April, 2017
We took off
on what I thought was going to be a grand adventure in August 2012. We did have
some wonderful adventures exploring National Parks, visiting family and
experiencing our first work camping with Oregon State Parks as Lighthouse interpreters
and running a junior ranger program.
But we were
obligated to return to Florida in December 2013 because we had to attend court
mandated mediation in our law suit against Citizens Insurance co. We had a sinkhole in our bricks and sticks home
that we had been renting out.
We were able
to take a short trip (August through November 2014) traveling mostly through
the East.
We returned
to Florida rotating workcamping positions with three different State Parks from
December 2014 until the end of April 2017.
We finally settled the sinkhole case after spending time, energy and
money preparing the house to be sold.
Thankfully it sold rather quickly in August 2016. We made the decision to continue workcamping
to recoup some of the money we to spent out of pocket on the house.
During March
into April 2017 we ended up spending some time at Lazydays in Tampa. Our galley gray tank was leaking. (We had the
other grey tank replaced at Camping World in December 2015) While we were
waiting for the tank to be delivered we discovered that our hot water tank had
rusted through. The experience was
frustrating so I really don’t want to go into it but we finally were able to
leave Lazydays after 32 DAYS!
We have a
frame separation issue that we will have checked out at a Lippert facility in
Kissimmee on May 2. So at this time we
really don’t know where our travels will take us but we are so ready to
continue on this journey.
