LINDA AND STUART AT NO FIXED ADDRESS

Linda and Stuart retired from the BC Forest Service at the end of June 2009. They decided to sell their home in Kamloops, buy a new 38ft Bighorn 5th wheel and a Dodge diesel 3500 and go on the road with No Fixed Address.

LAST NIGHT - THEN ON THE ROAD

Sept 11/09
We spent the last “house” night in the trailer but used the indoor plumbing for showers and our "house kitchen" for breakfast. We cleaned the house and loaded the last items into the trailer. We were hooked up and on our way by 10 a.m.

We drove all the way to Barriere which is about a 50 minute drive north of Kamloops. It was a fairly easy drive which was good for the first one. We learned a couple of things about our first “loaded” road trip:
1. Don’t take all your tools from home
2. Don’t load everything in the front of the trailer
3. Don’t make purchases at Costco within 6 months before moving.
4. Diesels are amazing tow vehicles.
