“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…

Food is My Love Language: Week 2 – Casseroles
Did you end up making burgers? I did! Casseroles are great for those seasons that you need to feed quite a few and/or are busy enough that leftovers need to be a full healthy meal that can be served up quickly. I have 3 recipes to share with you that have turned into some of…

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…

Food is My Love Language: Week 1 – Burgers
I love food. Not quite as much as Guy Fieri, though I enjoying trying new things (mostly). Let’s be honest, I enjoy trying new recipes and cooking at home more than just trying new restaurants. There is something to be said about taking something that looks mouth-watering in the magazine picture and making it your…

Sumac Update
During our full experience into the area, I had a close encounter with fallen Sumac leaves. It has been 2 weeks, so I wanted to give an update. The first week was absolute hell. I won’t go back through the details, but it was an unpleasant experience. The second week I was pumped full of…

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…
