I have been keeping a couple spread sheets regarding various places we have traveled the last couple years. I record areas we may want to consider as an RV home base or for when we are ready to transition to a more permanent location. I include the pros and cons while still fresh in our… Continue reading Looking at Home Base Options: RV Lot vs Manufactured Home

Living with Social Distancing & Staying at Home–RV style
Even with 100 degree temperatures for a couple weeks, we are managing pretty well here in Yuma. Our days begin with getting up about 6 am and having our Bullet Proof coffee.

Pools Are Closed – Surviving Yuma Heat
Now that we have extended our stay in Yuma at Fortuna De Oro for the month of April, and realize we are likely to remain for the month of May as well, surviving the upcoming heat became a concern.

Covid-19 Stay at Home Order Affects Fortuna De Oro

The lease site made each return to Pio stress free. It was nice to go directly to… Continue reading Fall 2020/Winter 2021 Decision Made
Yuma Resort Research 2.0
As we spend the month of March at Fortuna De Oro RV Resort, a Cal-Am Resort, we have made it a priority to check out additional RV resorts in Yuma. Research is more pertinent now since we are frustrated with the power issues at our leased site at Pio Pico. Last month our coach shut… Continue reading Yuma Resort Research 2.0
Yuma RV Resort Possibilities
After our night in Winslow, AZ and our stop at the Meteor Crater, we arrived in Yuma, AZ. We were able to “mooch-dock” at Bob and Janet Bockus’s place for the night. Since we arrived in the early afternoon we took advantage of the daylight to check out both Fortuna De Oro (Cal-Am Resort) and… Continue reading Yuma RV Resort Possibilities
