We wanted to have a “shakedown” trip before our longer excursions this summer. We had stayed here a few years ago in our 5th Wheel RV. Disney’s Fort Wilderness was relatively close and we know from experience a few years ago, awesome! The sites are well laid out, fairly spacious, and well maintained. Below is […]
Towing the Jeep
We completed a major to-do item this week. We wanted to be able to tow the Jeep behind the motorhome on our trips. This will allow us to have a vehicle to get around the area when we stop at a campground. We wanted to be able to ride together in-route to destinations, versus one […]
It’s not all “Rainbows and Butterflies”
People think the RV lifestyle is great – and it is most of the time. But, real life does happen. Some people think that full time RVing is like being on vacation all the time and you get to see cool places every day and have not a care in the world. That is not […]
Florida Day Trip – Fantasy of Flight
We took some time away from getting the Motorhome ready for travel to take a day trip to a place that we have had on our list for some time. There is a air museum close to our home base that contains an impressive collection of vintage aircraft and a few vehicles. Kermit Weeks owns […]
RV Organization
Moving into a new RV is a bigger task than most expect it to be. The amount of available storage is much less than a typical “sticks and bricks” house. You really do need to limit the amount of “things” you load into your new home. One note on the new motorhome versus our last […]
Non-RV Travel
We went on a non-RV trip this week. We traveled to Las Vegas as my wife attended a work related conference. It was a good and safe trip. It also reinforced to us that our preferred method of travel is via RV. As long as your obey the traffic laws, there are really no security […]
Initial Motorhome Mods and Other Project...
It has been a busy week. Lots of fun, and exciting Motorhome tasks – some of which (most of which) are a lot of hard work as well. One item that we have been doing throughout the week is learning. Even though we had a 5th wheel before, this new RV is much more advanced […]
It’s here, it’s here, it’s finally here!
We picked up the motorhome yesterday. It looks really great. We are very pleased. The pickup process was good. I asked that they clean some more salt from the trip down from the rig – including the roof. They were happy to oblige. It fit well into our port house. Neighbors helped us get it […]
Sunrise!
What is your favorite time of day?? For me it is Sunrise. I have been an early riser for the majority of my adult life. I enjoy the quiet, alone time before anyone else is up. Just me, a cup of coffee, and my thoughts (and sometimes YouTube RV Videos 🙂 ). What is it […]
Downsizing Tips
In 2018 we downsized from a 4800+ square foot house to a <1000 square foot house. We had lived in that big house about 12 years, and raised 2 kids in it. It had a lot of memories, and a lot of stuff – junk in some cases. We did this downsizing effort in a […]
