About Me

We were married in September 2005. We're best friends, and we love traveling and exploring new places. We like sci-fi movies and watching the history channel. Our little boy was born February 1, 2010. He is named Jeff Jr. or JJ. Our daughter Moira was born July 28, 2011. We have a cat named Munchkin. Jeff is a career military officer, and Karen works for a family services program for the Army. We live in Monterey, California. We are making this blog for our family and friends who we miss and want to share our life with.

Resort living on a dime

The movers called and our apartment should be empty by October 21st, so we have to find housing until November 6th. The army will reimburse us at a later date, but we aren't holding our breath for the money. Karen's dad suggested checking out Skyauction.com to find hotel deals. As it turns out, skyauction.com auctions timeshares that people don't/can't use, for the price of the auction +$195 tax.

We won two, one week stays in different resorts for about $200 each. Both resorts are on the beach and look very nice. October 22 - 29 we are staying at the Hollywood Beach Tower, in a one bedroom suite with mini kitchen. HAHA, we won the auction for $1 + tax

October 29 - November 5 we are staying at the Sea Gardens Beach and Tennis Resort in a two bedroom suite with a full kitchen. This room was slightly more -- $15 + tax

So far this looks good. We are getting excited to live the life of the rich and famous on the beach.

Love to all,
Karen and Jeff
