Sudden Wind Storm with Awnings Out

July 16, 2022 Our campsite faces east, so we get stunning views of Lake Chicot with the window shades up. It also means the morning sun in the windows, heating up the RV. To keep the RV cooler, I’ve been putting out the awning on sunny mornings to prevent the sun from directly shinning into […]

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 […]

Bathroom Sink Drain Cleaning

May 30, 2022 While we were in Alabama, our bathroom sink started draining very slowly. We would have a similar type of problem in the house. This is when having someone who is handy is very useful. Bruce open up the cabinet underneath the sink and realized he couldn’t get the bucket underneath the bathroom […]

Wildlife Encounter

March 17, 2022 Bruce took Nox for her morning walk while I took my shower. When he got back, he told me that they had a wildlife encounter. He noticed a small bird with a twig fly into the truck wheel well. His first thought was the bird might be trying to build a nest […]

We Have Cold Water!

January 7, 2022 When I was getting ready for bed, the RV didn’t have cold running water. A few minutes later, Bruce started getting ready for bed and he tried the cold water. It started out as a trickle, then it ran normally. His delighted shout could be heard throughout the RV. He checked the […]

A Concussion, Really?

December 18, 2021 A while back, I walked into my RV and not through the door. See https://retirementrvdream.com/2021/11/13/just-ouch-how-can-i-walk-into-rv/ I have been having headaches since I hit my head. With it being over a month, I was still having headaches, I decided I should go see my doctor. She informed me that I had a concussion […]

Showing Off the RV

November 24, 2021 Since we’ve moved back to Dakota Ridge RV Park in Golden, CO, which is only four miles away from the office, many of my friends from work have wanted to stop by and see the RV. Most of my friends have stopped by at lunch, toured the RV, and then we have […]

Cold Weather Has Arrived

November 18, 2021 We’ve had a very warm fall this year in the Denver metro area of Colorado. We would have a few days here and there that would dip down below just freezing at night, but mostly the days were sunny and comfortable, in the 70s and 60s F, with lows in the 50s […]

Just Ouch! How Can I Walk Into RV?

November 12, 2021 Yesterday, Bruce and I were getting ready to put the insulated ends onto our heated water hose. I put on my jacket and hat. My hat was getting blown off by the wind, so I was leaning down to keep the hat from blowing off. At the same time, I was adjusting […]
