Can we make it?

We began camping/traveling some years ago and now that we are older would like to do it full time, but the big 'HOWEVER' is that we have only $1200 total to live on. (SS) Is that possible?
What's the best way? Motorhome or tagalong? Our house isn't worth much and selling it could be a big mistake if we took ill. (part way there now) We are very torn.
We have made fast friends in Alaska and would LOVE to move there part of the year. I suffer from both heat and cold problems. Doctors TOLD me not to join the military and then to retire a few years ago because of the 'disease' (yet unnamed) and that was after being a logger for 20+ years.. hummm.
If anyone out there knows a lot of cheap living tricks let me know. Daughter is still a newlywed and isn't ready for us to 'barge' in on her.
Not to repeat myself but our house is falling down and we need to know soon. We cannot afford to fix it and we cannot stay there forever.
