Our Journey in the Full-Time RV Life
Our Journey in the Full-Time RV Life
We awoke very early on Tuesday, May 17th, to travel to Idaho, on our way to Colorado. We drove on US 20 east through the Malheur River valley. The canyon drive was very pretty next to the river with rounded hills surrounding us. We had several long waits at road construction zones, transitioned from Pacific …
On the morning of Saturday, April 30th, we decided to get a good breakfast at the Taprock Northwest Grill (https://taprock.com/), right on the Rogue River. Martha had the Bacon Jam Breakfast Burger and Walt enjoyed the Lodge Benedict. We then went to browse at the Grant’s Pass Glass Forge on G Street (https://glassforge.com/). Martha made …
We left Yosemite RV Resort on Sunday, April 17th, and traveled north to Auburn, CA. Our son-in-law, Greg Pauly’s parents, Matt and Georgia live in Auburn, and they invited us to visit with them. Matt is 80 and Georgia is 77, so they have been waiting longer than us (ages 64 and 63) to become …
We have been derelict in our duty in keeping our travel blog up. We got to Tuscon the first of November and got very involved in all the activities they had to offer, pickleball, swimming, bocci ball, hiking, biking, concerts, dances, get togethers with new friends and much more. I also had surgery on my …
We left Dockweiler RV Park, our California beach home for three weeks on Tuesday, April 5th, headed north. We were glad to leave LA traffic, but we had one last taste of it on the 405 headed north. As we drove through the 405 cut into the San Fernando Valley, we resisted the urge to …
We left Voyager RV Resort in Tucson on Monday, March 14th, in the words of Arlo Guthrie – “Heading into Los Angeles, carrying a couple of Puppies”. All our ‘hood friends waved goodbye to us, and we headed up Interstate 10. We took the Interstate 8/Arizona 85 – Phoenix bypass, thru Gila Bend, AZ, (only …
Our Winter Camp Tucson We were in “winter camp” at Voyager RV Resort for 4 ½ half months (11/1/21 to 3/14/22). Our original plans were to leave at the end of February and go to the redwood forest near Santa Cruz, California, for two weeks in early March. However, when we learned that Brenna’s due …
We spent Saturday, October 23rd, getting our camp set up, dog pen setup, lights put up on the pen and on the fence to the side of the campsite and the projector that illuminates the trees. We don’t always put up lights and the projector, but they make the campsite glow and are nice to …
Lake Mead RV Resort The Lake Mead RV Resort is one of the campgrounds of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area (https://www.nps.gov/lake/index.htm), on Boulder Beach. Walt and his family had stayed at the Boulder Beach campground, adjacent to the RV Resort, back in 1966. This was in July, and it was so hot that they …
Tuesday, October 12th, brought more rain and colder temperatures. We all spent much of the day in our motorhome (a little crowded with 5 people) and played board games – Yahtzee. We also walked into Springdale to sightsee. Walt traveled to Las Vegas on Wednesday, October 13th, the nearest major airport, 160 miles away, to …
