New Step Covers for Outside RV Steps

December 17, 2023 Soon after we got the RV, we covered the outside steps with carpet. Nox had slipped on the steps in March of 2021 and we didn’t want to risk her falling again due to slippery steps. The steps were also slippery for Bruce and me as well. The carpet has worn out […]

New Shock Installed

October 11, 2023 Today, I helped Bruce with the installation of the new shock. I didn’t do much. Bruce needed to lift the RV off the wheel enough to take off the rear utility side wheel to get to the top of the shock for installation. I watched the RV wheel and yelled over to […]

Adding the Pennsylvania Sticker to the Map

October 3, 2023 During the evening of September 13 (Wednesday) at French Creek State Park, we add the Pennsylvania state stickers to our maps. Bruce added the state sticker to the map on the slide and I added the state sticker to the map on the freezer drawer.

Adding My Blog Site URL and Logo to the RV

August 29, 2023 At the FROG Rally, I ordered my blog logo and blog site URL stickers to put on our RV. I am really pleased with how they came out. First, I cleaned the area to place the stickers. I brought out the level and a tape measure to make sure the lettering lined […]

Ant Invasions

November 6, 2022 I don’t normally mind ants, as long as they aren’t the evil fire ants, but I don’t like them in my RV. We’ve had three ant invasions since we started RVing. The first invasion was while we were at Poverty Point State Park in Louisiana. The ants climbed up the water hose […]

Along the Shores of Lake Allatoona in Georgia

October 10, 2022 We packed up the RV today for a reasonably short drive. I use rolled towels to keep items from falling over in the fridge. I put the rolled towels on the shelves and then lock the fridge. (I had a couple of problems with tension rods, so I no longer use them. […]

I’m Melting! I’m Melting!

September 23, 2022 On Tuesday (September 20), the Samsung repairman came out to fix the problem with the convection microwave oven. (https://retirementrvdream.com/2022/09/17/update-on-convection-microwave-oven-problem/) He replaced the connector to the wire that had melted and started burning. Bruce got the convection microwave oven back in place with a little help from me. On Wednesday (September 21), I […]

Bolting Down the Motorcycle Wheel Dock

Updated June 15, 2022 to include pictures June 3, 2022 You often read about Bruce and the things we do. This post was written by Bruce on Facebook and I thought I would share it. “I don’t think I’ve posted about our mobile adventures in a while, so here goes. One problem we’ve encountered is […]

New State Sticker for Maps

April 22, 2022 One of the things RVers often do, is get a map so they can put sticker of the states they have visited. Each RVer makes up their rules about when they can add a sticker. Our rule is pretty simple. We have to spend the night in the state in our RV […]

Put Up Day Clock

February 27, 2022 Today, I spent some time going through my retirement gifts from my co-workers. I rediscovered the keychain given to me. I also picked out a place to install the Day Clock my director gave me. The Day Clock looks very nice on my hall wall!
