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.

Jacksonville

We have made our way to Jacksonville Florida today. When we woke this morning in St. Augustine there was thunder, lightning and rain. We took the coast route and the drive was good except portions of the road were rough. It could be due to storm damage. We got about half way to Jacksonville and suddenly, as if we went through a invisible wall, the rain suddenly stopped. I mean the road wasn't even wet. How weird. It's a good thing we took advantage of our time in St. Augustine because there doesn't seem to be much going on in Jacksonville. The campground we are at is great. We got a spot right on the lake. I wish they would design the sites so we could drive straight in instead of back in only. That way we would have a great view of the lake out our front window. Instead we have a great view out our bedroom window. It is raining tonight. I love the sound of the rain falling on the roof of the motorhome.
The motorhome has been running good since I replaced the burnt plug wire again. I am glad that is all in was. Fortunately replacing the wire was a since. I simply raised the front of the motorhome with the levelers, turned the wheels all the way to the right and sat in the wheel well while replacing the wire. It wasn't even as hot as I thought since I just shut it down from driving a while.
