WEBVTT

00:00:40.790 --> 00:00:42.354
Me

00:00:42.355 --> 00:00:47.224
The freedom is the freedom
to move on or to stay put.

00:00:47.225 --> 00:00:51.649
I love to see what\'s going to be around
the next band of over the next tail.

00:00:51.650 --> 00:00:54.889
It\'s just you know I mean
that\'s kinda strange but that\'s

00:00:54.890 --> 00:00:58.609
exactly how I felt and I
still feel that we enjoy

00:00:58.610 --> 00:01:03.109
the trip more than we do the destination in

00:01:03.110 --> 00:01:05.809
that typing could difference
between vacation as

00:01:05.810 --> 00:01:09.660
in people who are really
into the travel lifestyle

00:01:10.210 --> 00:01:14.704
you\'re out in the open air.

00:01:14.705 --> 00:01:16.624
They\'re not tied down.

00:01:16.625 --> 00:01:22.399
Her saying like if you had a
home you can pack up and go.

00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:28.350
And that\'s freedom by

00:01:37.030 --> 00:01:40.279
one estimate that we\'ve
heard several times.

00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:44.929
It\'s been 2.5 million people in
North America Canada and the US who

00:01:44.930 --> 00:01:50.970
live in their rigs at least six months
a year and perhaps the entire year

00:01:53.370 --> 00:01:58.404
I was foreman of a job and I had
an electrician gum on the job.

00:01:58.405 --> 00:02:00.744
That was what we call a tramp Warren.

00:02:00.745 --> 00:02:08.049
And I got an invitation from him to come
to bring my wife and visit his house and

00:02:08.050 --> 00:02:12.399
1K saw that fully equipped RV with

00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:17.019
a refrigerator and the bathroom
and the television and so-forth.

00:02:17.020 --> 00:02:18.789
She set her heart on it right.

00:02:18.790 --> 00:02:22.089
Then. Then it was just a
matter of convincing me that

00:02:22.090 --> 00:02:25.839
we didn\'t have to wait until the last
child left but males but to do it.

00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:29.349
And I did that to a very thorough campaign.

00:02:29.350 --> 00:02:33.989
I would each day put up a new
poster that said things like

00:02:33.990 --> 00:02:40.969
We could be fishing now and then I would put
periodically notes on his steering wheel.

00:02:40.970 --> 00:02:43.519
That said something about do you
sure you really want to go to

00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:45.949
work today but he said that I

00:02:45.950 --> 00:02:50.929
didn\'t really get the message until
she started wrapping my sandwiches.

00:02:50.930 --> 00:02:55.729
I\'m road male. Then I realized
she must mysterious about it.

00:02:55.730 --> 00:02:59.719
Must communities be rooted in place.

00:02:59.720 --> 00:03:02.569
After a decade of studying community in

00:03:02.570 --> 00:03:05.044
Papua New Guinea anthropologists

00:03:05.045 --> 00:03:09.964
David and Dorothy counts turned their
attention to a community at home.

00:03:09.965 --> 00:03:17.010
And discovered in the process community is
where you feel the freedom to create it

00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:25.009
In 1982 on our way back to Ontario
after working on a book on Aging.

00:03:25.010 --> 00:03:30.334
We met for the second time some people who
describe themselves as full-time are veers.

00:03:30.335 --> 00:03:32.809
They were retired they were elderly.

00:03:32.810 --> 00:03:36.349
They said that there were thousands
of them out there and they were

00:03:36.350 --> 00:03:40.890
having the times of their
lives and we were intrigued.

00:03:42.490 --> 00:03:45.244
But may want to be in our veer.

00:03:45.245 --> 00:03:49.129
Well I had always a dream.

00:03:49.130 --> 00:03:52.459
To give me a good saddle horse.

00:03:52.460 --> 00:03:58.354
Put my bed role on the back and
see the United States. Well

00:03:58.355 --> 00:04:00.979
age caught up with me. I couldn\'t do that.

00:04:00.980 --> 00:04:03.960
So the next best thing is nervy.

