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.

We have contact

As I mentioned in the last post, I was not sure we would have contact to the outside world while in Sedona. We are now in Sedona and have contact. We have cell coverage and Internet. We arrived this morning after a short 1-½ drive and are staying at the Sedona Elks Lodge.


This photo is a view from our front window

We have a view of all the named formations in Sedona. This photo is one called Coffeepot. If you look at the right side you can see the spout of the coffeepot. I have got to say, Sedona is NOT RV friendly . There is only 1 real RV Park in Sedona and NO; I mean absolutely NO sewer dumpsites in all of Sedona. The only RV Park has full hookups but no dump station and will not let anyone dump at one of their sites. The closest dump is 20 miles away in Cottonwood, the opposite direction we are going. We may not stay the 4 nights as planned because of this. There is quite a grade for 12 miles out of here and I don’t like the idea of hauling 1000lbs of waist up that hill.
