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.

Digger’s Dungeon


Click on photo to enlarge

Those of you that are Monster Truck fans will get a kick out of this. As we were running through Kill Devil Hills we came across Digger's Dungeon which is the Race Shop of Grave Digger. I had to make a big U turn and head back to check it out. They had a couple of Grave Diggers in the shop being worked on, or built. Digger's Dungeon is a gift shop filled with bits and pieces of his crashed trucks. Behind the counter in Digger's Dungeon is a big window that looks directly into the engine shop. They were putting together engines and had one monster of an engine on the dyno. Just out of curiosity I asked where Dennis is today and the girl behind the counter said, "He is back there in the shop somewhere." I looked but didn't se him. Being the Grave Digger fan I have been for 20 years, this was a real treat for me.
