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.

Whew where do I start

We arrived at our friend’s house in Kalispell Montana around noon on Sunday the 4th. What a nice place they have. We got parked next to their house and connected with full hookups including cable TV if we wanted it. I was able to shoot through the trees and get my satellite TV so I didn’t need the cable. After getting set up we headed over to the Kalispell Raceway for a short track race. Landen just had a ball and snagged a couple of hats that were thrown into the crowd. After that we headed back to prepare for the 4th celebration. Fireworks are legal here so between the guests at our friend’s party we had plenty of fireworks. It doesn’t get dark until close to 11:00p here so we had to wait a while to fire them off. This morning we packed up and headed into Glacier National Park. Even though the weather didn’t co-operate too well we still had a great time. We went part way up the Going To The Sun Highway but decided not to go to the top since the top was covered in clouds. Even so we saw some pretty awesome sights. We stopped by the lake to have lunch and let Landen do a little fishing just in time for a big thunderstorm to blow through. After we got back Landen was looking for something to do. Give a 9 year old kid a riding mower and he is good for the rest of the day. He did about an acre before another storm blew through.