00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:08.329
If I was in the house
and the neighborhood I

00:04:08.330 --> 00:04:11.329
don\'t think I\'d be sitting carbon
with three or four other people.

00:04:11.330 --> 00:04:13.759
And maybe carbon by
myself in the front yard.

00:04:13.760 --> 00:04:16.234
And this way we\'re france.

00:04:16.235 --> 00:04:17.809
Yeah just cut it out.

00:04:17.810 --> 00:04:22.639
Okay who\'s kinda cut it on an angle angle
into it you know I have neighbors all the

00:04:22.640 --> 00:04:24.694
time now we can talk where before

00:04:24.695 --> 00:04:27.614
I lived in a house for ten years and
I knew the neighbors on each side.

00:04:27.615 --> 00:04:31.590
I mean one across the street. And
that\'s all I got to know him ten years.

00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:37.969
Okay yeah. I still can do the things
I wanna do and still be an RV.

00:04:37.970 --> 00:04:40.649
I don\'t need a house or an
apartment or anything like that.

00:04:40.650 --> 00:04:46.179
I mean I\'m still doing exactly what I did
when I lived in out thing is I\'m just changed

00:04:46.180 --> 00:04:51.294
the scenery wherever I want the
night before we came here.

00:04:51.295 --> 00:04:53.379
We parked in a parking lot overnight.

00:04:53.380 --> 00:04:56.214
We had no hookups we had
nobody else with us.

00:04:56.215 --> 00:05:00.519
And that\'s what we call dry
camping or boon docking.

00:05:00.520 --> 00:05:06.774
And that\'s the opposite I guess of being
in this sort of bonding situation.

00:05:06.775 --> 00:05:10.809
If you talk to our viewers I think
many of them see the roots.

00:05:10.810 --> 00:05:14.529
Well back in pioneer days in North America.

00:05:14.530 --> 00:05:18.789
Began to get reliable
vehicles and a network

00:05:18.790 --> 00:05:23.079
of roads in which they could travel
in the late teens and twenties

00:05:23.080 --> 00:05:27.309
One of the first organizations
of RV years if you

00:05:27.310 --> 00:05:31.749
will was a group called tin
can tourists so-called

00:05:31.750 --> 00:05:35.859
because they would eat their meals
out of tin cans and they identified

00:05:35.860 --> 00:05:40.389
themselves by putting a tin can on their
rig so that they would know each other.

00:05:40.390 --> 00:05:48.309
And so in greet each other and trust each other
so that when you see today on big RVs the

00:05:48.310 --> 00:05:52.869
logos of the Good Sam Club or the
escape ease club this this relates

00:05:52.870 --> 00:05:55.044
right back to the tin can tourist who put

00:05:55.045 --> 00:05:58.149
out tin cans so that other
people would recognize them.

00:05:58.150 --> 00:06:01.194
Restarted the Club in 1978.

00:06:01.195 --> 00:06:04.179
We were writing for travel
magazines of the time.

00:06:04.180 --> 00:06:05.984
Someone wrote in and said

00:06:05.985 --> 00:06:11.689
Is there a club just for full timers and
we researched it and said No that wasn\'t.

00:06:11.690 --> 00:06:15.934
But if people were interested in forming
such a club we\'d be glad to do it.

00:06:15.935 --> 00:06:19.699
So we started out with 82 families.

00:06:19.700 --> 00:06:23.839
And we said all right now if we\'re going
to be doing this this extensively

00:06:23.840 --> 00:06:28.009
with the a newsletter and
all we need to have a name.

00:06:28.010 --> 00:06:32.269
So we had a contest and it
was amazing that all of

00:06:32.270 --> 00:06:37.714
the people who responded to the
contest had some way of saying

00:06:37.715 --> 00:06:42.694
Being free or getting
independent or something

00:06:42.695 --> 00:06:48.109
every name they came up with was that and
escape these just kinda tied them all together.

00:06:48.110 --> 00:06:51.499
We didn\'t intend to start
a big RV organization.

00:06:51.500 --> 00:06:53.329
Our intention was very simple.

00:06:53.330 --> 00:06:57.540
We wanted to keep track of
the friends that we made.

