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.

Laughlin Nevada

It’s pretty warm out here. It got to 101 today out here in Laughlin Nevada today and it’s supposed to get hotter. We are in the Avi Casino RV Park, which is now a KOA. We have become real PIA RVers lately. I hope it’s not becoming a trend, it’s not my nature. First when we had to wait for 2 hours for them to move a trailer out of our site in Moabi, we figured we would just move on to Laughlin so I asked for my money back. They would only give back one of the two nights so we stayed one and left this morning. Here in Laughlin, our site had a big hole right where I wanted to put the rear tire so I went back to the office to request a different site. I asked which side the sun sets on so we could get afternoon shade on our patio and they gave me a site where we get full afternoon sun. Another trip to the office to request another site. Fortunately these people are a lot friendlier than the folks at Moabi. It really was their mess-up anyway. So tomorrow we are changing sites again. We actually visited 3 states today. We started our trip in California, where gas was $3.99 by the way, and crossed over the Colorado river at needles into Arizona then back over the river into Nevada, where gas is $3.09. During the next week we will be bouncing between Nevada and Arizona several times.
