About MoonShadow_1911
- Biography:
- My wife and I have always been "outdoorsie type people. I've been backpacking, camping, fly fishing, hunting, shooting, most of my life, along with rodeo, and horses. She's been into hiking and camping, then, after we met, backpacking. Our last backpacking trip, a few years ago, convinced us to get a camper. We first looked into a pop-up, and eventually settled on a hybrid. She retired a couple of years ago and I FINALLY convinced her to go full-time! I'm in IT and have the option of working remote full time, so, off we go, once my daughter graduates from high school and goes off to either the Air Force Academy, or out of state college. After a long and fact filled search, we have decided on a Grand Design. Looking forward to meeting a lot of you as we wheel through the USA and Canada. Once we are through full-timing, (if we ever are), we hope to settle in the Hill Country of Texas.
