The 3 Ring Binder Is Out!!

Ask any of my family members and they cringe when Mom brings out the 3 ring binder to get organized.  Lord you should have seen the 4" binder I had for Shannon and Shawns wedding!!  But, let me tell you I organized the entire thing, made everything but the food, it was held 30+ miles away and I didn't forget 1 thing!!!  Nada, so nuff said!!

This three ring binder has, a place for trailers that fit our length, weight, and price.  Not that we will buying any of these, but it gives us age, manufacturers, and lots of possibilities down the road.  We know we want something 28-30ft.  We would love to be able to pull it with the Van we have right now!  We also know both of these things will change in the first 2 years as we figure out what we want.

The binder also has budgets, proposed, and as time goes by real!  Randy is a stalker on a few full time RV forums.  He has been pulling and stock-piling information from those who do this full time.  One great thing is there are a lot of people who keep excellent books on their travels.  So it gives us good information and helped us figure that we could  $$$ do this!!

There is a place for a bucket list of places we want to see and visit.  I just added one today, Joes Crab Shack in Destin, FL.  After seeing my friend Ellen's blog about it, YUMMY, lets check this puppy out when we are in the vicinity!!  I am sure we will be adding tons more as time goes on!

The last area in the binder is for Camping Sites, National Forest, where to get the Old Geezer Pass to save on camping, etc.   Also tons of links to information on those subjects. 

I am pretty sure more indexes will be added to it and eventually it will become our travel Bible but that's how I roll!!  Why oh why can't I be this organized about certain stuff and then have piles of crap of other things?  The mystery still alludes me!  Once we are in a 30 ft. trailer 6mths of the year, I bet I will have a better handle on all the crap!!

  1. Knowledge is power and Randy gleaning what he can from full time RV folks will prove to be invaluable.
    Organization is key. Floundering around wastes time and $$$.

    1. When you have to add Dog, food, insurance, shots, etc. they get their own line for the budget!! Let alone we could probably drop 2-4' of trailer and keep our sanity! But, thems the choices and puppy kisses will keep me a happy little camper!
