It’s a brand new game.
My visit to my roots, to my hometown is done.The experience of seeing my beginnings through mature eyes brought my life into focus. The visions of my past which nurtured me and molded me, had grown old and wise or broken by the storms. Forgotten friends and cherished loved ones cast warm glows on the tumble-down, tarnished scenery, now overgrown or plowed under.
Everything and everyone tugged at me, pulling my loves and dreams from the deep recesses of my heart, a heart which has felt so much , which has rejoiced and cried, and ached and soared.
I've shook out the past. Going home made everything different, as if the world shifted. I see things differently now. Now, with my home and my memories in my heart, I’m on a brand new route. I've got a one-way ticket to anywhere. Holding on to my memories is all I can do. I’m on my way to find my place in the sun. I’m taking the dare, here I go.
I’m going full time!!
I am selling out and renting out my house in Sun City, California. I thought I would share some pictures In case someone may be interested.
For those of you who are not RVers. I will be considered homeless, but in the eyes of the RV community , it is called, "Going full time" in my motorhome, the true "tiny house."
The home is centrally located in Southern California –– an hour north of the San Diego beaches, museums, Balboa Park and the home of the San Diego Padres.
The house is an hour east of Los Angeles and all the city has to offer: Hollywood, The Getty Center, Disneyland, and so much more.
If the two golf courses in Sun City aren’t enough to satisfy, drive an hour east to Palm Springs and enjoy any of the 125 courses—that’s 2,250 holes. Or ride the Palm Springs Tramway up to the top of the San Jacinto Mountains in order to escape the heat in the summer, or to go snowboarding in the winter. Oh yes, don’t forget to indulge in the many hot springs in the area.
But if you don’t want to fight the California traffic, stay in Sun City. Enjoy over 50 clubs and a myriad of activities offered by the homeowners association.
