Oh, as for the plan for the day work camping is no longer viable... I turn my rental apartment in to my own. By then the mortgage will be satisfied and all I will need to cover is taxes. Since there will still be rental income from the other unit on property I will have a nice little income from that to pay the taxes, cover expenses and buy groceries.
I can sell the rig and get a couple grand out of it and I can drive my current pickup until it drives no more... then pay cash for another older one or get some little car just to get around. The house is in the downtown area of a fairly large Midwestern city so most everything I will need is right close at hand and there is an Air Force base and a large VA hospital only a few miles away.
I will likely die broke but I have no kids to leave anything to and there will still be the house for the nieces. After all, you can not take it with you when you leave this earth so it is best to enjoy it while you have it.
