Been on the road over 230 days!!

Post by mga60tw on 10/24/2011, 4:28 am

Well the wife and I have been on the road for over 230 days and still like each other:)) That must say something about our marriage or as most of our friends say "your wife is a saint"
We are now in Buckeye, AZ just outside Phoenix for the month of October. It was time to fly home for our daughters wedding and to relax. We found we really needed to stop for awhile.
The Wildcat is doing great and has not given us a problem other than the slide need adjusting. It is a 2006 model and maybe they made them better back then:) but it has been great. We are very pleased with this Wildcat!!
We are planning the remainder of our trip by heading to Sedona, Carlsbad, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Galveston and then Birmingham, AL for Christmas. It will be a busy 2 months but hopefully a fun one. WE are counting on nice warm weather until we get back to Florida in January.

The blog is still up if anyone wants to check in, but not much posted this month. http://mga60tw.blogspot.com/

I read this on one of the forums.

Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change ... retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting! Waiting will only leave us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

Happy travels, Tom and Suzanne

Sounds great, you are a little ahead of us we have actually been on the road since July 5th. Sounds like you are at the campground I plan on staying at in January after we leave here to go west, how do you like it there in Buckeye, do you recommend that campground?

Safe travels

If you are talking about Leaf Verde it is nice and the people are friendly and helpful. It is an open lot with good wifi and antenna tv, you get all the basic channels(nbc,cbs,abc) plus others, no espn but their lounge has it. For the price it is great and close to all kind of retail and restaurants and Wal-mart. You can see the campground by going to my blog(listed above). Plus I have heard they have a lot of activites starting next month for the winter guests. You do pay extra for electric when paying for the month, and there is a $50 deposit required.

Safe travels!
