We are Brad & Lisa Cox. We want to welcome you to our site. Lisa and I are originally from north Alabama. We have seven children between us. They are all adults and out of the nest. We started RVing in 2012 with a 2009 Tiffin Alegro Bus, we had remodeled. Our travels were limited until 2017, so the older bus met all of our travel needs. Our goal has been to eventually go fulltime. In 2017 we updated the Tiffin with a 2017 Thor Challenger 37YT. Our travel and adventures were increasing but we still thought we had a few years to go before going fulltime.
Lisa being a nurse manager at the time, I was working for a distribution company and traveled alot. We knew changes had to be made to follow the dream of full-time travel but be able to make a living while we traveled. We both were too young to retire.
Opportunity arose in 2019 that allowed me to quit the job I had and start my own company. Lisa , a nurse, had already been looking at the travel nurse opportunities and having discussions with travel nurse companies about the industry, requirements, etc.
We were ready, things were falling into place, so we sold/gave away everything, the house, land, shop, excess vehicles, furniture, etc. We oficially went fulltime in our 2017 Thor in August 2019. We moved to an RV resort at Lake Guntersville, Al. Lisa commuted back and forth to her job, as I traveled so nothing changed for me.
As for a new residence, we chose Texas to be home. We joined the Escapees club, enrolled in the mail forwarding service. We moved registrations, voting, and obtained a Tx. driver license. We were officially legal Texans.
In Septmeber 2019 I turned in my 30 day notice for my new business venture. It would be operating October 1, 2019. Lisa turned in her 60 day notice the first part of November. The wheels were turning and it finally had grip. In the planning stage Lisa had obtained her Texas nursing license for we thought we wanted her first assignment there.
October 1st 2019, I officially opened my manufacturers rep firm "Warning Solutions", I had one client Whelen Engineering and it's Outdoor Warning and Industrial Products Division. (Note:) I have been in this industry along with communications for 27+ years. The only thing new was owning the company.
January 1st 2020, Lisa and I set out on our first journey across America. We didn't know where we were going and didn't care. We ended up in Arizona for three weeks before Lisa got her first assignment as a travel nurse in Grandbury, Tx. for a 13 week contract.
Reality finally set in, we both had "went through the change". The rest will be history. We are loving our new life and we have more freedom than we could every expect.
After a few months full time in the 2017 Thor we decided for fulltime use, comfort and just quality of life, we needed to up-grade the coach to a larger, higher end unit. We purchased our current 2018 Entegra Aspire in March of 2020. (Well I decided and had to convenience Lisa.) We traveled to Longmont, Co. to take possession. We love it.
Just prior to this, I had convinced her to get a new toad. 2019 Jeep Wrangler. I was on a role so the new coach was a given.
