RVing is NOT free of honey-do's

WE READ A LOT OF GOOD BLOGS written by folks who are just starting their life of "fulltiming" and others who are many years into their adventure.  It is interesting to me that there are good people who choose to park in state and county parks or just wherever they land and not necessarily be highly social.  Some have pets and some just name their RV and associated parts.  They all have interesting and adventure-some lives and we really enjoy reading about their adventures.  Some are listed on the side of our blog.

WE HEAD OUT TODAY TO DO "NECESSARY THINGS"  as they come up in our version of fulltiming.  We have had a "going flat" tire on the outside tire of our dually tires in the back of the rig.  We had our service plan come out and fill it up but, that did not fix it.  So, today we drove down the mountain to have it fixed.  It was still somewhat aired and the second tire supported the ride to WalMart. We had an appointment and they had Herb park the rig behind the repair bays.  Two very nice hispanic guys came out, used a jacklift and removed the tire.  After checking for leaks, they decided that the extension valve was faulty.  They put it all back together and sent us off with no charges.  Nice folks in Mesquite NV at our neighborhood WalMart.

PROPANE PROBLEMS...OR NOT in our case.  This class C has a very small propane tank.  10 gallons is not much.  Even a lowly propane grill tank contains 5 gallons.  We have our ways of conserving.  We use an electric catalytic space heater (oxygen sparing) to warm up the interior if it is cold.  We do have central heat, but keep it set at 60 degrees.  Also, we only turn on our hot water heater when needed and before showers.  Solar panels are a tempting addition, but we are not sure if we would be good "boondockers".

How did he get up there?

BOO BOO THE CAT is very set in his ways and any change will send him into explorer mode.  Today, we cleaned and decorated a little and he was in on the fun.  More to come...H, C, and Boo too
