We got mom's for her when she was 65.
took her to NY to FL in 2010
NH, Mt Washington fall 2011
to Acadia maine, via NH & VT in 2012
and headed up to Quebec and Saguenay Fjord this july13.

maybe she's done with camping. bugs, rain, mud, etc..
but how about some destinations you(she)have always wanted to see/visit.

but you can lead a horse to water, you can't change their minds.. just leave her at home.. and travel some solo trips.. I never understood when one person in a relationship is done why the other has to be..

we also have a NY based VW camping club with several members over the ages of 60
kids, grandkids or just enjoying the open spaces before time & age forces us to stay home or worse.. be "in a home"
how do you want to remember your golden years.. watching golden girls and jeopardy?

Subject: Wife is done with Vanagon and camping!

The wife turned 65 and is done with camping in the Vanagon.
She has been a trooper but I guess all things come to a end.
I still enjoy camping in it and the several road trips that I take a year
and I am 67.
I was just wondering how common a situation this is?
Are there many people over 70 on the road in their Vanagon and enjoying
themselves
alone or with partner?
Thanks
