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.

Homosassa Springs Wildlife Preserve

Tomorrow is another travel day. This is going to be an easy 1 hour and 45 minute drive down to Orlando so we will not be in a hurry to get an early start. They have a wash rack here and one at the new location. I haven't decided if I want to wash the Aerbus here or there. I guess I will see what the weather is like in the morning.

We had a real good stay here at Rock Crusher Canyon. Today we visited the Homosassa Springs Wildlife Preserve. This is similar to the Living Deserts we visited in Arizona and New Mexico. Here we found not only the bears, panthers, snakes, and birds, but also Manatees and alligators. Our visit started out with a 20 minute boat ride down a wildlife channel where we saw birds, snakes, turtles, and alligators IN THE WILD. These are not placed there nor are they in captivity. They are in the wild. We were lucky enough to see these on the trip to the preserve because we only saw birds on the way back.
