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.

St Augustine


Click on photo to enlarge

St. Augustine was fun. We spent the day visiting the sights. We thought the day was going to be a bust. We started by visiting the Whetstone Chocolate Factory and found they were no longer conducting tours. Then it was off to Tom's Fruit and Produce Stand, they no longer have fruits and produce. It is now a tourist gift stand. We then headed over to the Alligator Farm and found they wanted $18.00 each to view the gators, we passed on that one. One that is real impressive is the Castillo De San Marcos. This is a fort that was built from 1672 to 1695. The walls are 18 feet thick and 30 feet high. It is part of the National Park systems and we got to use our National Park Pass to see it. It is a must see if in the area. There are also other historic sights to see in the city. Being the Oldest city in America, the whole place is full of history.
