New Full Timers in Pinnacle

Hey Gang
We’ve been posting since getting the Pinnacle in December and going through some shakedown cruises. We moved in FT this last Sunday but just came back from the closing where we sold the Sticks and Bricks, so the cord is cut!

Living locally while I (Angus) work until fall. Then we set off to FLA for winter and change domicile. After that....

So far so good with us, 4 Chihuahuas and 4 cats. We’ll keep you posted. Thanks for all the help here!

Hope to see you on the road

Joan and Angus

Hey Angus! You sound really PUMPED!

Please keep us posted. There's a number of us here that are FT wannabes.

Congrats. Made the same transition about 2 years ago and haven’t missed a step.

Most people think we’re crazy until they see our rig and our lifestyle then they’re envious. The first words out of their mouth is “I could live in this with no problem”.

We just moved into our 2016 Pinnacle last month as full timers.
Quite a few major issues to solve, but loving the freedom!

Hope you all enjoy!

Well congratulations to you and the others that chimed in as well!

Personally, I'm envious. The wife and I will be there one day too!

All the best - and send some pictures!
