Journey To Simplify-Part Three

We began to explore small towns and different areas of the countryside and decided on the area we were interested in. Our plan was to buy land and put a moble home on it to live in while we built a house. Someone recommended a place to buy a moble home and we went to look. After looking at the used ones, we ended up buying a new but inexpensive one. The payments were $160 dollars a month. We then set out to purchase the land. The only problem was that this particular county didn't allow you to put a mobile on anything that wasn't a huge piece of land and then only with the neighboring landowners' permission. Oh no. (I think it is pretty funny that it never occured to us that such rules existed. We were following our dream.) Now we had to find a place to put the moble home. We found a nice park (as far as parks go) that actually had yards in a small town of 1300 people. We had it set up there and we moved in. (As it turns out, just about everyone on our street had tried to do the same thing that we did. :-} )
Jack and I stood on the steps and looked around and he said, "A year at the most ........"
