How an empty-nester couple who traded in a $400K Texas house for an $80K RV spend their time on the road
"We may be living tiny, but we've got the world's largest suitcase," Kelley said."
"We camped right on the grounds where the balloons took off, so every morning the balloons would fly over, right over the RV itself, and at night they would have the glow," Kelley said."
"We knew we were only going to be there three years, so we thought instead of taking that risk, we can just live in our RV," she said."
Renee and Kelley Hayes, both 58, downsized from an over 2,000-square-foot Texas home into a roughly 45-foot RV and travel the United States as empty nesters. Kelley purchased the RV for about $82,000 in August 2018 while the couple’s children attended college. The couple visits national attractions such as the Grand Canyon and Albuquerque’s hot air balloon festival, camping on launch grounds where balloons flew over the RV. Kelley worked for General Motors until retiring in 2022 and was transferred to Georgia, prompting the couple to continue living in the RV rather than buy a short-term house.
