Long time lurker, time to introduce myself

Hello all,

I've read a bit on these forums but haven't gotten the courage to introduce myself until now. We have 40' 1996 blue bird RE with a cummins diesel engine.

I have a large family so I installed 7 bunks plus the master queen size in the back for my wife and I. I have a solar system that still needs some work.

We're planning on full timing it for a year while my oldest is still in school.

I'll post some pictures when I get a chance, and I'm happy answer any questions that you might have.

Dan

Welcome! Sounds like quite an adventure. We finally finished wiring in our solar/battery/inverter setup over the weekend.

Four years and change... Yup, longest term lurker I've ever heard tell of.
Good intro, and a nice change of pace for Nubes! I.e. not starting off which some variant of, "It's broke, help!!!"
I believe you'll need to post 5X before you're allowed to upload pix.
Typicly I'd add, 'Welcome to the nut house,' but you've got 2 years on me, and sounding ready to get on your way...
PS: I like your user name, tho I doubt with a family of nine somebody doesn't find themself waiting in line once in a while!
