Ok by now...I can safely assume that anyone who stops by knows that I long to live by the sea! It's where my heart and soul belong. HOWEVER my husband does not necessarily share my sentiment....but I think I may have found a solution!!!

I am always thinking about, planning for and saving for our retirement...never mind that I am only 34 years old! I am kind of one of those people that plans for and budgets for every little thing...even though I don't always stay totally on the budget!!! I know retirement is my only way outta here during our super long, dark, cold winters! He won't move permanently and I have to have some reprive.....Sooo...I have decided that we should buy a houseboat! Cheaper than house on the water and oh so cute~

We can stay there for 3 months out of the year and rent it out for the rest of the time.

What do you think?!!

What do they say about pipe dreams??? But I say...well if you don't have a plan and dreams than what do you have?

Key West houseboats....you can bet I'm going to find these when we go in December flickr
Just look how colorful~

I didn't even know such things existed~

I mean they even have loungers and adirondacks!! It's like a whole new possibility opened up for retirement...or before:)

Just look how cute the "gardens" are! It's just so perfect...no yard work... just hang out and take care of your potted gardens~

I could definatley get into this lifestyle~

I would just sit and enjoy my vino watching the boats go by! How perfect~

Well there you have it...now you'll know where to find me when I retire!!!

If you know of anyone who lives on a houseboat or you happen to live on a houseboat, I'd love to hear from you!!!

Have a happy day~
