Our New House

It was brought to my attention that we haven’t updated our Blog since 2013. Since we have become stagnant and haven’t really traveled for a while I didn’t have much of interest to post. Not that our life isn’t interesting, there just isn’t much RV Travel going on.

Well recently we have turned another page in our lives. We decided since we like our lifestyle so much that buying a house wasn’t in our plans. However we have pretty much outgrown the RV so…

We bought a Park Model home in the same resort where we have lived for the last 11 years in the motor home. If you are not familiar with a Park Model, it is a small 400 square foot manufactured home. Ours however is a bit more than a simple park model. First off ours is set in the ground so it is ground level, then a 200 square foot addition was added making it 600 square foot overall and the whole thing is stuccoed and the roof is tiled. There is also a 117 square foot building on the property, which serves as a laundry room and a shop. This building is attached to the house by a covered patio with outdoor kitchen. Along with the real residential appliances they topped it off with an air conditioner that can turn the house into a meat locker in the 120-degree Arizona summers. You can see more photos by clicking on the link in the left column.

I have added a link to the photos of our house HERE.

So, although we are keeping the motor home, it looks like we are not Fulltimers anymore.

Best wishes to all our readers and I hope your travels are as enjoyable as ours.

I will leave the Blog up because I know others enjoy reading about our travels.

Palm Springs



Well we made it to Palm Springs. To be honest, yesterday, about noon, would have been a better day to travel. Instead I paid a visit to the local Urgent Care Center in Temecula. I had enough of this finger and decided I needed to know if it was broken. After a Doctors exam and 3 X-Rays, turns out there are no fractures so I am just going to have to grin and bare it until it heals. Anyway, the drive here was good. A little drizzle on the way and a detour around a flood, but we made it. Had to drive through a small river across the road and got a nice layer of mud on the Saturn. After hooking up I cleaned the mud off the Saturn and the Motorhome so we're all clean again.

I wish I did a little research on the parks around here. We are at Happy Traveler RV Park, on a recommendation, and are happy but it is a little tight and pricey. Also there is no internet hookup so I will be limited to my free nights and weekends for internet through the cell phone. The good thing is, it is within walking distance to down town Palm Springs. Yeah, Like we're really going to walk.
