Gone RVing! - We walked all the way to Mexico for lunch!




From the site: Gone RVing! - We walked all the way to Mexico for lunch!

On January 8th we walked across the bridge to Nuevo Progreso, Mexico with our friends Peter and Margaret. There is no interaction with any kind of immigration or customs when you go in, but coming out is a different story.  We wandered in and out of a few stores and pharmacies and then went for lunch at Red Snapper. On the way back to the bridge we bought some vanilla and Margaret bought some ointment. we will go back again before we leave "The Valley" as there are a few other things I wish to get. Here are some photos of our day.The Rio Grande River.Half way acrossBeggars below the bridgeA very grand entrance to Mexico.Lots of doctor, dentists, pharmacies and orthodontistsA lot of Americans and Canadians come across for cheap tre ...Read more...

From the site: Our Awesome Travels - A bit of Quartzsite cruising before the crowds begin, more perfect weather.

Where are we today ? La Posa West Quartzsite Arizona          Nothing like being here in the desert, lotsa room to roam, real quiet, maybe a bit of road noise, but we could eliminate that by moving further from the road.we have a beautiful sunrise this morning        The reason we like this area is, we are right here, can walk or ride our bikes to lotsa vendors. We know from experience when to go to the dump station so we conserve real well. There is lots that we like to check out. Rice Ranch, Tyson Wells, the Quartzsite Marketplace to name a few, and at this time of year more new vendors arriving every day.         First thing I made trip to check out the downtown a ...Read more...

RV Days with Jessica and Harry - Rainy Day Trip to New Orleans




From the site: RV Days with Jessica and Harry - Rainy Day Trip to New Orleans

Location: New Orleans, LA (High 63, Low 46) We knew when we planned to leave Robertsdale, AL today that we were going to have a rainy traveling day. We’d been watching the weather forecasts for a few days, and although it was going to be wet, it didn’t look like it was going to be really windy or have torrential downpours. So we decided to keep this as our moving day, so we would have tomorrow’s sunshine to get out and check out the city.     It wasn’t a great day for taking pictures, but I did manage to get a gray shot of Mobile, AL as we passed it….     …and a couple shots as we were entering our two new states for the day…             &n ...Read more...

From the site: Weaselmouth - Blue Ridge Chairworks Camping Chairs. Hmmmm…

I don’t really know how to write this post, I’ve been struggling.  But in the end, the Highland Deck Chair from Blue Ridge Chairworks isn’t for me, but it might be for you depending on what you’re looking for!Let’s start at the beginning…We’ve been searching for the perfect camping chairs for years and saw this chair on www.remodelista.com in an article about folding camp-style chairs. We checked out the website and really liked the options available. We wanted something that was well-made, would last a long time, and was easy to fold and store. Since the company is in Asheville, NC and their products are American made — that was also a bonus (however, the fabric used has a Made in ...Read more...

RV Life On Wheels - Canadian Visitors today...




From the site: RV Life On Wheels - Canadian Visitors today...

Another great Florida day in Frostproof, mid 70's in temperatures with some sun! Great day to have visitors. Mary and Terry live up in Gravenhurst, where Judy and I used to live for 10 years. We retired from our jobs in Gravenhurst. Mary worked with Judy out at the local Federal Prison, called Beaver Creek. They both kind of act like they been locked up half their life! (just kidding...) Terry recently retired as well, selling his share in a Company that bottled lots of water, and dealt in Coke Products. They both are really enjoying retirement, especially Terry who had some recent health challenges. It was sure great to see them, as we had not seen them for a while. They are down at a Condo in the Tampa Bay Area and are loving ...Read more...

Workin' RVers - settling in




From the site: Workin' RVers - settling in

We have been getting comfortable here in Dade City. Our park is really nice, all the roads are paved, there is a nice pool (if it warms up enough to use it!), all of our neighbors have been super nice and there is a large club house where the park hosts events. They have clipboards hanging inside the club house where you can sign up for different events. I decided to sign up for a golf outing for this morning. Rudee dropped me off at the golf course and I was able to hook up with a couple of the other guys. Clyde and Lee were my partners and we all three hit it off right away. I was pretty nervous since I had not played a round of golf in 15 years! The practice I have been doing at the range paid off and I really didn't do too bad. I h ...Read more...

The Roadrunner Chronicles - Mr. Bob's Screwdrivers




From the site: The Roadrunner Chronicles - Mr. Bob's Screwdrivers

Pam and I left Seal Beach, CA and returned to the FamCamp at March ARB in Moreno Valley, CA.  It was a two hour ride and we had no problems (e.g. red 'Stop Engine' lights) at all.  The Roadrunner ran great and it was an uneventful and quite comfortable ride.So we spent the day with Bob and Sue in Redlands and basically 'hung out'.  Which is always fun to do. Bob is a unique guy and is very handy.  I've never met one who can do as many things as he can.  He is a true 'fixer' and figures things out or invents a way to get the job done.  A real problem solver.  Most problems are not problems to him.One of the most fascinating things about him is his garage.  His garage has always been a thing of wonder. ...Read more...
