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.

Traveling at last

Tomorrow morning we will be back on the road. We were supposed to leave today but we don't like traveling on the weekends and it was supposed to be raining all day. Even though it is only about 2 ½ hours to Jacksonville from here I figures it will take us about 5 hours. That is because we are going to stay off the interstate and take the coast route. Since I don't drive for more than 3 hours at a time, we will be stopping over for a couple of nights between here and there. I hope to make it to St. Augustine. I would like to spend a couple of days there.

Our stay here at Orlando Florida was just great. We got to spend time with family that live in the area and Susan's parents flew out from California also. There is so much to do in this area that a month just isn't enough. But I just have to get back on the road. There is always next time. I think the next time through we will limit our stay to 1 to 2 weeks and head on down to the keys. I found a campground right at the end of the keys. That would be cool. The campground we are at is very nice. I was undecided over 2 in the area but with some advice from friends on the internet I chose Orlando Winter Gardens. Good choice.
