Posted on November 10, 2015November 10, 2015 by Carol

Not A Beautiful Beginning

Posted on July 25, 2015 by Carol

Kwikee Step Rebuild

Posted on April 14, 2015April 27, 2015 by Jim Mellema

Jim’s turn, and I like to do the techie stuff. At 6 years old, our front entry steps are looking kinda beat. After dragging them thru a ditch outside of Silverton, Colorado a few years ago, followed by a roadside repair, they don’t work as smoothly as they once did either. Here’s what we are starting with:…

Did you know that according to a 2010 Kaiser Family Foundation study, kids now devote an average of more than seven hours a day to electronic media use, which equates to about 53 hours a week.  That’s more than a full-time job!!  Did you also know that today, more than 80% of Americans live in…

“How do I travel around in my RV and still earn an income?” is probably one of the most frequently asked questions that we see on forums and Facebook. It can be a real challenge, unless you got a kick-ass retirement fund from your company, to travel and earn an income. We have always been…
