Where we are now
We are now in the process of moving from Washington to Michigan. We left Washington in September of 2025 and traveled in our Winnebago Vista RV to Michigan. While in Michigan we started looking for a house. To make a long story short, we decided on a condominium in a complex that is being developed, and bought one of their units.
We’re currently living in our RV and traveling through the south for the winter and will be back in the spring, hopefully moving into our new home as early June or as late as August.
