Hi, it’s us, Tom & Elyse!
We both caught the travel bug in our early thirties, which eventually led to our meeting one winter in southern Florida. Tom had just returned home to Florida from three and a half years of full-time RV traveling, during which time he developed a reputation as an expert in the relatively new field of RV Solar. Tom wanted to lend his expertise to other RVer’s, and had plans to open an RV solar shop in his hometown of Winter Haven, FL. He enlisted Elyse to run the business side of things and manage clients. Fast forward over three years later… we sold the RV solar business and are preparing to return to full-time traveling in our 4×4 campervan, Ogre!
