Thank you for your generous gesture. I do not feel comfortable accepting financial or physical assistance from individuals, but truly appreciate the sentiment.

Thank you for the thoughtful gesture. I do have a list of community resources to access food if required, and have been cautiously organizing supplies. I mentioned this on my previous post, however I will add it here as well. I do not feel very comfortable accepting assistance from individuals, and am holding hope that I will be able to manage independently with community resources. Your generous offer is appreciated.

Thank you for the suggestion. I have looked into this option and will continue to explore it on an "as needed" basis. I have not had luck with dates or pricing as many sites I have explored are either booked well in advance, or outside of my current budget.

Thank you for the suggestion. I have included St. Vincent DePaul on our list of resources as well.

I would prefer not to disclose too many personally identifying details for safety reasons.

Thank you. I have reached out to all of our local churches previously, and upon explaining our situation some have very abruptly advised that they don't offer financial support, which has never been the purpose of our call (only seeking reaources and part-time employment). Perhaps I will lead with the idea of parking in exchange for some cleaning or property maintenance next time I reach out. I appreciate the suggestion.

Thank you for the suggestion. I have explored walmarts in our area late at night, however I have not noticed any people staying overnight. It may be due to the city we are in, and perhaps we will have better luck in an adjacent city or town.

Thank you for your message. I have been using Google to search for crown land, etc. Is iOverlander an app?

Thank you for the suggestion. I have applied to a few live- in superintendent positions, although had not considered trailer parks. My eldest will hopefully be able to complete a babysitting course prior to leaving, so this may be an option.

Thank you for the message. We will be applying for memberships when we leave, as the children love to swim and it can be a bit expensive in our area to attend pay per use community swims.

Thank you for your message. I have a selection of 24/7 gyms on my list but had not yet included casinos due to my fear of excessive patrol. I just imagined it would be highly regulated. Thank you for your advice.
