For all those who expressed an interest, I've started this blog to chronicle our travels.  Mark and I dreamed of retiring and traveling around the U.S. and on April 10th we will start living the dream.  We are excited to be able to share our experiences with you and I will endeavor to take a plethora of pictures and update the blog frequently.

Currently we are in preparation mode and the very first thing we felt must be done was to name the motorhome.  Until now we've been remiss in naming our coach and now she's going to be with us everyday and we knew this needed our immediate attention.  Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to introduce to you "Yolo."  Yolo is a 2006 Coachmen Mirada.   She is a 32 foot long, gas powered coach with one slide and is equipped such that we will be traveling in style.  I know you're wondering why the name Yolo.  Well, Yolo stands for "you only live once" and that's the theme for our adventure so we thought it apropos that this should be her name.  Yolo went in for service earlier in the week and then we treated her to a spa day where she was washed and waxed.  Now she's home and being fitted for a bike rack and loaded for the journey.

Check out Yolo all sparkling clean and shiny.  Below, our Chief Operations Office Mark installs a new bike rack.