00:07:01.450 --> 00:07:07.999
More and more people are are being
at a younger age and therefore he is

00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:10.579
in fifties and these people
a good many of them are

00:07:10.580 --> 00:07:13.729
victim of what\'s called
the contingent economy.

00:07:13.730 --> 00:07:19.894
They\'re people who\'ve been downsized there
and uh go on the road in order to to live

00:07:19.895 --> 00:07:23.329
because it\'s an inexpensive
way to live and they travel.

00:07:23.330 --> 00:07:31.219
And we got our first jobs through

00:07:31.220 --> 00:07:34.909
a magazine called Work camper news
which is published for people who

00:07:34.910 --> 00:07:36.949
live as we do in our RV and want

00:07:36.950 --> 00:07:39.784
to work and need to work part
of the time or all the time.

00:07:39.785 --> 00:07:43.339
Other people are the kind of folks
who want to eat the dessert.

00:07:43.340 --> 00:07:46.729
First they say look there\'s no
ego being a pension for me.

00:07:46.730 --> 00:07:48.109
It just not out there.

00:07:48.110 --> 00:07:52.054
There\'s going to be no guarantees
that I\'m going to even have a job.

00:07:52.055 --> 00:07:53.494
For the next ten years

00:07:53.495 --> 00:07:54.919
I want to do these things.

00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:57.300
I\'m going to do them now.

00:07:59.140 --> 00:08:04.219
We have a 43 when we started
and that was unheard of back

00:08:04.220 --> 00:08:08.824
in the seventies there was no one hour age
that was doing it that we could find.

00:08:08.825 --> 00:08:13.219
We started actually left
Ohio October 29th 1994.

00:08:13.220 --> 00:08:15.064
So we\'re starting our third year.

00:08:15.065 --> 00:08:17.629
There\'s plenty of things in a community of

00:08:17.630 --> 00:08:20.599
our beers that although you
translate and you\'ve got

00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:25.984
some sort of bonds and I\'m not sure how best
to describe that that I share together.

00:08:25.985 --> 00:08:31.804
And it\'s been great. That two years there had
been almost no regrets certainly wouldn\'t.

00:08:31.805 --> 00:08:35.010
Can\'t imagine living any
other kinda lifestyle

00:08:39.010 --> 00:08:42.229
This particular park the ranch is one of

00:08:42.230 --> 00:08:50.230
the earliest cooperatively built RV parks
that was authorized by the escape these club.

00:08:50.705 --> 00:08:54.754
And it\'s it\'s studied Lee non-commercial.

00:08:54.755 --> 00:08:59.509
They\'ve was built by the people who have
leases on the lots lifetime and he says on

00:08:59.510 --> 00:09:04.744
the lots and leave you with that for the
lease holders it forms a kind of home base.

00:09:04.745 --> 00:09:10.024
This like other parks also
has a formal social center.

00:09:10.025 --> 00:09:13.549
It has a ranch house which was built by

00:09:13.550 --> 00:09:17.989
the members of the co-op and which
provides them with a place.

00:09:17.990 --> 00:09:23.899
They can have shared meals where they can
have games in the evening where there is

00:09:23.900 --> 00:09:30.840
a library for there\'s a video library all of
it working on a non-commercial honor system.

00:09:33.190 --> 00:09:37.159
It provides a commonplace
where large numbers of

00:09:37.160 --> 00:09:41.340
people can get together it\'s
more or less a public space

00:09:51.310 --> 00:09:56.014
Anytime newcomers come into
this part they ring the bell

00:09:56.015 --> 00:10:00.559
and people who are here whether
they\'re already lease holders or

00:10:00.560 --> 00:10:03.019
whether they\'re just guest will come to

00:10:03.020 --> 00:10:06.214
meet the new people and give them
hugs and the notion of hugging

00:10:06.215 --> 00:10:09.739
a physical contact is quite important in

00:10:09.740 --> 00:10:14.899
the ideology of the organization
and actually is practice Tier.

00:10:14.900 --> 00:10:19.609
I guess the anthropological term that I would
reach for his rituals of incorporation.

