onto that box of wine I hid ages ago. :lol:

Seriously,... this is a great group, you can turn to any of us for any reason at any time. Welcome aboard!

Thank you all for the down home greeting - I feel very welcomed and ready to share in the forums, once I figure out HOW it works :D Hope to have special lessons from Retiredhappy when she comes to visit me in Deming. It feels so good to know there are other single women out there - brave, courageous and a bit on the gypsy side. Takes a special kind of woman (in my humble opinion) to navigate this lifestyle! Break out the wine!

Welcome CheerioGirl/Marlene,

So glad to have you with us. Great into - and we're about the same age - although I'm a tad older. Not too many younger than us, YET, but I expect that age group will keep joining also. I'm always so glad to see fellow women rver's. And like you, I have a special affinity for those who do this solo.
