On The Road Adventures

With everything on shut down until this week I found the time to clean out the new closet where everything had just been shoved in temporarily and here is something interesting that I found. Here were the rates for admission in 1975. At the bottom of this sheet it says you can board your pet…

We made it to Oregon from Indio California in 3 days and 2 nights with one quick stop for lunch in Carson City Nevada to see our friends Jo and Johanna. Thanks for the lovely salad and quiche. Here is one of the RV Parks where we spent the night. The town was named after…

The trip to Arizona to get the coach fixed was a success and everything got fixed correctly. While they worked on the coach we paid a visit to Stan and Karen at their lovely Scottsdale home. We met their cute new rescue dog who does not like to walk and prefers to be carried. We…

Today we left for the Phoenix area for a few days to get our slide on the motor home fixed. A slide room is an add-on to a coach that extends its side wall to create more interior living space.  The seal in the slide started to come out so it will take about 12 man hours to get…

Yesterday we went to Costco for the senior hour and arrived at 7:30am. The line was about a mile long and went all throughout the parking lot. It took us almost an hour before we were able to get into the store. I guess the whole county where we are is full of seniors. Our…

Two nights ago we experienced our first earthquake ever. It was scary. It sounded like a freight train coming and then the whole building shook. Aussie who is so calm during thunderstorms was freaked out and knew something was not right. It only registered 4.9 but for someone who has never been through one it…

Lucky for us we are in warm climate with daily sunshine in a gated community so its easy for us to get out often. We worry about our friends who are stuck in their home without any social contact but that is necessary at this critical time. Aussie gets several walk a day around the…

Our RV resort is becoming quite quiet as many people have left to head home early, especially the Canadians. Usually we have parties and events but all has stopped and even our restaurant has shut down and we don’t know if the people who are running it will every come back since many have quit…

We made it back to California and got all our winter ski and snow shoe gear put away to storage just in time before all the craziness started. The times are crazy now. The first thing I did when we got back was head to the store for groceries and most of the aisles looked…
