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.

Still on the road to Niagara

We decided after checking with the Good Sam Trip Planner and finding there is a Mountain Advisory (steep grades) on the route we were going to take, that we would go 100 miles out of our way and stick to the lesser inclines. This new route took us to Erie Ohio where we had already made reservations for the 4th of July weekend. There are 2 campgrounds in the area and since we had the reservations with KOA we decided we would try the other. Well the KOA looked better so we checked in. What I didn’t realize is this KOA has no sewer hookup in the whole park. This is not a problem for tonight except for the $45 a night fee for 30 amp electric and water only, not even cable TV. I couldn’t even setup the Sat Dish because of the trees. I canceled our 5 nights stay for the 4th and found a nicer park just 30 minutes down the road. They have no sewer sites available but is a much nicer park.
