“It Just…Broke”
As a couple, Greg and I have settled into the chores we are more comfortable with and lucky for us, all the chores still get done. I’m not a fan of doing dishes, but Greg doesn’t mind. I enjoy doing laundry and he doesn’t. It all works out… until it doesn’t. I had the great…

Shell-less Turtle
Shell-less Turtle It’s been too long for us not to send out an update, but in our defense, we have been out of sorts. Can you tell what is missing here? Yes, it’s Maverick. Maverick has been gone for 7 weeks! Pearl is missing her other half! Back in May, we shared that Maverick needed…

Maverick is Headed Back for Service
We understood that buying new, we would have to deal with all the quirks of manufacturing issues. However, this has been a bit more dramatic in scope than we originally planned. From the broken refrigerator, to the leak behind the shower wall, we have learned a TON about RV ownership. While wintering in Florida this…

Ride the Wave
The mountain wave, that is. I BRIEFLY mentioned the unique weather here on the side of Mt. Tabor, but we had another HUGE weather event and Greg has done a lot more research that we wanted to share. What is a mountain wave? That’s a great question. A mountain wave is when wind hits a…

Full-time RVing… it’s not an extra long vacation
…much to my disappointment, lol. I had ‘retired’ and was all in for this months-long vacation, that hasn’t happened yet. However, Greg was still working, so I thought we were doing this wrong. We have now been a part of this lifestyle for 6 months, and have learned so much from experience and from others.…

Epic Fail?
I failed at retirement. I have come to the conclusion that retirement is harder than working. Well, I guess I only “kinda” retired, so I only “kinda” failed. Greg didn’t retire at all, so he is still working 8-10 hour days. It’s not fun being retired without him! I can only read so much without…

The 48-Point Turn
Kidding, but not really. How many times did I shift into reverse??? I honestly lost track. We have moved into Old Mountain Campground and are very excited about living at the base of the mountain with access to hiking trails directly from the campground. With that being said, the roads getting into the campsite were…

Back “Home” to TN
We left the farm on February 4th and I already miss it. Well, not the mosquitos, but I was able to spend some quality time chatting with Aunt Lynn and then whatever Uncle Harry and Uncle Jim were up to that day. I’ll miss that for sure. Greg also got to spend some quality time…

She Pulls the Camper?!
Yes, she does. Do you know how many times Greg and I get that question when people either realize who’s driving the truck or if they ask? Why is that so shocking? I guess I have only personally met a couple women who pull long rigs like Maverick, and they are FIERCE women. If that…

Maverick’s Hidden Swimming Pool
We’ve had a few issues with our new rig, but when are their not growing pains with something new and untested. This is the first year of the rear-kitchen model and we have found that having the fridge on the very end makes securing it more challenging. So challenging that it broke within the first…
