Only if Steve doesn't leave enough money lying around for them hahahaha.

Steve,

Postcards tell a story, so send the kids a postcard from somewhere and they will understand what's happening. My old man has been O/S for 3 months (does this every couple of years) and I have got about 4 or 5 emails and that's it, no idea where he is until I get the email to say he's still alive and is ....... wherever. OLD saying...No news is good news.

Enjoy whatever comes your way.
Trevor.

SKI !

I love it ! I got where I am on my own. No help and I think it is the best way.

Don't leave the kids anything except knowledge and advice.

Congrats Steve and Denny

Enjoy your trip around the block. Its a great place.

Suggest you flog the vehicles you have and buy an OKA, Unimog or Canter for go-anywhere in comfort.

We spent 5 years on the wallaby and enjoyed every minute of it....that was before we became grey nomads......lol

Cheers

That'll be the life. I do envy you. Hope the house sells well to give you lots of happy travels. We see quite a few slogans on caravans like 'runaway parents'.
