We believe we have discovered all three through our current lifestyle and heartily recommend it to those approaching their Golden Years. A spirit of adventure, a yearning to travel and, most importantly, a like-minded partner are truly the keys to living unencumbered successfully.

We now invite you to join this exclusive list. Enjoy, Chuck & Kalyn Bryan"

We are both orginaly from Seaford, Delaware and married on December 28, 1991 (15yrs). Shelly is a Registered Nurse. Bobby works remotely for a national Internet company. Like most people we were taught that you go to school, get a job, buy a house, and keep trying to increase your income until you can finally retire. The one thing we did not do that most others do is to have children. This was a choice. Fortunately, we took advantage of our opportunities in life, worked our way out of debt, and live pretty comfortably. Being debt free is one of the most freeing feelings you can ever have. Our house and "stuff" sold quickly. Our lives are an open book. But it's all because we want to put you in our shoes and let you share our experiences in a way that makes them more real and, hopefully, more meaningful. Take care, enjoy, and thank you for your support! Loving Life, Bobby and Shelly Evans."
