New TT owner and full timer
Hello all!
My wife and I just recently bought a 2017 Jayflight 28BHBE and have been full timing in it for about 2 weeks now and are loving it. We're hoping to travel full time this coming fall  I am looking forward to reading and learning from the forum!
Dean,

Congrats on the 28BHBE! We enjoy ours and can't wait for our first trip out this year in less than 4 weeks; hopefully all the snow will be gone by then.

Welcome Dean! Good luck with the new rig and full timing experience. I too have decided to make the move to full timing. I'm in an RV park for a bit and then time to hit the boondocking highway....

Congrats on the new trailer and the full timing. We are in the process of doing the same thing. Truck and trailer on order and house on the market. Happy Camping.

Welcome to The Forum, congratulations on the new TT and the move to full-timing! I bought my Eagle TT back in January 2014 and have been full-timing in it since July 2014. It's a GREAT lifestyle! One word of advise, though: keep a close eye on your wallet!!  Hauling your rig all over the country and moving from campground to campground eats up gas & $$$ real fast! I've found hosting at state park campgrounds in Michigan has helped a lot with that. Free campsite w/electric (some w/full hook-ups) for a month at a time, with a minimal commitment of time. Just enough to keep me from getting bored. What I like best, though, is getting out of the cold & snowy Michigan winters. I spend them in the much warmer Texas Hill Country: a lot less expensive than Florida; and a lot fewer bugs, no snakes or gators. Then again, a lot of folks really like Florida. Many others prefer other Gulf coast areas, Arizona, New Mexico, Southern California, or Nevada.
Let us know where your plans will take you.
Best of luck, and Happy Camping!
