Ocean Resorts, Vero Beach, FL

November 6, 2006 – March, 2007

It was very hard to leave Nettles Island. In the 2 weeks we were there, we made a lot of friends. Sometimes, you just “click” when you meet someone new and that’s what happened when we met Bill and Louise, and Gene and Marge (at Nettles). We promised to stay in touch with them.


Ocean Resorts is similar to Nettles Island, but on a much smaller scale. After spending 3 weeks at Ocean Resorts last season, we knew we wanted to come back again. Mary Jane and Dave Mulaski will join us here in January, 2007 and we are looking forward to our tennis games, kayak rides, bridge games and bike rides with them.

We continued to visit Joni’s Mom on a regular basis, every week or week and a half. She seems to be doing well and is starting to get used to life without Dad. We brought her to Nettles for a day and want to bring her to Ocean Resorts also. It was good for her to see our new “life style”, although she still thinks we are crazy to be doing this fulltiming thing.

Since we will be here all winter – almost 6 months, I will break our stories into separate posts about our life here at Ocean Resorts and introduce you to many of our new friends.
