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.

Devils tower South Dakota


Today was an easy and enjoyable drive. We left Rapid City around 10:00a and arrived at Devils Tower around noon. What a sight as we came over the hill and saw Devils Tower. The town consists of a very small post office, small gift store with minimal grocery supplies and a snack bar, and the KOA RV Park. The KOA is the biggest thing in town with the campground two gift shops and a restaurant. This is a nice KOA and Devils Tower is right in our back yard. This is the campground where the movie Encounters of the Third Kind was filmed. Every night just after dark they show the movie on the back wall of the office. You can sit and watch the movie and look over at the Tower. Tomorrow we are going into the National Park to get a closer look.
