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.

It’s been raining all year

I think that every stop we have made this year with the exception of about 3 or 4, it has rained. Fortunately the rain has usually come during the late afternoon so driving has not been a problem since we are off the road before 2:00p. At least the rain has given me the chance to locate all the leaks and fix them, yes I have had a few. Since we don’t drive during the rain, keeping the motorhome and car clean has not been a problem. Usually the rain washes the dirt away. Today I spent half the day washing and cleaning the motorhome and car to remove the road grime that the rain didn’t wash away. When I find a park that will let you wash the rig, I take advantage of it. Most parks do not allow washing.
Tomorrow we will be heading for West Yellowstone. We are looking forward to the drive that follows the Gillian River and is suppose to be very scenic. And there are no Interstates.
