The last few days, the poor wiener dogs have been couped up. Robert and I were out for several hours both last Friday and Saturday night. Then Sunday through Tuesday, we haven’t had much of a chance to get the dogs out but just walks around the RV park. When we lived in a house, …
Washer Woes – Part 1
The other night, Robert went off to work and I planned to do some office work and hang out with the dogs. I decided to do a load of laundry while I worked. All was fine and dandy, the washer was doing it’s thing. I had set it not to dry as I was going to …
Little Friend
While enjoying the evening and sitting outside, this little fella hopped up on our table and stayed with us for quite a while as Robert cooked on the little Coleman grill just a few feet away.
Oscar, what did you do?
Traveling with dogs, you want to be careful that they don’t push any buttons or mess with any knobs. When we first got our RV, I was concerned about the air brake button. It’s located just above the driver’s side arm rest and to release the brake, you push down. I was convinced that …
Working in the RV
I’ve been very fortunate that my job has transitioned to where I can pretty much work from anywhere. It’s a mindset that I’m still getting used to. I’m so geared to drive into an office and work the traditional daily work hours. Actually, it seems as though I’d end up putting in 50-60 hour work …
Officially Moved In
Over the weekend, we turned in our keys to our rental house and parked our Alfa SeeYa at our new home in a RV park in Largo, FL. It wasn’t a far move, but it’s now official, we are full-timers. I’m glad that we took the “training wheel” path and started living in the RV …
A lighter load…downsizing to live in our RV
After weeks of sorting, this weekend was our big sale. We feel like a big weight has been lifted. Over the past several weeks, we have been moving into our 38′ Alfa SeeYa Motor Coach and camping in the back yard. We wanted plenty of time to see what fit and what we needed to get …
Backyard Camping
Call us crazy, but in our quest to transition our lives to full-time RVers, we moved into our RV in our backyard before we even moved out of our rental house. When we got back from our maiden voyage at the end of June, we had the RV parked in the back yard and we got back …
Our Maiden Voyage…10 states in 12 days…
Our plan…10 states in 12 days…Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, back to Florida. Almost worked, it really took us 14 days. We pulled out of St. Petersburg, FL the evening of June 14th. Our plan was to move my daughter, Megan, to Missouri while at the same time taking …
Decision to Full-Time RVing
We are about to embark on a whole new life, RV style! Probably two years ago, Robert and I began talking about RVs. We love to travel together. Over the past several years, we’ve just hopped in the car and taken impromtu road trips. At first we were discussing how great it would be to …
