I just sold my motor home and bought a 5th wheel trailer and plan on living in it year round, when I set up for full time living, should I put any thing on the ground under the tires ?
I have some heavy duty rubber mats that were under a floor in a school gym, they are about 1 inch thick, and thought I might put them under the tires when I park the unit, also would put the same mats on both sides of the wooden blocks of 3inch by 9 inch blocks of wood for the jacks
Any ideas ?

If it is going to sit a number of years without moving the tires will be gone away, and should be replaced before you move it, so I would not worry about them beyond covers. What you might want to do is buy four really heavy duty jack stands and place them under the frame at the four corners of the spring hangers.

If over time a tire goes flat, then most rear jacks are not strong enough for the weight of the trailer.

A plus is that the unit would be very stable with the load on the front landing gear, the four jack stands, and the rear jacks.

Which Lighthouse RV Park, I see several around the country?

Depending on weather, you might want to skirt it if the park allows that.
