Age:

65+

Fun loving Retired couple Details: Full time Rvers; living in a 45' Tiffin Bus; retired Poultry; cattle and Dog Breeder (AKC Toy Breeds). Had to move from our farm because of husband's allergy to something chemical in the air that causes his throat to swell. So we are now on 10 acres; 3 miles from our farm and enjoying not having any obligations. :-) Billy Joe loves to piddle in his shop, I have never seen anything he can't do. He's always busy doing something. I'm housekeeper, chief cook and bottle washer. I enjoy cooking, working with my flowers, crafting and just being lazy when I want to be. Home Town: Crystal Springs is a nice little town with some good restaurants and fast food about 6 miles from our place. It was the tomato capital of the world in it's hey day. Enjoy Blues museums, nearby lakes and parks and your Walmart is only 12 miles out. Crystal Springs also has something going on several week ends every month. Music at the pavilion on Railroad Ave downtown. Pretty little town nice folk. Skills or Expertise to Share: Billy Joe has a nice shop in which he has many mechanic tools; wood working tools, welder etc. He is a wealth of knowledge and can pretty much do anything; I also enjoy piddling with him. He has a Wood Mizer portable sawmill. When we have dead pine trees; he makes lumber. We just plain enjoy staying busy as our bodies will allow. Our days are short; we love sitting under the porch; bird watching and enjoying the flowers in the yard. I like to craft when in the mood; crochet some; and enjoy cooking.

    Great, peaceful stay. A bit off the beaten path, but worth it. Good conversation with the hosts & a good location to town as well.

    The hosts were interesting to talk to. Had a working saw mill on property. Easy enough in and out. Do follow the directions. Had electric available. Would go back.
