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.

Refer Madness

No it’s not what you think. It’s the refrigerator. Yes we still are without our refrigerator. We thought we were making progress. I found a place that will do the repair job and Dometic agreed to sell us the part for ½ price. That’s all well and good however apparently Dometic doesn’t even have the part to sell at any price. They are expecting to get the part from their vendor by April 7th and said it probably wouldn’t get to us until the 18th.

So today I went out and bought a small refrigerator that will fit in a corner of the motorhome until ours is fixed. We will just sell the little one once we are satisfied ours is fixed and working.

The resort is clearing out. The Snowbirds are heading back home. This is the time of year we get people coming and going as they use the resort as a stopover on their way home.
I heard on the radio yesterday the Britney Spears is going to work here in Lake Havasu as a cocktail waitress. They say her Dad said she needs to live a normal live for a while and told her to get a job. She will be starting this Friday for minimum wage. Since yesterday was April Fools day, this could just be a joke.
There is a new feature on our web site. As you may know we run a small banner of ads by Google. They run down the left column and consist of 4 or 5 ads. Actually they are websites that contain more information on things I post about. Now they have added scroll buttons at the top of the ads that allow you to scroll through many ads. Try it out. Maybe you’ll find something of interest.
