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.

Over 100


Temperatures and boats speeds were over 100 this weekend as the annual poker run came to town. These guys just blew everyone away on Lake Havasu. If you are not familiar with a Poker Run, this is where you go from location to location picking up a poker card and a clue where the next card is. After 5 stops and 5 cards, the one with the best poker hand wins. It is actually an excuse to get out on the lake and haul… well, you know what. Some of these boats can run over 160 mph.

I doubt the winnings even come close to what it costs these guys for the weekend with all the fuel these engines go through.

As mentioned above, we are experiencing temps over 100 now. It is getting about time to head on out of here for cooler weather. We are now running 1 air 24 hours and both during the day. It is staying real nice and cool inside the coach but who wants to sit inside all day. The coach that was next to me, which gave me my afternoon shade, has left. The good side is, I got my wide-open view back.
