Full Time RV Living–Our Rig is FOR SALE

You read it right. . .today we are officially putting our truck and fifth wheel up FOR SALE!

If you know anyone who is looking for a great deal. . .all the pics and information on the Truck and Fifth Wheel

can be found here:  EBay Motors

WHY?  you ask. . .

well. . .here’s the reason. . .and of course you know they

never want to give you diddly on a trade in. . .

so we’re gonna try our hand at selling our rig ourselves. . .uggghhhh!

To answer the age old RV question. . .why a motor home instead of the fifth wheel

From the beginning, we always said we wanted to be in a motor home by the time we were sixty. . .not sure why we decided on that time frame. . .I guess we thought we would be old by then. . .ya know good and well when your're 47 that sixty looks really, really old. . .now that we are almost there it's looking better and better. . .ha. . .but I digress!

Anyway. . .since we can't afford the rig we want. . .this is going to be a transition rig for the next few years. . .which should tell the tale for us. . .which is better. . .fifth wheel?. . .or motor home? Ha Ha. . .time will tell!

Wish us luck. . .oh, and a few prayers would not go amiss. . .

Til next time,

Janice

Full Time RV Living–Leaves, Leaves and More Leaves

Dave raked leaves for the last two days. . .

never fear, I was busy doing other stuff. . .like cooking his dinner. . .ha ha

scooping up the piles with the front end loader

a little assistance

completely filled the trailer and tied a tarp over it. . .

Ranger Dan will come and carry it away tomorrow. . .

All that exercise and fresh air. . .and a fabulous view. . .awesome!

Since there’s nothing exciting to tell you, I’ll share a few pics. . .

an unusual spider web or something. . .

(have no idea what creature created this) that we saw

while picking up trash one day this week. . .

a pod of white pelicans. . .we are on their migratory route from Canada. . .

a great blue heron. . .

this little devil of a kingfisher. . .he is so fast,

I still haven’t gotten a good shot of him. . .

but I shall prevail. . .eventually!

Mr Mischevious. . .I’m sure he can’t wait for me to put out my birdfeeders

our view from the rig early Saturday morning. . .

and of course. . .my current favorite. . .

Until next time,

Janice

Full Time RV Living–Hmmmm. . .Campground Etiquette?

Well. . .as RV’ers I’m sure we’re all aware of the

Respect other people’s space. . .don’t walk through another camper’s area. . .

Full Time RV Living–Busy Busy Holiday Weekend in the Volunteer World

Wow. . .it’s been busy around here. . .

The Thanksgiving Day group totaled about 75. . .as did the group on Saturday. . .

waiting for today’s crew to show.

They’ve all done a marvelous job of cleaning up. . .

so all we need to do afterwards is swab out the bathrooms. . .

clean little hand prints, and nose prints off the glass. . .

Full Time RV Living–Holiday Time

We are well into our second week in our volunteer position. . .

and all is well. . .we take care of the activities center.

Three big groups coming in for the holiday weekend. 

We’re all set for the group that will arrive Thanksgiving Day. . .

when they get done, 

we’ll set up for the next group coming in on Saturday. . .

and then a different group on Sunday. . .

All the folks have just been great. . .clean up, and pick up after themselves. . .absolutely wonderful. . .let’s hope that trend holds!

We wish you all a wonderful, thanks filled holiday with family and friends. . .

Full Time RV Living–Making Your Blog Link Clickable

In all of my studies about blogging, I’ve learned. . .

Simple is better. . .make your blog as simple as possible to find. . .

and always include your name and blog link in your correspondence.

I was advised of all of this by a very successful RV Blogger with ten years of experience. . .

I think they probably know what they are talking about. . .
