I said in my last post we decided to buy a lot for investment in MCC, and after 10 days of reviewing every option (as there was not much else to do in COVID-19 shelter-in-place), we finally decided to buy a water facing lot, lot #334. Although the deal took a couple of weeks toContinue reading “Motorcoach Country Club Part 3 April 2 to May 16”

As I said in my last post we moved our coach to MCC (Motorcoach Country Club) on March 20, which was still pretty early in the COVID restrictions. Although we had reservations for sometime in advance we were worried they would close to renters like us. MCC has 400 RV lots in a gated communityContinue reading “Motorcoach Country Club Part 2 March 20 to April 1”

It was now official: COVID-19 changes EVERYTHING! To this point in our travels the pandemic had only lightly affected us. A trade show in Las Vegas was postponed but we still went to the same RV Park and just sheltered. We also had not been able to see a bunch of friends we had plannedContinue reading “Motorcoach Country Club in Indio, CA. Eight weeks of “Shelter in Place” for COVID safety”

Our next stop was at Lake Mead RV Park.  A very nice spot that is part of the National Park system so I was able to use my lifetime membership to enter and exit without hassle.  COVID-19 closures and changes had not really started yet so we went through a normal sign in and wereContinue reading “Lake Mead – March 6 to March 20”

We have been to a few Harvest Host places so far and enjoy them a lot.  The negative has been that they can be far off the main road, and sometimes the roads have been narrow which can be difficult for our 44′ rig towing another 20′ of tow bar and car. Harvest Host isContinue reading “Desert Diamond Distillery- Kingman, AZ”

Our next stop was only an hour or two past our last stop and further on the way to Las Vegas.  I picked a small RV park in Wikieup, AZ (yes that is a real town).  I picked this place named Dazzos to stay at for several reasons.  It was right on the main road,Continue reading “Dazzo’s in Wikieup, AZ.

We were supposed to be in Las Vegas for the a very large trade show in my industry named ISC-West.  It takes place in Las Vegas every year in March or early April.  While it was cancelled due to COVID we had RV Park reservations based around it and decided to just go ahead withContinue reading “Moving towards Las Vegas: North Ranch Escapees RV Park, Congress AZ”

We left Tucson earlier than we had planned to head back to the Phoenix area. We moved on February 21st and stayed until the 1st of March.  I had a doctors and dentist appointment in the area, plus both Leslie and I needed to go into our respective offices for short visits. We normally stayContinue reading “Monte Vista Village RV Park in Mesa, AZ”

After Patrick, Mysha and Ronan left (and the sales meeting also had ended) we went back down to our coach in Tucson at the Casino Del Sol RV Park.  But I only had the weekend there as on February 17th I had to fly to Colorado for the “ASSA ABLOY Base Camp”.  This is anContinue reading “Back in Tucson for Leslie; Colorado for Scott”

While we were in Tucson in February our youngest son Patrick, his wife Mysha and their son (our only grandchild so far) Ronan were scheduled to be in Phoenix for a few days to go the wedding of a friend. That week was also  the annual DSS Sales Meeting.  DSS (Door Security Solutions) is theContinue reading “A week with Ronan: We are now MiMi and Big Poppy”
