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.

The appointment is made

Yesterday I got a call from the RV Service Center that our refrigerator cooling unit is in. She said she will let the shop know and they will call me to make an appointment. Well, today around 3:00p I got tired of waiting and gave them a call. We made an appointment for next Tuesday. We decided tomorrow (Friday) would not be good incase they didn’t get the job done because I would be without the motorhome for the weekend. They say Monday is too hectic so we made it for Tuesday. Susan and I are both worried that they will mess up something trying to get it out to work on it. I took plenty of pictures of the cabinets, wood floors and ceiling. I made note of all the existing dings, yeah we do have a few dings. Hopefully they will surprise us and do the job right the first time and with no damage. This doesn’t come at a very good time because Susan’s parents are coming to visit us next week. We thought about putting it off but we really don’t want to wait any longer.
The wind has slowed down a bit here. It was still too gusty to put the awnings out today. Maybe tomorrow it will be nice.
