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.

Rodeo anyone

The rain let up enough today that we went to the rodeo. Bruce and Sherri, friends we have met along the way, came by today and we all went to the Rodeo at Rawhide Western Town in Scottsdale. What a great time. This rodeo was particularly interesting because of all the rain we have had. The rodeo ring was a real muddy swamp. The riders that fell and the ropers got quite a mud bath. Tomorrow we will meet up with Bruce and Sherri again for more fun.

We may be loosing our San Diego channels. I have heard that once you are about 250 miles from your local area that you will be out of the foot print of the satellite. Well, I have noticed, since we are about 300 miles away, the signal for our San Diego channels are getting weaker. Last night during a good rain we lost signal altogether. The rest of the satellite channels were good but we lost our San Diego channels. I will either have to change to the Los Angeles channels or cancel the local channels. I was hopping we could keep up on San Diego all over the country.
