Quartzsite & New Hobby, By Kevin
It is very interesting in our travels that we run into things that interest us. We have attended two of the biggest RV shows - not by planning, it just happened we were nearby. This happened again to support my new hobby. My new hobby is HAM or amateur radio. My Uncle helped me get... Continue Reading →
Where Are U.S. Leafy Veggies Grown For Winter Eating?
Travel Day to Yuma, Arizona. We were surprised there wasn’t a lot of traffic. We thought we would see a ton of RVs heading south. Just south of Quartzsite was all new area to us. It was fun to see the BLM where people are boondocking. (Boondocking is camping with no hook ups to water,... Continue Reading →
How Much Money On Those Walls?
Kevin was on the phone the next morning to find someone to come look at the bedroom slide on HOWE (footnote 1) and see what needed to be done to fix it. (That story was posted last Friday.) He found one that could come that day. The guy did and Kevin felt he is knowledgable... Continue Reading →
Murphy’s Law Visits On Our Two Longest-Miles Travel Days
The drive north of Dallas and Fort Worth was very smooth with no traffic. I can’t imagine how long it would take to drive through here during the day and/or rush hour. The sun came up behind us and it was glorious to see it rise! So long since we have seen that. Continuing on,... Continue Reading →

X Marks the Spot if You Have the Wiggles
Howe (our trailer - Home on Wheels) has the wiggles. With proper chocks under the wheels, and the stabilizers down, it still feels wiggly when walking in it. Stabilizers on smaller travel trailers are not levelers. They are designed to stabilize the trailer once it is leveled. Even with Howe leveled and stabilized, you can... Continue Reading →
