In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

Gulf Shores, Alabama & settling in for the winter




We arrived here Wednesday afternoon about 2:30 after a non stop drive. When we found a place to stop it was full and no place for our rig so we kept on trucking. There weren't too many places to stop either so we were tired after setting up our home. Judy saw a 'gater while we crossed Mobile bay and the cotton is ready to be harvested. It has been overcast yesterday and today, for the most part. But.....it's in the 70s at night & 80s daytime so the trade off isn't too bad is it? Oh.....and zero rain. You can see in the picture how much Judy loves palm trees! Our friends Ray & Barb are here & our sites are pretty close. We are also bumping into lots of our winter neighbors from the past 2 winters. We are in a site 2 or 3 rows away from where we were in the past but have ourselves set up to move to a good site November 11 when another RVer leaves. It didn't "feel" like home when we arrived, we think it was because we were tired. Today Judy went to Curves, then we had lunch at McDonalds then did 5 loads of laundry. Today Gulf Shores "feels" like home! Ray & Barb wanted to do supper tonight so we went with them....to McDonalds for McRibs....but....it was a different McDonalds. Life is soooooo ruff!
