    is this a good plan?

    well the trailer will be a nice place to stay while I look around in the three main places I like. louisiana fla. and arkansas. fla is looking farther and farther away as the property prices are so darn high. seventeen k for a lot. to much, arkansas has 4000 foot homes new on thirtyfive acres...

    Best Spot to Retire

    I was looking at deland fla. but mount dora seems like it deserves a good look, close to orlando so if one needs something you have a metro area only 20 min, away, and the town seems quaint with a historic distric and home prices are not to expensive.
