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

It was another good day for travel so we made the 450 mile tow from Hudson, FL to Gulf Shores, AL in one day.  I guess we were anxious to get "home". 

Do you think Dustin enjoys playing ball?  Look at his smile and focus.

It's time to harvest peanuts before tropical storm Michael brings rain to lower Alabama.

WIndow repair and Jacobsen plant tour

We have been in Hudson, FL three nights staying in the Suncoast Designers RV sites for minor warranty window repairs.  We arrived the day before, the work was done the next day and we stuck around another night to tour the Jacobsen Homes manufacturing plant.   

Today we went to Safety Harbor to see where our new home will be built.  We have been informed it is scheduled for completion October 3 and delivered to The Grove in Foley October 5.  We are a week too early to see it on the line, it takes 7 to 9 days to build a home depending on the model and ours will be started next week.
Frame entering line to complete the exterior.  It's then run through the line on the right to complete the interior.
Here's a roof frame going on.
Here's some of the exterior parts waiting to be installed.
 Here's an interior under construction.
After the short tour we spent an hour or more in a model of the home we have ordered, it was furnished so we have ideas where furniture will go.  It felt very comfortable, kinda homey.
