The 2005 Travels of Richard n Shirley

We are fulltime RV's. This means we have no other home but our motor home. We joined the Escapees RV Club and use their mail forwarding service and forum. In addition to Escapees forum, you can find us on rv.net and lrv2.com. We are Richard n Shirley on all of them. We access the internet with a Direcway satellite dish mounted on a tripod. We do set up the dish at every place we stop for the night or more. We are #2321 on datastormusers.com. Click us and you will find our current location.

Its just one of those days. We are stuck in the rv, cant really get out and its down right cool. There are lots of you out there looking in to our world and wanting some of what we have. Well, its ours and we want to keep it for a few days. And it looks like we will get to. So there.

We have three tv channels to watch, ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC kinda. NBC is the worst of them all. But its viewable and it has sound that we can understand. So I guess thats four. With ABC, where is the golf? I Told DW yesterday, now that we got ABC, the weekend is over. Oh Humm, cant have everything. We have in motion satellite but there is no receiver. Guess we will have to get one for next year to be able to have tv.

For those who have asked about our safety and security concerns, we are careful where we park If it doesnt feel safe, we move. I dont like being the only one here. And in most of these little towns, there is no local law enforcement. This town relys on the county and state. And we figure there is little to no crime here so we feel safe. Superior, NE had a four man city force. All the 911 calls went to the county and were dispatched from there. The county had a four man force also.

The road to Deshler was narrow and with no shoulder, unless you count the grass. Our tow dolly was between the lines, sorta. When we passed a car/pickup, they had to move over a bit as I was just on my side and the dolly was on the line. We did pass a truck and the dolly wheel went off the line onto the grass. We and he got over enough for our mirrors to miss. Like I said, narrow.

Wont be a pic today. Not even of the race car. The inside of the rv is lived in and we have our maps out looking for our next stop. If you have not guessed yet, it has rained all morning and right now its stopped. The road is a big puddle at the turn with lots of little puddles in between. Yep, we hand washed the coach and now its rained. But its a cool 73.
