I have actually thought about a nice house boat... I could do that! Right now Cinderella is so very grateful not to have to get up a 5 am and work her little tushy off. My Castle is actually on a lake so I can get up every morning and see the water ( trust me after living in the desert water outside my window would be great) watch the birds, the rustling of the trees, and just enjoy a quiet cup of coffee before I start my day...I am an east coaster, and I so remember the smell of the ocean... nothing like it...Its so sad, people have forgotten that its those little things that make life wonderful...Blessing my friend... I will think of you tomorrow as I sit on my porch drinking my coffee...dreaming of the water and the smell of the ocean :)