00:10:19.610 --> 00:10:25.590
You want to bring people in to
incorporate them into your group.

00:10:30.520 --> 00:10:34.189
And when people come into the park they are

00:10:34.190 --> 00:10:37.879
greeted at what called happy hour
which has nothing to do with

00:10:37.880 --> 00:10:40.909
alcohol but it\'s supposed
to be a statement of we\'re

00:10:40.910 --> 00:10:44.119
happy to be together and they
made it four o\'clock and

00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:48.033
new newcomers are asked to stand
up and identify themselves

00:10:48.034 --> 00:10:50.404
and tell where they\'ve been

00:10:50.405 --> 00:10:53.164
and where they\'re going and how
long they\'re going to be here.

00:10:53.165 --> 00:10:57.979
And what they\'re skipped number is and then
there are formerly greeted homes and jet.

00:10:57.980 --> 00:10:59.880
Oh gee Florida.

00:11:07.180 --> 00:11:09.289
Dublin California

00:11:09.290 --> 00:11:11.674
to be with our son for Thanksgiving

00:11:11.675 --> 00:11:19.675
And we went to a reunion for our
ship from my ship not hers.

00:11:21.790 --> 00:11:25.020
Uss Texas.

00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:35.719
In the beginning we think that are veers
are drawn into the life to seek freedom.

00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:40.579
They\'re getting away from something or
they\'re going towards a kind of freedom.

00:11:40.580 --> 00:11:45.049
But that once out there living
on the road they connect with

00:11:45.050 --> 00:11:50.599
other people and find themselves find
communities or find themselves in community.

00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:54.049
And that over time this
is what keeps them there

00:11:54.050 --> 00:11:57.349
Gives them satisfaction that keeps
people living on the road for

00:11:57.350 --> 00:12:01.279
many years of what people have
told us almost nobody goes on

00:12:01.280 --> 00:12:04.699
the road expecting to find
friends and expecting to find

00:12:04.700 --> 00:12:06.859
community they go on the road to travel and

00:12:06.860 --> 00:12:10.020
they stay on the road because
they find community.

00:12:12.760 --> 00:12:19.860
Leaders realm extension cord I
let your guard needed drill.

00:12:24.220 --> 00:12:28.849
He\'s worked great on the
battery but there you go

00:12:28.850 --> 00:12:32.940
And bad resolves up and this will occur.

00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:38.899
And now you\'ve got to understand is a cheap
Kmart Chucky good you can make it work.

00:12:38.900 --> 00:12:41.509
And just when you\'re done just leave it on

00:12:41.510 --> 00:12:45.600
the backdrop nobody nobody
will take off going back here.

00:12:46.780 --> 00:12:51.409
When my husband fell ill and my son came

00:12:51.410 --> 00:12:55.759
down we were two days away from
this park which is our home park.

00:12:55.760 --> 00:13:00.349
And yet my son said you know
he said I can\'t believe it.

00:13:00.350 --> 00:13:02.179
He said the fellows they
asked me do we need

00:13:02.180 --> 00:13:05.659
propane is there anything
we can do Do you need

00:13:05.660 --> 00:13:11.644
another car do you need this or that
and these are all total strangers

00:13:11.645 --> 00:13:14.494
And that\'s just the way it worked.

00:13:14.495 --> 00:13:17.344
So many beautiful people different.

00:13:17.345 --> 00:13:22.249
Otherwise we if we were sitting on that
little house up there are normal we met

00:13:22.250 --> 00:13:27.274
all these people that to us is just
a nicer easier slower pace of life.

00:13:27.275 --> 00:13:28.969
At this time of life we want.

00:13:28.970 --> 00:13:31.939
We don\'t need to go faster or have.

00:13:31.940 --> 00:13:38.689
We decided to go full time and
because it\'s we feel free that Wayne

00:13:38.690 --> 00:13:42.529
and the main part of it is if if we wake

00:13:42.530 --> 00:13:46.684
up and we don\'t like the weather
or the neighbors we\'re outta here.

00:13:46.685 --> 00:13:52.699
We\'re about telly. And we\'ve been
on a route almost four years now.

