About Me

We went full-time Rving in October of 2005! We retired from full time to part-time as of the end of 2015. Our present "small but comfortable" Wagon is a 2008 Camper trailer(TravelAir Rustler), pulled by a 2008 Dodge Dakota, 4X4.l. Our home is now a Gated Community Park, in Oliver, British-Columbia, Canada. I retired in 2005 and my Life Companion, Valerie, retired October 1, 2006 from nursing. We invite you to follow and share our new adventures and mishaps. Life is but an adventure full of dreams yet to be fulfilled!

January 26 to 28, 2011; Mazatlan & visitors

JAN 26, Wednesday, Mazatlan and visitors from Alberta
The day began sunny but clouded over by late afternoon. I got really energetic this morning and got on the roof and washed it. Once this was done, the sides had to be done as the dirt spilled over on the sides. Now “Bear” is washed from front to back and top to bottom and looks much better. Next will be the “Beast” (truck) but not today.
Louise and Dave left at noon to pick up their daughter and boyfriend and arrived back in time for Happy Hour! We met them then got acquainted during Happy Hour. Their names are Sandy & Warren. They are staying at a hotel within walking distance of the Park. The evening was warm due to the clouds retaining the heat and no complaints were heard from us except to tease the newly arrivals that they brought this with them. The clouds looked like they were going to burst anytime but didn’t! So now there are 8 in our group of Amigos.


JAN 27, Thursday, Mazatlan, cloudy
Today is my Canada Pension deposit and I found out that I got a big raise of $15 more a month. I feel so much richer! I forgot to mention that after Val’s incident with the glass door and everyone getting a good laugh at her misfortune, Al banged his head on Dave’s slide and Louise walked into the awning’s post so I guess Val got the last laugh!!
You’ll also notice that there is a new link added to “My Favourite Links”; it is call “Driving to South America from the US”. This is about a couple who drove to South America in their motorhome with their children in 1978. We met this couple here in our park.
We went in the Golden Zone today with D&L’s daughter and boyfriend. We walked and shopped until we couldn’t any more. Louise and Sandy are really bad together when it comes to shopping! Warren likes his beer so we sat in a bar whenever we could while the girls shopped. I found and bought a hoody to replace the one I lost and Val bought a vail. We came home in time for happy hour with Al and Brenda.


JAN 28, Friday, Mazatlan; cloudy
Dave took his truck to a local shop to have his front end repainted then the four of them went to Stone Island; we stayed here. I washed all the windows and install the decals that I had bought a couple days ago then Val and Brenda went into town and Al and I joined them for lunch then the four of us came home. We read for a while, had happy hour at 4 pm and the crew finally arrived back from their excursion and joined us. I BBQ’ed fish for dinner then we joined the gang outside once again as they had a fire going.
