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.

Backtrack

I don’t like backtracking but we did today. We went from Kalispell back down through Missoula and are now in Lolo, still in Montana. Even though we backtracked it was still worth it because it is a beautiful drive. We passed by Flathead Lake, which is the largest fresh water lake west of the Mississippi river. It took us almost a half hour just to drive from the north shore to the south shore. We are now at the Lolo Square Dance center and campground.

This is a nice place tucked under pine trees. The folks here are really nice. I was concerned about getting satellite reception but the guy from the office came out and pointed up between some trees and said if I pointed the dish at that house on the hill I should get it. He was right on and I hade it setup in no time. Landen was hoping to see some square dancing tonight but they only do that on the weekends. Tonight was round dancing so we went over to the dance hall to check it out. Landen thought that was pretty cool and had all the ladies asking him to dance. He turned them down but told me he wanted to dance.

We are heading for the hill in Kamiah Idaho tomorrow. Last time we were up there our Verizon phone was useless. Since I use an aircard from Verizon this site might not get updated for a few days. So if you don’t see any posts we are probably OK but just not able to post any updates.
