This is where we will be moving sometime between now and early November depending on when the current residents’ house is finished being built.
The angled wall of our apartment is where the building takes a turn. It is a common wall with our neighbor but since it is in the daytime use part of the apartment we are not concerned about neighbor noise. The master bedroom wall is also a common wall but on the other side of it is a storeroom used only by the building management so we don’t anticipate noise problems there either. And the apartment we have leased is on the third floor which is the top floor of the building so we will have no little feet running about over head. We think we’ve found the best location possible in any apartment building.
Yes, the apartment is close to the freeway. So are many RV parks. And so was our house before we went fulltiming. For us, freeway traffic is an effective white noise machine. But there aren’t any train tracks next door and the closest one of those has only one weekday local train so no more train whistles waking us up in the middle of the night.
And it’s about a half mile down the street from the house we sold when we went fulltiming so we already know how much we like the neighborhood.
One of the things we like about the neighborhood is French Park. This large facility mows pathways through the grasses for summer walking and winter skiing. It’s a great place to feel like you are in the country while still being within walking distance from home in the city.
Plus we’ve already started transferring our prescriptions back to Target. And they still had us in their files. Of course we will need to update the address and phone number but it was so nice to not have any hassles about filing the insurance on our medicines.
I think we are going to like moving back home. Except for winter, of course.
TTYL,
Linda
