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.

Las Vegas

Since it is only 3 hours to Las Vegas we didn’t hurry this morning. Even so, we got on the road a little after 8:00a which got us to Vegas around 11:00a. It was already 100 and then some degrees. I decided to upgrade our site from a 30 amp site to a 50 amp site so we can run both our roof airs and everything else at the same time. One thing I messed up on though is I got a site with the windshield facing the afternoon sun. Even though I got a sunscreen for the windshield, it’s like a big ol’ heater with the sun shinning on it. Landen and I took off to Fry’s Electronics to get a memory card for our new cell phone. Not sure if you have ever been to a Fry’s but they all have some sort of a theme. Well of course this one had a casino theme. We did nothing today. Tomorrow we are going to take Landen to Circus Circus.
