#RVLIFE

Okay. BREATHE. This is real life and this just happened.

My heart is literally in my throat. Most hours of most days, these days. It was only last July that God told us to "sell everything you have and follow me". 

This isn't the first time we've done this. It's just the first time we've done it with the intention of having zero jobs and living in an RV full time. We had a house with an insanely low interest rate, a pool, a 401k, ridiculously good health insurance, no car payments, some cash in the bank, and no credit card debt. Not to say we were well off by any means, but we were definitely in a better position than most.

But God...

You never really know when the call will come but one thing is for sure... if your heart is in peace and you are walking in love you won't miss it. And you'll be ready. But that doesn't mean it won't put a lump in your throat and make you question your sanity.

I had a dream back in April. I was with my girlfriend in what appeared to be a game show. There was a reader board that would flip and ding with the survey answer. Think Steve Harvey and Family Fued. My girlfriend and I watched as the board flipped with a loud ding. "GLAMPER". At the sound of the ding, my entire body felt a giant pulse and I woke up. I fell right back to sleep and it happened again. "GLAMPER", followed by another electric shock. I woke up again. I fell right back to sleep, again.

And then it happened a third time. Now the Lord had my attention.

The next day my close friend and mentor, who is gifted in dream interpretation, called me. I was on her heart. And she was definitely on mine. She said God was giving me a jolt. Three times meant it was confirmed. A jolt to notify me that the time was near when He would send us on the mission we had prayed about for 20-something years.

Noted.

A few months later came instruction directly from God's word to sell everything and follow Him. Throughout the entire summer and into fall, friends and family confirmed the call through scripture and dreams. To say it was clear would be an understatement.

We had actually wanted a travel trailer to renovate for quite some time and had looked intently for a couple of years. This won't be our first trailer renovation. You can see the first one here. We sold our first glamper after a pretty rough trip. We realized we needed a bigger rig and a much better equipped truck to pull with.

And so, while on vacation in Williamsburg, VA just before Christmas I had a random thought. What if I could find what we needed in the area? After all, we kept coming up short in Arizona. Sure enough, about 4 hours away in North Carolina we found the truck we wanted and a trailer with an extremely rare floorplan.

What is so rare about this floorplan is that it can function as a two bedroom. See the room in the back with the giant picture window? That was intended to be a living room and is pre-wired with surround sound. We will use it for video production and an office, unless one or both of our girls want to come along. My biggest concern was having two adult daughters, one of which is on her own, the other who is almost on her own. They are only 19 and 20 and the thought of them not having a place to land if they need to bounce back really made my heart hurt. So this rig has a master suite and a secondary flex room at the opposite ends of the trailer.

Adult privacy. ;)

The back room has two slides, making it quite large! It will have our big screen TV, couch, and blog/vlog production equipment. New carpet is a MUST and walls will get a fresh coat of white paint.

The kitchen and dining area, along with a sitting area are also very spacious!

The master suite is at the front of the rig. It includes space for a washer and dryer, a vanity and shower, and a separate toilet room.

SOOOOOO!!! It begins!!! We start ripping out carpet shortly. And then??? We will make Texas our first stop. More on that shortly... ;)
