Catch-up

Since our last blog in 2011, everyone probably thought we fell off the grid/earth. However we are still alive and kicking and still fulltime RVing.

A brief summary of the last 5 years:

We continued to work as workampers at Chalk Creek Campground in Nathrop, CO during their camping seasons May thru September in the years 2012 & 2013.  

We worked as workampers at Silverline Resort in Winthrop, WA during their camping seasons May thru September in the years 2014 & 2015.


                                  Many of you might remember the fires in Washington.
Needless to say the fires were close. Night picture shows all the fires on the ridge across the lake.


We worked as workampers at Indian Campground in Buffalo, WY during their camping season May thru September in 2016


We visited Crazy Woman Canyon just outside of Buffalo. No fires here.
Spent an evening being entertained by a jam session at the Occidental Hotel.






We were snowbirds and wintered at Val Vista Villages in Mesa, AZ from November thru February 2010 thru 2016.

We spent March of every year traveling to attend the FCRV (Family Campers and RVer's) Retiree Rally.  They were located in Tallahassee FL, Rayne & Houma LA, and Canton TX.


Year 2017 brought new changes in the air.

We purchased land in Campground of the Rockies (CORA) with full hookups for the 5th wheel.  It is located 16 miles south of Fairplay, CO on US 285. We plan on spending the summers here instead of working as workampers and it also has extra hookups for visiting RVer's

In January and February, we spent the rest of our winter in Sunlight Travel Trailer RV park in McAllen, TX.

We went on our very first cruise in February.  We left Galveston, TX on cruise ship Carnival Freedom.  We visited the ports of Cozumel Mexico, Belize City Belize, Mahogany Bay Roatan Honduras.

So what is in the future?  Why did I update the blog?  What else is new?

In June, we will start a another new adventure and travel with Adventure Caravans on a 59 day tour to Alaska.  That tour does not include the days to travel to get the meeting place or the days needed to travel from the final stop to get back home. Many people have requested we do a blog for the trip. We will try to update the blog along the way in a timely manner with pictures. Not 5 years from now. More to come of our new property too.
