Homosassa Springs, FL

Arrived in Homosassa Springs.  Staying at Turtle Creek RV Park for a week.  Enjoying lots of local wildlife.  This is a friendly, laid-back community.  Seeing the sights with Pam & Todd and Todd's parents, Jim & Verla.

Enjoying the Beautiful Sunshine State--Florida

Finally made it to Florida..starting out in Mexico Beach.  What a quaint beach community!  Enjoying the quiet side of the panhandle Gulf side.  We had dinner with Pam & Todd (fun cousins!!) at Tucan's on the beach and caught up on everything since we saw them last.  I'll take pictures and post them later.  Really enjoying this new lifestyle!  No hurry!!!!

On the Road...Our First Trek as Fulltimers


Well, we're finally on the road.  We left Wisconsin 10/17, but got a chance to see our first snowfall for the year (& hopefully last!) Our first stop will be in Illinois for the night, then to Nashville, TN for a few days.   We've got almost 2 weeks to get to Bradenton, FL for our November reservations, so we'll take our time and see the sights. 

Feels great not to have a rushed agenda, like we've been used to doing all our lives.  Retirement....it is grand!!  Of course, Irene isn't really retired...still doing her medical transcription from the RV, which has been working out great.  We'll both be doing some job searching in Florida...some part-time work to keep us busy.  I'll keep the updates coming.