00:13:52.700 --> 00:13:59.779
We\'re full timers naturally in our lifestyle
was burned docking may reasonably burned

00:13:59.780 --> 00:14:06.379
OK because we live on a limited income at
a more or we can say well I\'m getting Bs.

00:14:06.380 --> 00:14:14.370
And while we have Edo which
is her lifestyle to cook.

00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:20.389
It\'s funny. You move from
the home into the trailer.

00:14:20.390 --> 00:14:23.759
And this is home now.

00:14:23.760 --> 00:14:26.959
I wouldn\'t want to go back
because I didn\'t have

00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:29.899
enough time to travel when I was working.

00:14:29.900 --> 00:14:35.179
And I think we were a couple
of people who always said

00:14:35.180 --> 00:14:39.169
we never saw enough of the
things we wanted to see

00:14:39.170 --> 00:14:42.709
when we were on a vacation there
was always one more museums

00:14:42.710 --> 00:14:50.449
visit or one more place to go or another
day or two to stay lounging somewhere.

00:14:50.450 --> 00:14:55.234
And we said that when we retired

00:14:55.235 --> 00:15:00.229
we were going to stay in every place
long enough to see everything.

00:15:00.230 --> 00:15:03.210
But unfortunately you don\'t do it.

00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:08.059
There is a joke that goes around.

00:15:08.060 --> 00:15:11.599
Remember talking. The grandmothers
are talking is don\'t call us.

00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:13.054
We\'ll call you that way.

00:15:13.055 --> 00:15:14.539
You don\'t know where we are.

00:15:14.540 --> 00:15:18.134
Because if you knew where we are you\'d
probably put us in a nursing home

00:15:18.135 --> 00:15:21.594
And this is our time to live.

00:15:21.595 --> 00:15:24.144
We didn\'t have that chance to do that.

00:15:24.145 --> 00:15:30.879
In my age you went from college to work to
marriage and you just kept plugin right along.

00:15:30.880 --> 00:15:35.499
Now I\'m doing what my kids
did when they were 18.

00:15:35.500 --> 00:15:40.119
I\'m doing my thing though I had to do it
for the Italian dinner for all of them

00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:46.689
had begun doing roundup since 1992 as
my first roundup came through the gate.

00:15:46.690 --> 00:15:52.134
And somebody said heres a victim
shall help with the supper.

00:15:52.135 --> 00:15:56.319
I had no idea what I was
getting into had no idea

00:15:56.320 --> 00:16:00.659
what they were even talking about had no
idea what this concept around. That was

00:16:00.660 --> 00:16:04.354
I was a victim and that means I was busy.

00:16:04.355 --> 00:16:06.769
And it\'s been the same way every year

00:16:06.770 --> 00:16:11.299
since roundup is really no
fun unless you\'re involved.

00:16:11.300 --> 00:16:14.584
Here we use it as a coming home.

00:16:14.585 --> 00:16:18.484
The group that is Here
comes back to the rich.

00:16:18.485 --> 00:16:23.314
They\'ve all been off wherever
whatever roaming the world.

00:16:23.315 --> 00:16:25.444
They come back here to home.

00:16:25.445 --> 00:16:27.780
And this is roundup.

00:16:30.280 --> 00:16:33.934
We get together were foolish.

00:16:33.935 --> 00:16:37.110
It\'s the settling in for the winter

00:16:49.690 --> 00:16:55.399
One of the things that you\'ll notice in
the rally the Roundup that Jerry you\'re

00:16:55.400 --> 00:17:00.379
seeing here is that people are
acting in very strange ways.

00:17:00.380 --> 00:17:04.234
They\'re one of the things is that
there\'s a bar open every evening

00:17:04.235 --> 00:17:09.034
people are being raucous
there in carnival mood.

00:17:09.035 --> 00:17:12.589
And this is the kind of thing that
you find in a lot of cultures

00:17:12.590 --> 00:17:15.979
it\'s a time when people take timeout if you

00:17:15.980 --> 00:17:19.309
will or nearly many people
just kind of almost frown on

00:17:19.310 --> 00:17:23.569
much alcohol in the park because they say
this is not the way in which we want to live.

