Inspiration is the story of why the author embarked into the world of motor homing. The story starts with the author's description of the gift his father gave him during life, and clarified during his last months of life. His father's clear and concise message was "live without regrets and be happy". Since the authors dream was to own a motor home one day, his fathers last messages were the guiding forces for the author to fulfill a life long dream. Subsequent chapters take the reader through the selection, negotiating and purchasing process the author followed in acquiring his first motor home, Country Coach Inspire. The information presented focuses on Class A diesel "pusher" motor homes. However, the basic information could provide a valuable resource for those interested in purchasing any class of motor home. Later chapters describe the travels and experiences of the first year and half of ownership. The trips include the famous "shakedown trip" known to all owners of motor homes ending with service at the Country Coach factory in Junction City, Oregon. The author then takes the reader across the country as he and his family embark on a history tour of the U.S.
