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.

It’s a Monday and I’m going to try this again

This is a second attempt as the first got lost in computer laa laa land. Its Monday morning at dark thirty and time for all them that work to get up and go to work. Get showered, dressed and have breakfast and off you go to the freeway to joint he others in that mad dash to work. All that rush to go 30 MPH if your lucky. Reminds me of a saying,

“I owe, I owe, so off to work I go”.

We got up at our usual hour of 8:00 am and started our day. Had breakfast and dressed by 9:30. And out the door we go to head to buy groceries. The car battery is dead! Natta, Zip! Pushed it to the rv so we could jump it, got it started and off to Grumpy’s in Crowley to have the alternator checked. Its good. Now off to O’Reilly’s to have the battery checked. It’s good. Either we left a light on or we have a drain. Time will tell.

We finally made it to Wal-mart and bought our list of food items and a few non-food items. The price of rope lights is $3.00 cheaper than Lowe’s but all they have is clear and red. No green or blue lights. We will keep looking. We do not buy meat or veggies there but we go to Albertson’s for these items. We head home, to the rv, and put those items away, and have lunch. Then its off to Albertson’s for the rest of our shopping.

Once we are home and have all the groceries put away, its time to dump the tanks. We unhook, close the two slides, and drive to the dump site. This is an every 5 or 6 day job we must due when we do not have a sewer connection. Unhook to return and re-hook up takes us at most 20 minutes here. Some other places more and sometimes less. Its part of the life style we have. Our next date is Friday of this week.

We will go into tomorrow’s cooler weather with a clean rv, lots of eats and all our outside chores done. We will stay in most of the time, keep comfy warm and find things to do. If I can find time, ha ha, I will update this blogg. Maybe there is something interesting enough to take a picture of.
