Traveling the country in our RV
We are Steph and Pat Milligan. Life is too short! So we decided to retire early, sell our home and all our possessions to travel the country in our motorhome while we are still young enough and healthy enough to enjoy life to the fullest. We invite you to follow our journey here as we, along with our pets, explore this great country where every stop along the way is our new view!
