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.

Alarm Clock?

Yes, this morning I woke to the sound of an alarm clock. We took an all day tour of DC and had to be on the bus by 7:10am. I forgot there even was a 7:00am.
The tour was totally awesome. We all loaded into a 40 foot tour bus and the driver did a monumental job of weaving through the streets of DC. We not only visited DC but went across the Potomac River to Mount Vernon to Visit George Washington's home. We also stopped at the Arlington Cemetery to see President Kennedy's gravesite and witnessed the changing of the guard at the tomb of the unknowns. I was quite impressed. We then went back over to DC and stopped at a number of monuments. The above photo is, of course, the Iwo Jima Memorial. It was a full day.
