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.

I hate LA

Did I ever say I hate Las Angeles? I think I have. Well Not really LA but the LA traffic. We didn’t even get into the heart of it and still it’s a mess. As we were traveling down an LA freeway a piece of something went whizzing across the front of the motorhome, hit the side of the truck next to us and bounced back and made a few marks on the side of the motorhome. We made it to Ontario where we will be staying at the Elks Lodge. We will be driving the car to the California Motor Speedway for NASCAR from here. It’s a good thing we got here when we did because it filled up shortly after we setup. There are a few that will probably be pulling out as soon as they start letting them into the infield of the speedway.

    Last year, on my way to the speedway, a full length mirror fell off a truck in front of me...broke into a million tiny pieces and flew up all over the front of the motorhome. I couldn't swerve to avoid it...hey, it's a motorhome...so I was picking pieces out of my radiator, off my wiper blades, between my cab roof and the bed, even had a bunch on the roof. Good times.
