Marti, LOVE your RV and fur-babies. Welcome to the forum & RVing life!
Sounds like you have RV'd in the past. I'm sorry for your loss. I began RVing solo after my DH was killed 3 1/2 years ago. I have been all at once excited, terrified, petrified and motivated. I love the freedom, enjoy living alone (with my 2 pups) AND miss DH terribly.
My DH left me a nice state pension and I was able to retire in my early 50s. I'm just finding my groove, and I know you will, too. Please feel free to PM me if you'd like.
