Fulltime RV Living Adventures

Colorado Springs and now

I spent last week in Colorado Springs, CO visiting two of my boys. The visit was fantastic!  The leaving seems to get more and more difficult.  Sure was great to see them and get caught up on their lives. I decided last week that it was time to get a roommate.  The boys and I… [Read More]

Tracking Down an Oil Leak??

I think I’ve previously mentioned that I have (had??) an oil leak on the passenger side of the engine compartment. One shop looked at it and they thought they had found a loose power steering hose connection that was the source. I drove it a few hundred miles and it seemed “better”. Of course, I… [Read More]

Railroad, mountain biking, solar, and sink

Not a tremendous amount going on this week. A number of storms have blown thru. Some of them have brought some serious wind. It seems that Missy is not prone to rolling over in “high” winds – not to be confused with tornado or hurricane force wind. 🙂 I had a super great visit from… [Read More]

This Week: Lebanon Hills Campground

A few firsts…

Missy and I spent a good part of last week at at Lebanon Hills campground in Eagan, MN. Right about here (in the spot where the small gray dot is): I’ve stayed here before as this location is the nearest campground to my home office. It is a nice campground but can be difficult to… [Read More]

Review: Cottonwood RV Park Bluff Utah

I made a quick stop at the Cottonwood RV Park while passing thru Bluff Utah late in October and found a very nice establishment! Nancy is the operator and is very nice and welcoming. The park itself is well suited for big rigs and the pull thru spots are spacious and very easy to get… [Read More]

Utah Sunset

I’m currently residing near Blanding, UT and experiencing some wonderful light shows! These photos were of last night’s sunset. I also happened to grab a photo of friends, Mike and Jan, returning from their days adventure in the Utah backcountry. <
