Many RV’s have little awning over slideouts to keep debris and water off the slideout. These little awnings are called a “topper”. A topper automatically deploys when the slideout is extended. I have three of these toppers with one slideout being covered by the main patio awning. The topper fabric on my driver side living… [Read More]

Bath Time
Bath time, again… I last gave my home a good bath back in June, I think. While certainly not filthy, it was time for another bath. Most state parks and campgrounds frown on the typical form of home bathing – using a hose to shower it down – so I’ve reverted to spit baths. At… [Read More]
Thar She SNOWS
Keeping the current theme going… We’ve got some snow! The last couple days of storms here in central New Mexico were mostly just wind – lots of wind. However; I see some snow on the nearby mountains! I suspect winter may be getting close.

Many folks think they can live or spend extended time in their RV and have all the comforts of home. Sorry, it just isn’t so…. Technology is moving fast. It is possible that… [Read More]
Flying Again
The past couple weeks I have been back in my old home – Mid Valley Airpark. My friends have treated me well and I’ve done enough flying to satisfy the urge. Thank you guys! I am truly blessed with all the wonderful friends that I have. Seeing friends all summer in Montana and then returning… [Read More]
