Hey group! My wife and I have finally executed our lifetime retirement plan and purchased an RV. After many years of looking, and some tough decision making, we chose the Forester 3051. We have had it for just over a month and have made two shakedown trips to familiarize ourselves with the coach and its operation. We love it! We couldn't be happier with our choice and the whole RV experience.
We are Gary and Faye Yates from Huntsville, Alabama. We are both recently retired from Redstone Arsenal. We are excited about spending lots of time on the road seeing America and visiting our seven grandkids spread over three states. I am an information gatherer, so I'm sure I will be spending lots of time on the forum.

Welcome! We have a couple of folks from Alabama here now. I am expecting to be down that way come late July for a family shin-dig.

Welcome Gary and Faye. I have a girlfriend in Guntersville. If you know of any nice campgrounds in your area, please let me know. Thinking I might take a trip down there next fall.
