    As many of you know, we've been casually searching for an RV home base for a couple of years. That search was very low-key until about 8 months ago when we ramped it up and started trying to narrow down our search criteria.
    Initially, we really didn't know where or what we wanted. We just looked to see what was out there. Kind of the same way we approached RV shopping: Look at a bunch of options and learn what we didn't know we didn't know. 😊
    Now, to build or buy? We were open to both but when we started to ask about build times, we eliminated building. That was going to take way too long for us. So, we started looking at homes with land and no RV restrictions.
    The next big hurdle was to find one with accessibility for our ginormous RV! We found so many great options that had everything except that! Rural roads are tough when it comes to towing a 44' toy hauler! But, in one last-ditch effort, before we were leaving one area to search another, Tara found it! It had just come on the market less than an hour before she did. 24 hours later and we had a contract!
    Why?
    First off, let's get this out of the way: We are NOT going to stop RVing and making RV content on RUclips.
    Those of your who follow us know that Tara has been dealing with the fallout from her Lyme Disease since the day we started living in an RV full time. Our intent was to still see doctors and get treatments on the road. However, the logistics of this have proven to be difficult, and we've never stayed still long enough to give Tara some time and rest to improve her health. We knew we needed to find a home base where we can have access to doctors and take some time out from the RV. Not a LOT, as we still LOVE to travel, see new things, and share them on our channel.
    What About Our Content?
    When we started creating RV content, we had no idea it would turn into something we could do full-time. We absolutely LOVE creating videos about RV Life and we have no plans to stop! In fact, having a home base with an RV pad is going to allow us to be more deliberate about how we plan and create our how-to content.
    The logistics of installing a complete solar/inverter system while traveling while moving every 10-14 days is CRAZY! Now, for projects like that, we can time them to do the work at the cabin. Additionally, now that we have a place to store things, we expect to broaden the scope of our how-to videos to include things too difficult to take with us on the road. External generators, portable solar, etc. It's also going to allow us to explore (and share) a new part of RV Life (with a home base). 😀
    Overall, we feel this is going to be a GREAT move for us and our content going forward!

      I hear where we are now that there might be a rubbish hole or two long ago filled ! LoL ! We have a couple great deterrents, first is elevation and the second is the copperhead’s and timber rattlers!!!!!
      Ex Navy ( Not Seal ) but we will be ok ! They will do good with camera’s and a prox alarm or two , but the bears will wake you up from time to time ....

    Glad ya did it, seems a lot of folks after awhile want a “home base”. Can’t blame anyone. That’s why we have our ranch and plenty of land with hookups for the motorhome. We come and go as we please and it works perfectly. I watched your first video on the cabin but never would have recognized where it was. Glad someone pointed it out to ya. Best wishes to ya and will be watching when you put something out in the future.

As you said having a place of your own to go to when it's time to take care of medical needs is reassuring. Plus the way things went with the pandemic made many of us realize while we love traveling having a place to go is important!

We expanded our driveway another lane before we bought our Class A and I'm able to work on it whenever I want to, having full access to all my tools and equipment. So convenient.

We feel more secure but miss the full time life. It's great you can do both! I really got a lot out of your videos while we were full time. Thanks and enjoy your future.

    Definitely show the cabin stuff & making it RV Friendly. I have friend that has 4 RV sites with full hooks up on his property that I visit all yearly. It is way cool for them and for us too. We get to meet others that visit the location too and make new friends. So I think cabin content and while fixing up your home for RV Life is something many others want to know more about.
