Thirteen Feet and Nine Inches Bridge Story

June 29, 2023 Since you asked, the 13’9” bridge story. When we first bought our RV at Couch’s RVs in Ohio in February of 2021, it was during an Arctic Vortex. We didn’t feel comfortable bringing the RV home in the awful road conditions we encountered on the way to Ohio. We asked Couch’s if […]

Reorganizing and More Downsizing

June 15, 2023 While we are in Golden, we’ve been reorganizing our basement storage. We put some items in our storage unit and donated others. I also went through the kitchen and removed items I hadn’t used in a while. Bruce removed the outside television and gave it to a friend. He plans to use […]

Regular Living Task – Water Heater Cleaning

May 4, 2023 We have a Truma On-demand Water Heater. It has a small reservoir, but most of the water is heated on-demand. This means I can have a hot water shower until either the holding tank fills up or we run out of propane. Neither is something I want to do, having once been […]

Waking Up to Water Dripping on the Bed

March 28, 2023 Last night, we had very strong thunderstorms with heavy rainfall with wind and thunder. At 4:00 am this morning, we woke to the sound of running water in the RV. Bruce jumped up and turned on the bedroom lights. When he opened the bedroom door, he discovered Nox lying up against the […]

Washing the RV

March 3, 2023 On Wednesday (March 1), we decided the weather was perfect for washing the RV. It was overcast with no wind. Bruce went to the office to pay the $10 fee to wash the RV. They told him they would add it to next month’s bill. We brought out our Aero Cosmetics Kit […]

Electrical Problems in the RV

January 20, 2023 On our way to Florida, we noticed the inverter wasn’t running. At a rest stop, Bruce pulled the battery tray out and checked the wiring. When he pushed the tray back into its compartment, the inverter started working. Once we got to the RV park, our site was located under the live […]

So Cold!

December 24, 2022 We had a low of 12 degrees F last night. The furnace ran most of the night to keep us warm. We also ran the resistance heaters to keep everything warm. To prepare for the cold, we used our heated water hose. To help prevent the waterlines from freezing in the TV, […]

A Fright in the Night

December 23, 2022 Last night, around 2:30 am, a loud bang and a shaking of the RV woke us up. We knew it wasn’t Santa coming to visit early. We quickly got dressed to see what had happened. Bruce thought someone may have hit us. As we came out into the living room, Nox raced […]

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. […]
