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.

Visitors

We had 2 visitors today. First was this little fellow.

I was standing on our patio when this bat flew by me. I thought at first it was a large butterfly but realized its body was too fat for a butterfly so I followed it around the corner. Sure enough, it was a little bat. Not sure why it was flying around at 8:00a.

The second visitor was my sister. She emailed me to see if we were in town because she was passing through on her way to Lake Powell. She could only stay for about an hour since they had over 300 miles ahead of them and it was already noon. It sure was good to see her since the last time I saw her was about 3 years ago. She was in her motorhome pulling a boat with her friend. Looks like they are having fun.

The weather was perfect today. It was in the low 90s and just a little breeze to keep the heat from building up. Looks like just a reprieve though since the temps will be over 100 again by Wednesday. Sure was nice.

    Good thing that Bat didn't land on your head..Does your Sister put the Boat in with the MH? I have always wondered how they do that.

    Yes she does put the boat in with her motorhome. I used to launch my boat with my class C too. Kind of scary especially, on some of the steep ramps.
