Hello, it's been a long time...I'm pretty busy these days! I've become what's
called a "Work-Camper" in the RV Park office for a couple of months now. I'm enjoying it a lot, & just love
not having to spend any $$ getting to & from work. The perks to Work-Camping are many, basically it's the barter
system. In exchange for your labor you receive housing, utilities, etc... + $--every situation
is unique to where you are doing the Work-Camping.
I feel very fortunate & thankful that this type of living/working situation gives me
the opportunity to learn new skills, meet new people & reduces my cost of living substantially. Yes,---it's true,
this is not the way I thought it would be, I'm not traveling at this time, although we do plan on traveling during the
"slow-time" next summer. For obvious reasons, Florida is not the place most people seek out during the Summer months.
I have happily & successfully accomplished my goal of living a more Natural & less
consumer driven-material lifestyle. Everyday I'm surrounded by the unspoiled beauty of Mother Nature, fewer people &
way less cars/traffic & stress.
Every day I get to walk in the Woods for miles on end with my Dog off the leash (Black
lab-Blu, whom we inherited from another park resident) & just the occasional sighting of another person. We
also got a Kitty Cat-Winky, he has 1 bad eye) from the same park resident we got the dog from.
So, life is good & I feel truly Blessed. I do realize that accomplishing all
of this required a leap of Faith on my part, which actually took me awhile to muster up the courage to take...I'm so very
glad I did!
