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 a Sunday night and we had a good day. Really all of our days are usually good. Today was a busy day from early till late. Its late an the 2nd half of the movie, Catagory 7, End of the world, on CBS is on. I'm sure when the movie is over that the life on earth wil go on. Atleast in the movie it will.

We started our day as usual, at 8:00 am we got out of bed. By nine we were dressed and had breakfast. We busied our selves with email, checking out the news and the forums we keep up with. This afternoon we took the bent right skirt off and straightened the bent frame. It does look much better now. Shirley put it back on and we had a chore done. Next was to wash the RV.

We have a bottle of special wash concetrate we wil use. It came with the RV. Its a capful to two quarts. We will see how this works. We bucket wash and we have a 1.5 gallon bucket and our mop. It takes 3 buckets to wash and 5 bucket to rinse. When we are done the RV is pretty clean and streak free. We will use the squeege to wipe the rinse water off. This is like doing the windows except we will do the whole RV. We waxed the lower half last spring. We will need to wax again this spring and get the whole coach. We now have a second chore done.


the last chore is to check the stair bolts to make sure they are tight. and thye were.Shirley checked them with a 1/4" drive ratchet and she could not turn either of the two bolts. There is suppose to be four bolts but only two are in place. Some where in time we will drop the stairs and put the other bolts in place. Anyway, another chore is done.

While I took a nap, DW baked brownies and went for a walk. MMMMMMMMM, the brownies were good. Tomorrow is dump day and we will have 5 days in the tank and thats our limit. To go more than 5 days requires less water usage that is for another day. The weekend campers have all left and the place is quiter. And with the cooler weather coming in Tuesday morning, dumping the tanks on Monday is good timing.

Not a lot to say, we did do some house work and all. What we did was not our usual daily stuff. We dusted the dash, oiled the wood (dusted it), cleaned filters, etc. Cleaning that is not a daily thing. Our daily cleaning is vacuum the floors, clean the kitchen and dinning table, trash, kitty box and bathroom counter top. On dump day, the potty and shower get cleaned.

We are still providing wifi for those around us. Our neighbor came over last night to ask if it was ok to use. His 11 year old brandson was staying and discovered the signal. I told him it was there to use and he said his GS would be grateful. I told him that there were alot of adults happy for the signal. We have had as many as five at one time online so far. Right now there is 2 besides myself. DW is watching tv in the bedroom.

Thats all for today. Last warm day for a week is tomorrow and we will do errands.
