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.

Another NASCAR race

We arrived today in Goodyear Arizona. This is about 20 minutes from Phoenix International Raceway where we will be spending most of our waking hours for the Phoenix NASCAR race this weekend. We will be meeting our daughter and friends in the infield for the race activities. Susan is excited as usual. We also came with some friends on their madden voyage in their new fifth wheel trailer and first time at a NASCAR event. We got settled in and puttered around the trailer checking out the systems and making sure everything works. They didn’t have a chance to do much because the trailer arrived just before the trip.
We are still without a refrigerator but luckily I bought the little one to use until ours gets fixed. It traveled in its little corner of the motorhome real well and even stayed cold with no power for the 3 hour ride here. I called the repair place just before we left and they called Dometic. Dometic says they got the part Monday and shipped it out. They say it should arrive by this Friday or Monday. Maybe next week we will have refrigeration again.
