We are now Floridians!

Well, things have really changed in our lives. We are no longer the Traveling Pages but now we are the Floridian Pages.

We packed up the RV and it took 15 big cartons and tons of stuff in the basement of the RV to unload. We have filled a 2 bedroom 2 bath house and garage and still we have to get rid of stuff. There is a picture of RV with the packed carton you could not even move in it.

We looked at several places here in Florida. A beautiful home on the inter- coastal that was way more then we could afford. A beautiful Condo in Palm Coast on the inter coastal we were going to take but we would have had to move in for 3 months. Move out for 4 months then we could move back in permanent but we thought was too much. So we looked at un-furnished houses and this house we got was just what the doctor ordered.

It's a nice little cottage that sits on the marsh in Flagler Beach. It is 3 blocks from the beach. It has a nice shaded yard, a wrap around deck, a garage and 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. A nice kitchen area and living room with a slider that goes out on the deck.

The people who were here sold us a living room suit, a table, and a washer and lawn mover for $200.00. We bought a new bed frame and comfy mattress and box spring for $700.00 and a HD TV 32 inch from Walmart for $450.00.

We eat out on the deck because the landlord left a deck set half round bar type table with chairs and we had TV trays and eat in living room.

Today we are going garage sailing and i hope to get a dresser and two chairs or more to use with the little table we bought off the last tenants. To think when we sold the house we gave Leigh's son who bought it our whole house of furniture pictures and all the other stuff. On our way through to Florida his son's wife did give us back our bear pictures and cabin pictures to hang on our wall here and I bought a picture from a thrift store here. I will post pictures of the inside of the house after today.

Leigh is a happy camper fixing up his garage and spraying down the deck and working in the yard. The previous tenants weren't much on upkeep.

We have a rare bird who thinks he lives here. Does anymore know what kind he is? If so please comment. I will keep all updated on our life. I have to think of a new name for the blog so comments on that also.
