We have worked here in Aurora, CO as resident managers since August '09 but have decided to go back on the road. Mini U Storage is a good company with good people but sitting in one spot finally got to me! We could have gone back to roving for them but honestly, I just can't do the auctions any longer, too many sad stories. I look for the positive parts of life and thankfully seldom find the negatives other than losing family members which of course is the worst you can go through in my opinion!
About 5 years ago we worked for IDPlans out of Florida doing shopping center surveys and we have decided to go back to work for them. It is definitely a "job" but the money is pretty good and the travel can be extensive, hopefully giving us an opportunity to see family in various locations. Lots to do to get the motorhome ready for our new adventure such as tuning up the generator (won't be plugged in so all generator), we put in a new vinyl floor (cuts down the dirt tracked in), wiring harness for the trailer hook-up and more but we are just about ready now. Work starts in So. Cal on 8/30!!
Until then we are still in Aurora taking care of Cameron and Savanna before and after school but will be pulling out about 8/24. That's the hardest part, leaving the grandkids. Our sons are ok, they know it's what we like to do and they will miss us but since I am still mothering them I think there will be a certain amount of relief when we go! Happily, the grandkids are old enough now that we could fly them to where we are during the summer and explore so that will be fun!
If you see a Southwind sitting in a shopping center with a 20' trailer being pulled stop and say hi!
