WP Franklin Campground, Alta, Fl.
We have been busy helping Penny’s folks move out of their fifth wheel trailer in Punta Gorda RV park where they have wintered for the last 15 or so years. It is in a canal park where they moor the sailboat right next to the trailer. Dan, one of Penny’s brothers, also winters there just a few hundred feet down the road. Joel, Penny’s youngest brother, and his wife, Lindy, rent a large home at the end of the road; they are there year round.
Joel and Lindy and John and Shirley have bought a home together about nine miles north of PGRV. It is about nine miles closer to Joel’s work. And, John and Shirley recognize that at their age they are going to need assistance as time goes on. The home they have purchased has bedrooms with bathrooms at both ends and lots of communal space in between.
We expect to have mom and dad fully moved by Sunday. He has an outpatient surgery scheduled for Tuesday morning, so we all agreed to complete their move before then. Joel and Lindy have until the first of the year to complete their move and we will help in that endeavor as well. Then, too, Dan will move into John and Shirley’s fifth wheel. Sheez!
