The Sallee's

Hi. We are Barbara and Kenny Sallee a.k.a Barbie and Ken. We are both disabled Vietnam veterans making the best of our lives.

We are also full-time RVers. In other words we live and travel in our Recreational Vehicle. We have been living and traveling in our home on wheels, that we have named OWFISH, since November 2003. We also cruise and fish Lake Michigan on our vintage Chris-Craft Roamer, the m/v Shangri-La.

Barbara was born in Norfolk, Virgina and Kenny was born in Barstow, California. We first met in May 1971 in Sacramento, California and it was love at first sight . Kenny was in the Army at that time and was sent off to Vietnam in July of that year.

After Kenny returned from Vietnam our lives had changed and we went in different directions. Barbara went into the Navy, married and had two children. Kenny continued a carrer in the Army, married and had one child. We met again and rekindled our relationship in July 1998 and were married on August 1st, 2002.

After Kenny was released from a Veterans Medical Center in July 2001, where he spent 3 months rehabilitating from a military service connected illness, we first bought and lived in a mobile home in Norman, Oklahoma. In July 2003 we bought our Windsor motorhome and started traveling. In August 2004 we sold our mobile home and became "full-timers" living in our RV. On August 1st, 2005 we became co-owners of the Shangri-La with Frank and Jill Welti of Sheboygan, Wisconsin. On August 1st, 2007 we became the sole owners of the Shangri-La.
