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.

Washington DC

I tell you what, the back roads sure make the drive more enjoyable. The first 30 minutes and the last 30 minutes of our drive today was Interstate. Once we got off the interstate you could just feel the relaxation set in. It is also nice because you can stop at the road side stands, gas stations, and stores without having to get off the interstate.

Damn! OK, so I nailed a tree backing into our site. It could have been a lot worse. A broken tail light lens is all the damage I did. The campground we are at has a well stocked RV parts store and I found an exact match. What luck!

Man it's hot here. It is over 90 and probably over 90% humidity. Thank god for 2 air conditioners. They work so well, after a short time, we had to turn one off since it was getting rather chilly inside. I understand though that it will cool down considerably when the remainder of tropical storm Arlene moves through here.
