Today we took the ladies to the Deer Farm here in Williams. They have more than just deer but as you walk through the gate a herd of about 50 deer start heading for you. They think you have food for them. After they find out you don’t they disperse with the exception of a couple that will follow you around hoping you will put a quarter in one of these machines full of corn. If you do insert a quarter and turn the crank,
you have to fight for the corn because they will eat it right out of the shoot. We had fun just walking around looking at all the animals they have such as Llamas, Bison, Reindeer, peacocks, a camel and more. They also have a nice gift shop.
After the deer farm we to a cruise over to the Grand Canyon Harley Davidson dealer where
I found this tree made of motorcycle mufflers. Next door is the Roadhouse Grill where you grill your own food. It was pretty cool. Then we took a drive down the road to Ash Fork for something to do. There is NOT MUCH in Ash Fork except Flagstone.
Lots and lots of Flagstone. We found out that Ash Fork is the Flagstone Capitol of the World. They mine it here.

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.
