We would like to welcome you to our personal website. We hope your visit will be interesting and you learn something about living in a recreational vehicle on a long term basis.
We are not on a camping trip. We are not camping out. We live in a home with the added benefits of being able to change locations as it suits us.
Many other "baby-boomers" like us have made a choice to find alternative ways to live again. There is life after retirement from the "rat race" and you can find that happiness too.
Read on. Much needed updates are in the works. I suspect many will want to return to learn about our experiences and to follow up on many of the tips and tricks we learned along the way. Take a moment and bookmark this site.
We certainly would like to hear from you. If you are so inclined , take a minute and send us an e-mail . No unsolicited e-mails will be sent or lists of e-mail address will be sold.
This is a photographic loaded web site.
In the following linked pages, the photos have been reduced in size to allow shorter downloads. Downloading the pages depends on how fast of connection you may have. Please be patient as slower connections take time to load. The more photos the longer it takes.
I have used thumb-nails to speed up the pages loading. If you want to see more details of the pictures simply click on them to download the enlargement. Remember that in many browsers the photos need time to load even if the page says it is done loading. Enjoy the music. It will stop on its own in a couple of minutes but will restart when you refresh or reload the main page.
Pages will display better in full-page view in your browser. This site is designed to work best with Microsoft Internet Explorer. Some browsers do not support music and java scripts. Use your browser back arrow or previous page arrows to go back to the home page.
There is so much more to add but time and travel limits us. Enjoy!

A place of renewal and inspirationIn a previous life, our family originates from the greater Orlando metropolitan area. We had a 5-acre site with a 2-story house and decided to downsize and travel. We sold the whole thing and bought a 5th wheel trailer and truck to tow it. Away we go!

her college education.
Digital Photography - Nikon Cool Pix 950 (Getting old now but it still works!)
This has been an excellent digital camera for us to start out with. Having some previous traditional photographic experience this camera offered the control and quality we wanted and yet was easy enough to use for everyday photos. Almost all of the photos on this web site where done with this camera. It is a real pleasure to use.
Art – Drawing & Painting& Beading
Alas, this is one of our areas that we feel like we never have enough time to develop like we want to. How about you? Judy is now in the process of developing a studio at our home base.
Personal Computers - Macbook Pro, Mac G4 laptop, Gateway 17" laptop, PC Athlon 2 GHz tower, ether net hub, Linksys wireless router, satellite internet system, 4 Ethernet network 160 GB hard drives and more bells and whistles as needed.
Writing - Judy has written a number of articles published these last few years by the Edmonton Journal newspaper.
