Look how wound up I am...

I was just reading over all the old posts that started when I joined POG over two years ago...and now that I have my Bus I can make plans for the rest of my life...

I've wanted to buy a mobile home in or near central Fl. all along where I breathe the best...away from the coasts...in less humidity...

I hope to find a place with at least a 14 X 70 Mobile and a huge lanai...on it's own property so I only have to pay taxes...not in a community where the association fee's and rents keep going up every year...and with enough space to park my bus and car or two...

Probably will sell one of them...who needs 4...sentimentality made me keep the Lincoln my husband bought me last...but I do love shopping and spending the night in a Walmart or other area while I shop at my leisure in the Coach House Class B that I took to Ca. after my son died...It has the wee fridge to put the perishables in until I get back home in my own time...I usually only shop for staples twice a year...so I can pack that wee coach in a couple of days...I eat out a lot too...so wasteful to cook for only one person...

Then with saving 5K a yr. taxes and over 500. a mo. for gas and elec bills in this ole house I'll have more fuel money to travel with...as well as to keep my bus up and fix up any mobile home I find if it needs some repair...

In the summer hot months I'll come back to Jersey to spend some time at my daughters' place in Bayville and visit the few old friends I still have here... I know my dau. will come down to Fl..every winter...Try and keep her away...lol...Prob. see her more there than I do here...

Those are the gist of my plans now that I HAVE AT LAST FOUND MY BUS...!!!
Everything hinged on that...

Incidently, Don who I bought it from called me not a half hour ago wanting to know if I was still as happy as I was when he left to go back to Birmingham...I know he's convince I am...He said he could tell it in my voice...We're already talking about him bringing Media down to Fl. this winter to visit me...I believe we'll be friends for life...

And last but not least...The ship now has it's own name...the Printer Bob Hinkson and his mother who works in the office are making the new sign for the destination spot over the windshield to read..
... "JourneyOne's Cruiser" ...
Bob has made all the signs I ever had put on any coach or car...all said ... "JourneyOne" ... I've already explanined the reason I added Cruiser in my last e-mail...

I'm having the 50 amp. outlet I had on my house for my Vectra put back...and keeping the 30 amp already there for the Coach House...The Prevost has to sit for a bit 'til I get all this stuff done before The Rally or my Trip down to Fl..in it..I'm not going to pull my tow car this year...want to know the coach better to be safer...I did without one for years so I can do it again...May take a folding scooter I already have since I have the Bays big enough to fit it in...one more advantage...That just hit me this second... Smile..

The wind down will be My Friend Karen and I playing ...Hand & Foot... the Canasta card game in the Coach as soon as I get all moved in... Halleluliah...

I'm already thinking about a short virgin run out to Maple Lake Camp Ground for a few days or week...Love their lake and I know my way around there real good...Just Itching to drive it again...lol...Maybe after the electrician installs the 50 amp..and just before I plug it in...Got so much to remember to do before I can even turn the key...I want to practice doing it...OOOOhhhhh

Hugs Always Viv...
