Even if we fulltimed for a while, we were not considering the sale of our home. We have a great rental market with a large Air Force base near us that has officers and their families coming into the area for an eleven month long school. They are usually great and responsible renters. Our problem involved moving our 'stuff' to storage. We figured up tonight that our monthly cost for keeping our home is about $300.00 per month. Storage costs would be higher, I'm sure and not climatized. So we'll just keep our things here in our climatized "storage" and hit the road when the time comes. We won't have the renters income which would be considerable but then we won't have anyone damaging our home either.

Helen, you folks who know they can give up their stuff have the easiest road. People who are ready to changing their housing setup have it even easier. For us, the decision is complicated by the fact that we had just built our dream home (we don't have lofty dreams) and bought new furniture for it only five years ago. That's not long in the life of houses and furniture.
