You haven’t heard from Heath or me since final yr. (Are we too late into January for tacky new yr’s jokes? I hope not.)
Since it’s been so lengthy since we’ve written you, I assumed we should always reintroduce ourselves actual fast.
We’re Heath & Alyssa. We began touring full-time proper after our marriage ceremony in 2014 and spent years working our personal companies on the street so we may journey indefinitely. Heath began the RV Entrepreneur Podcast whereas we traveled so we may meet different folks—such as you—who need to journey the nation lengthy earlier than retirement.
After visiting all fifty states and RVing on three continents, we pumped the brakes final yr to stay in Colorado the place we purchased a property to construct a campground.
(You can stay up for the story behind why I’ve a screenshot of our safety digicam with the Sheriff at our property subsequent week ????????)
And now we’re a household of 4, nonetheless touring as usually as we will:
You need to be a particular degree of loopy to journey to Disney World at Christmas with a new child child and a toddler, nevertheless it was a blast ????♥️
Here on our weblog, this yr you’ll be able to anticipate to listen to extra in regards to the realities of constructing a campground, tales of adventures as we part-time journey with our household, and assets for vacationers working a enterprise on the street.
Lots has occurred because you heard from us final.
But possibly the most important information is that the county permitted the constructing plans for our campground!
You might keep in mind that we initially had a very easy time submitting for zoning and allowing for our property…
Until out of nowhere the county created a brand new zone for RV parks and pushed again our listening to a month.
Right earlier than Christmas, Heath drove out to the county places of work for our listening to. He listened patiently to the property proprietor earlier than us reply questions on his septic tank plans for over an hour.
Heath began to sweat.
This was the second listening to for this property proprietor to attend and his plans didn’t get permitted.
If we need to open this summer season, we don’t have time to attend one other month or two to get permitted.
Finally it was Heath’s flip. He shared our plans and the board requested two questions:
- What are your designated quiet hours?
- What is the utmost variety of friends on the park?
And they permitted us.
Relieved, Heath joked, “I was worried y’all were going to ask me questions about poop for an hour.”
Everyone laughed.
And now we’re onto the following stage of the constructing course of: financing.
(Which up to now is even much less enjoyable and extra advanced than the zoning course of, however I’ll share extra on that in a number of weeks as soon as we’ve issues finalized!)
So far it seems like 2022 goes to be full of huge tasks for us, like breaking floor and opening our campground. But we’ve some wild journey plans for this yr too that ought to take our household of 4 allllll over the world! ????
Thanks for following together with our more and more loopy plans. We love attending to share this journey with you!