00:17:23.570 --> 00:17:26.400
This is Carnival This is time out.

00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:44.149
You also see people here.

00:17:44.150 --> 00:17:50.359
Dressing up in funny costumes and men
dressing and drag women dressing as men.

00:17:50.360 --> 00:17:57.154
And this is something that you find in
other places people were clowning who are

00:17:57.155 --> 00:18:02.850
letting their hair down who are acting in ways
that they never would act in normal time.

00:18:07.060 --> 00:18:15.060
Final costume

00:18:17.360 --> 00:18:19.410
goes to

00:18:22.360 --> 00:18:26.359
a period in which they explore who they are

00:18:26.360 --> 00:18:29.359
and what they do and then
they\'ll go back to normal time.

00:18:29.360 --> 00:18:31.759
And a lot of people once
this thing is over they\'ll

00:18:31.760 --> 00:18:34.189
clear out of the park for
a while because it\'s been

00:18:34.190 --> 00:18:36.829
such an emotional high for
them and because I need to get

00:18:36.830 --> 00:18:40.500
a little space to get back
to who they really are

00:18:45.850 --> 00:18:49.624
I had been alone since before I was 50.

00:18:49.625 --> 00:18:56.089
And my husband died and left
me with for adolescents.

00:18:56.090 --> 00:18:59.644
But I got those I\'ll polish staff.

00:18:59.645 --> 00:19:05.959
And so when they all flew the
Coupe So did I I had driven

00:19:05.960 --> 00:19:13.200
by myself well over 300 thousand miles
in 20 years that I\'ve been driving.

00:19:14.140 --> 00:19:18.229
People tend to travel more
in the early years after

00:19:18.230 --> 00:19:21.784
they go on the road and to
travel less as the years pass

00:19:21.785 --> 00:19:25.939
and eventually either for
personal reasons or for health

00:19:25.940 --> 00:19:31.770
reasons perhaps even financial ones to do
what our views called his hang-up the keys.

00:19:31.960 --> 00:19:36.859
I am not traveling right now
because I\'m waiting to see you

00:19:36.860 --> 00:19:41.149
back and have some cataracts removed
from my eyes. I don\'t see well.

00:19:41.150 --> 00:19:45.814
I have at this point but the
absolute knowledge just was quite

00:19:45.815 --> 00:19:49.669
optimistic that she could

00:19:49.670 --> 00:19:54.154
remove the cataracts and that I wouldn\'t
be able to see in order to drive.

00:19:54.155 --> 00:19:57.709
I love driving that I have
decided that I\'m going to have

00:19:57.710 --> 00:20:04.080
to get something done and hope
hope hope that I can still drive

00:20:05.160 --> 00:20:09.399
We will beginning to notice
that our members were dropping

00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:13.509
out and moving into immobile
home pack or going home with

00:20:13.510 --> 00:20:17.124
their kids were and then we would
get letters from them saying out

00:20:17.125 --> 00:20:21.189
how unhappy they were how much
they missed the RV lifestyle.

00:20:21.190 --> 00:20:24.279
So we got to thinking now
here we are going around

00:20:24.280 --> 00:20:28.539
the country and saying to people
sell your house move into

00:20:28.540 --> 00:20:32.289
an RV and live happily ever
after without stopping to

00:20:32.290 --> 00:20:36.339
think that after a while
we get old we get sick.

00:20:36.340 --> 00:20:41.450
We can no longer drive because with
campaigns driving tests or whatever.

00:20:42.630 --> 00:20:47.024
I had them begin to make plans for myself

00:20:47.025 --> 00:20:52.804
I hadn\'t made any with any definite plans
about where I would finish up my life so

00:20:52.805 --> 00:21:00.109
I decided to come and see if this was something
that I would walk when I was ready for.

00:21:00.110 --> 00:21:06.559
Well I became a little more ready for than
for a little faster than I had hoped to.

00:21:06.560 --> 00:21:11.869
This whole thing has been built by
donations from the escapee membership.

