Our History

Ohio, United States
Having recently retired we are fulfilling our long time dream. We began our camping life with a tent in 1969 adjusting as each of our three sons arrived over the years and gradually progressed to a 32' Class A in 2007. Even after our sons became too busy with their own interests, we continued dreaming over the years. The Louisville, KY 2003 Great North American RV Rally and the book "Movin' On" convinced us that a motorhome after retirement was really for us! In 2007 we sold our home and disposed of most of our belongings and awaited the wife's retirement on February 1, 2008. We were out in our first motorhome ten times in our first summer in 2007, with our grandson joining us eight of those ten times. Since he must stay behind with his mom and dad to continue school, we told him he can join us on vacations (by car or plane) anywhere we are as we travel the US. Imagine the history lessons he could acquire! However, Mom and Dad don't look at it that way, especially the flying. Fortunately we don't miss work one bit!! We just miss the friends there. We have many hobbies to keep us busy when we decide to sit still for a day. Hope to see you on the road.

CHRISTMAS TIME IN WAUCHULA, FLORIDA

Our church began Christmas activities with the hanging of the greens and then the Children's Pageant on Wednesday, December 16th.  We always enjoy that very much. This church has a large attendance of young families.  We like to see that in a church that we attend.  That has not always been the case as we've traveled across the country.



The children always do so well!!  
When we returned to our park after the program, we decided to drive around and look at the lighted decorations since it was dark.  I had noticed a couple when I walked to Bingo the week before and was impressed.  My camera really does not do it justice, but is my best. 


I really liked this tree and would 
like to find out how it was made.
I will get a closer look!!
      




















Since that program we have had yard sales in the park and Gary has begun doing volunteer work at the Galleries where he shows some of his drawings.  A local hospital accepted three of his drawings to display.  He was not able to see the place where they will be hung because they are closed to any visitors.  The church did send in carolers to another local hospital/rehab facility, but they could only walk the halls.
Gary's coffee group also used the park's clubhouse for the morning coffee a couple times because it has been much too cold to sit around outside here as they had been doing.  Hopefully this week's warming trend continues so that they can get back to their usual.  I sure don't remember this much cold from last winter!! 
Yesterday, Sunday the 20th,  the ladies had their fourth annual Christmas Ladies Tea.  It was very nice and we were treated to three of our great lady singers. 
Susan, her daughter Cary, and Beth.

It was good to get acquainted with our
organist, Libby and her grand-daughter at
the table where I sat.

Sorry to cut this so short, but there is a bonfire down on the green across from the clubhouse soon. So I must get a move on it!!  If I don't get back to this again before, have a wonderful Christmas with your families!!!  Take care and stay healthy!!
