Big changes since the last post in 2014. Our full-time RV experience has ended. Not that we wanted it to, but logistically we did not have a choice. We were blessed to setup our RV lot on family land, but that ended in September 2014. By October 1st, 2014 we moved into a 2 bedroom apartment in Henryville. Our 36' Jayco 5th Wheel camper sat parked all winter.
Again, we did not "give up", and this was not by choice. The underlying reason is simply because the land we were staying on is no longer available for our use, and we aren't ready to purchase land yet. With the winter approaching and our 2nd daughter due to be born October 24th, we wanted to get settled quickly, so we were fortunate to find an apartment that fit our needs. If we had stayed where we were, it was going to be doable with plenty of winterizing and preparation. With having to suddenly move, there was no time to find another place to "park" and get all of the winter preparations completed before cold weather hit.
Now we are into spring, and we have sold the large 5th wheel and diesel truck. We will be staying in our apartment for at least another year. We have been looking at homes and land, but decided to just wait for awhile. We do not have a contractual lease on our apartment, the rent is affordable and we have nice neighbors. It's a convenient location and there's plenty of room. In the meantime, we have purchased another camper. We can't go too long without making family camping and road trips a priority. We downsized quite a bit and got a 2010 KZ Spree 240 BHS. It's a 26' travel trailer with bunks. It's lightweight and easily towed by our half-ton pickup or suburban. While we wait for the right time to purchase land, we can still enjoy family outings and escape the apartment once in awhile.