00:21:11.870 --> 00:21:14.959
And we\'re awfully happy to have
you here taking the tour with

00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:19.234
us and Larry I\'m glad to meet you too.

00:21:19.235 --> 00:21:22.800
You\'ll join me we\'ll come this way.

00:21:23.590 --> 00:21:27.709
These beds are here so that
if any of our participants in

00:21:27.710 --> 00:21:33.004
the daytime need to lie down
then they can be in here.

00:21:33.005 --> 00:21:40.519
At this time we have 13 in the program
we want to get it up to 2530.

00:21:40.520 --> 00:21:45.259
As soon as we came they can pack

00:21:45.260 --> 00:21:51.259
there and they can have the security
of someone to check up on them there.

00:21:51.260 --> 00:21:53.509
They have someone that will come in and do

00:21:53.510 --> 00:21:56.149
their house cleaning follow
them do their laundry

00:21:56.150 --> 00:22:01.804
fought them cook their meals problem or provide
Neil store them in one sense or another

00:22:01.805 --> 00:22:09.634
When I take this home because my husband
is disabled and pretty much turbid fast.

00:22:09.635 --> 00:22:13.650
So I come over and get the
meal and take it back.

00:22:28.780 --> 00:22:33.049
This is the nurses station when
we have a nurse at work here.

00:22:33.050 --> 00:22:37.294
Marlin Stout who are
volunteer traveling nurse.

00:22:37.295 --> 00:22:44.730
For water Bob Martin video every day you\'d
find all right we\'ll see you in the center.

00:22:45.150 --> 00:22:50.049
They can continue living in the Robby
when maybe they would have had to go

00:22:50.050 --> 00:22:54.429
into a nursing home or
something was DJs house.

00:22:54.430 --> 00:23:00.924
But the nice part about it is they can
park their army here and have assistance

00:23:00.925 --> 00:23:08.364
where through the care facility
or in the data okay good morning.

00:23:08.365 --> 00:23:16.365
Okay. But what brings us

00:23:18.100 --> 00:23:21.744
here is because the wife
is in a situation of

00:23:21.745 --> 00:23:27.464
Parkinson\'s disease and she\'s in
about the fourth or fifth stage

00:23:27.465 --> 00:23:32.899
It\'s main that we come from California we

00:23:32.900 --> 00:23:38.569
call in a sense we were skips and
they said come right on over.

00:23:38.570 --> 00:23:43.489
And so we packed up I flew the
Wife fan and I came over setup

00:23:43.490 --> 00:23:48.439
and then she came in July
first I believe it was.

00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:51.349
And the way I look at it.

00:23:51.350 --> 00:23:56.224
This is a place where people
really can feel comfortable.

00:23:56.225 --> 00:23:59.839
And that\'s how I like it.

00:23:59.840 --> 00:24:03.919
I\'ll take the timeline. And
there\'s going to be enough for

00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:09.184
the people that made the Utilize
facilities as time goes on

00:24:09.185 --> 00:24:14.419
What do you say it took to get warm and
blue bands like there a $100 okay.

00:24:14.420 --> 00:24:17.689
How about we didn\'t want to wow
you just go right in there.

00:24:17.690 --> 00:24:21.019
Have you been donating
before donated before.

00:24:21.020 --> 00:24:23.430
Alright Then you go right.

00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:30.904
People who\'ve thoroughly
enjoy this way of life.

00:24:30.905 --> 00:24:36.169
I\'ve come to believe they\'re a something
that may be a set of gene someplace.

00:24:36.170 --> 00:24:39.979
I don\'t know where it is but there no
matter where you go no matter what

00:24:39.980 --> 00:24:44.164
kind of group they\'re seeing no
matter what the economic level is.

00:24:44.165 --> 00:24:49.549
There\'s something different about
people who enjoy this kind of life.

00:24:49.550 --> 00:24:52.324
More than more than just simply

00:24:52.325 --> 00:24:56.644
Kind of like it\'s something
very deep seeded.

00:24:56.645 --> 00:25:02.850
I\'m sure there must be because I have
never yet met a camper that I didn\'t like
