Here we are in front of our "new to us" RV...a 2003 Georgetown 33-footer! As mentioned before, we both missed the life on the road that we experienced in 2005-2007. We couldn't resist doing a little RV shopping both online and on-the-lot. This rig appeared on craigslist in Colorado Springs, and we checked it out several times...you would not believe the complexity of these units...imagine buying BOTH a used truck AND a used house!! Engine, drivetrain, tires, kitchen, bath, bedroom, AV systems, water/wastewater systems, A/C, exterior, interior, etc. etc. There are a lot of excellent resources online to help, but ultimately, it's a leap of faith. And we came to feel comfortable with the seller...so time will tell. I felt like the King of the Road as I drove away...it handles like a dream, but I'm going to have to get used to both being right up front and the overall length.
So, the rig is in storage now, but we plan to do a couple of "shake-down" cruises this spring...maybe to Arizona to visit Katie's mom and to Utah to visit Katie's son and his family. After we leave this apartment, we'll set up the fifth-wheel trailer that we bought last year in an RV park in Manitou Springs and sell it...then move into the motorhome "permanently."
