    I've recently have been feeling the same way. I'm ready to hit the road and find a community as well. Crazy how when you get older, you start to notice how foolish this society really is. I'd join you on your quest!

    My boyfriend and I plan on doing the same thing in Illinois in a few years. We're slowly doing as much as we can in the house we're in, just have to wait to be able to sell/rent it out. The only thing we're considering keeping is internet to keep in touch with family and such. Trying to actually make a thing of it too. Good luck to you! If any one is interested near Illinois, get a hold of me.

    Make sure you know what you're doing. I think with something like this, it's pretty easy to be naive about what you're getting yourself into and what would be expected of you.

    Best Wishes to the travellers!
    We're scoping places for the next rancho del hippo in NM right now, probably over at Silver City.
    Guess I will follow this thread and update too. We have been herb and mushroo growers. That'll be part of it too I'm sure.

    With age comes wisdom and sometimes money, sadly the body and spirit tend to lag. I did the travel thing in my 20's and plan to do it again this year. 30 year career coming to an end. I've spent 3 years fixing up my cool van and cant wait to get out there. Thinking about April or prolly May timeframe. Tell me, can 20 somethings and 50 somethings travel together and enjoy it all? It's not your fathers mindset... :)
