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.

A day at the Zoo

Today Susan and I took our grandson, Landen, to the San Diego Zoo. It was a belated birthday present plus we wanted to do something special with him before we hit the road again. It was a long day for all of us but we had a great time.
I think Landen’s favorite thing was the Skifari ride. This is a cable car ride from one side of the park to the other. We all got a kick out of the Primates and Big Cats too. By the end of the day we were pretty worn out. I don’t think Landen even made it out of the parking lot before he was fast asleep in the back seat of the car.
We got stuck in the infamous San Diego traffic and crawled about 10 mph for 20 miles. I took us an extra hour to get home. Once we pulled up to the motorhome, Landen woke and said, you took a shortcut. Yeah, he was asleep the whole trip so it went pretty fast for him.
