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.

Bad weather on The Outer Banks

It’s raining and the wind has been blustery from yesterday afternoon through all day today. We did nothing. Well I actually spent a lot of today tracking down and temporally patching a leak in one of my windows. Hopefully I found the problem. I am not sure yet because the rain slowed down shortly after I found what I think is the problem. On top of all that, the power went out in the area for about 4 hours, but we live in a self contained motorhome, who needs power, we can make our own. Since we have not been out and about, I have no pictures to post.
As I mentioned, our cell company has let us down by deciding to not serve this area. This means we still have phone service (extended network) but no internet service. I have found a weak wireless signal here so I can get on the internet sporadically. Don’t know where it is coming from and I really don’t care. So if you don’t hear from me for a while, I have lost the signal. We move up to Virginia on Monday and should be back in network then.
