That is our neighbors Trailer in Kirksville, MO we were in the USAF at the time.

Some folk don't believe it, but my sweetheart and I are just as happy in a trailer as the houses I have built.
BUT for today:
It is according to your needs and
personal feelings. Many years ago we
came to the conclusion that a trailer, mobile home, was best suited for
military life. And with a change of duty
stations, it made moving time simpler (No packing and unpacking) and no need to adjust your living
arrangements with every move. It served
us well and we never felt looked down on nor as I have heard in later years, as
far as I know, we were never called ‘Trailer Trash.’
Here is Florida we have owned & lived
in one house and 2 mobile homes. AT the
end of the year you learn fast, it pays to live in a Mobile Home. Mobile home taxes are much less than half of wood/brick
house. Also taxes go down on the
trailer, BUT on a home there will be an increase every couple years.
All we need is a clean solid place to
live with heat and A/C. A Mobile home has
many years satisfied our needs. So Of course when we buy again here in Florida,
we will be looking for a Mobile home with it’s own land.
Here I learn many folks choose a home due
to hurricane season. That doesn’t bother me too much. Once in the path of a hurricane, we decided to leave our trailer home to outrun a hurricane in the
motor home and mostly did, but when we returned, we found very little damage to
our mobile home and lot.
PS: Thanks
for coming our way…

I'm glad you enjoy your mobile life. Not everyone would. Most folks want to live in a place that has more room. I could have been happy doing that but not with the large family I had. It was our dream for retirement if my husband had lived that long,
We live in a manufactured home on its own land overlooking a small pond that is currently dry, but that will change once the spring rains come back. We've lived in regular concrete block/brick style homes and we've lived in one other very nice brand new manufactured home, which we loved. We are not really afraid of the hurricanes because of where we live, far enough away from either coast and north enough to be pretty safe, except for the threat of tornadoes or winds, but not really too concerned with flooding here where we are. Our house sits up high. We are thankful for what we have at this stage in life.
Pretty sure, I'd love living in a coach -- provided someone else could/would pilot it. Growing up in a small government-issue quad, I'm very comfortable in small spaces. Not so much Tom, but he has two "play houses" out back, lol.
As always, I enjoy your perspective!
I agree with Mevely. You must be very brave driving such a large vehicle. Our car is so small that the mother-in-law has to sit on the roof-rack.
God bless.
