From the Mike Stinnett studio. This one is a Massasauga Rattle Snake that Mike carved from a piece of naturally crooked pine. I’ve checked out his blog and Youtube channel, his work is incredible!

i’m leaving on a Jet Boat…

In my last posting I mainly wrote about the camping opportunities along the Colorado River from Bull Head City/Laughlin downstream to Lake Havasu. This post is from the afternoon trip back up river and the other sights along the way. The boat arrived about noon at London Bridge and we went to go eat lunch and shop until the boat headed back about 2:00pm. One of … Continue reading i’m leaving on a Jet Boat…

captain Jenny, rollin on the river…

In April we took a trip to Laughlin with a bunch of friends, we call the Happy Hour crew. Five of the HH couples booked rooms at the Colorado Belle casino on this trip. We originally we planned to car pool in the Bounder, but in the end we opted to caravan in four vehicles instead. I’m sure there were concerns about a break down … Continue reading captain Jenny, rollin on the river…

Money Savers!, The RV

under pressure!

Since we got the Bounder I’ve had to air up the rear bags before every trip. I know there’s a minor leak some where but with it only leaking down after 30-45 days, the tank is still a great long term accessory even after I fix the leak. For this old of a coach, I didn’t want the expense of a built in compressor, I’ll … Continue reading under pressure!

They were staying at McDowell Mountain Park again as it was one of their favorites with the many trails to ride bikes or take some walks. I don’t know where the time went, we only got in one bike ride, a couple walks and another … Continue reading time flies…

step away from the Sloth!

Mike and Michelle (And Drink Plenty of it) finally found their way out of New Mexico at the beginning of March and Kartchner Caverns State Park was one of their first destinations. Since it was so close to all of us, Jeff and Megan met up with us there. This was the first time Alice & I have seen the caverns, M&M were there last year … Continue reading step away from the Sloth!

the fixx, yes one thing does lead to another…

I thought I’d have a break from projects once the bedroom shades were done, but Alice became anxious to get rid of more flower print. Alice got some more of the gray leather like vinyl and we started on the valances in the front. Altogether this partial remodel of Roman shades, valances and other trim has only set us back $350, so the wallet is calmer … Continue reading the fixx, yes one thing does lead to another…
