Also, in this high-energy, fast-paced, modern world, families are often spread out across the country and finding time to visit Grandma and Grandpa can be tough and many young families don’t have a home large enough to accommodate extended visitors. This way they can just pull up in the driveway and spend a week or two without disrupting anyone’s schedule! Some will even pack up the grandkids and take them along for a little summer time adventure! It’s a great way for retirees to connect with this young generation, and with today’s technologies, the kids won’t get bored. TV’s, DVD’s, and game systems can come along! This same technology makes it easy to keep in touch while living on the road. With email and cell phones, the kids will still be able to reach Mom and Dad whenever they wish.
Maybe moving around all the time isn’t your idea of a peaceful retirement. No worries! Another growing group of retired RV enthusiasts are the “Snow Birds” or “Sun Chasers”. These folks love be home in Idaho, Colorado, Minnesota, and other Northern states but say, “No thanks!” to snow, and sub-zero temperatures. So, just as the frost is ready to hit, they load up the motorhome and head south! Affording and maintaining a second home is a real difficulty. As Rvers, home just goes with them! Many will return to the same RV park or community every year and build relationships with others that share their lifestyle. Then, when it gets a little too warm, they head North again just in time to enjoy the blooms of spring.
Modern Technology has also made full time RV living a growing option for another group; the travelling businessman or woman. For decades, many Americans have spent a great percentage of their time in planes, trains, busses, rental cars and hotel rooms; making rare and brief stops at a place they call home, but never really feel “at home” anywhere. How much nicer must it be to take home with them wherever they go? This way they can even have a spouse or pet travelling with them. Meals don’t have to been eaten out every day and night and they aren’t living out of a suitcase.
In short, full time- or even part time- RV living may not be the right choice for all Americans, but for the growing numbers it does suit, life is grand!
