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.

Quiet again

For the last couple of weeks this place has been busy. There have been big groups here, one right after another. Today everyone left, with the exception of us 5 regulars. It sure is nice to have the peace and quiet back. I am not sure how long it will last but we are only here until Thursday anyway. I spent the day cleaning up the motorhome. It sure is a mess with all the dirt around here. Hopefully it will stay relatively clean for a few days. I need to take the car to the car wash tomorrow. It needs a bath REAL bad too. When we get back to Lake Havasu, I plan to get the motorhome buffed out and detailed and the carpets shampooed. Susan was a bit unhappy about the big spider sitting in it’s web in the corner of the bedroom the other morning so the inside will get a real good cleaning too.

  1. Dan sounds like your really itching to get going. In a way I envy you and Susan.. Not sure if it will help but I put some Dog (flea collar pieces in each of the storage bays). I used some Mother's hand wax on the car last week and what great stuff that is. Take Care my friend and drive safe.

  2. Yes, I have heard of the flee collar thing before. Just never tried it.
