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!

March 6 to 9, 2011; Casa Grande, AZ

MAR 6, Sunday, Casa Grande AZ
10 AM and it is 72*F (21*C) already! The sun is shining but there is also a thin layer of clouds blocking the sun form time to time. Val did laundry this morning and then we went shopping in town. After buying groceries at Fry’s, we went to BIG 5 Sporting store where I bought a needed pair of running shoes. From there it was Walmart where I got a seat for my bike and a horn for Val’s; we also picked up a couple movies for tonight. We stopped for fuel at Fry’s for 3.77/gal, stopped at Jiffy\s Lube to get an oil & lube change then came home, put the groceries away and had a drink. We phone our friends and neighbours, Bob and Gail and made arrangement to see them tomorrow.


MAR 7, Monday, Casa Grande; clouds & strong winds but warm
We were to go to Phoenix today but cancelled due to high winds and sand in the air. Val went for the “walk the pounds” exercise this morning and I fixed the cupboard door which hinge had come undone; I fixed my bike seat and installed the bell on Val’s bike. I also changed the air and fuel filter on the truck
We went to Walmart to return a couple items then went geo-caching for the rest of the afternoon. We found 6 of them!


MAR 8, Tuesday, Phoenix; Sunny & warm
After Val had her exercises and shower, we drove to Phoenix to Costco, Camping World and Walmart. We then headed to Bob and Gail in Mesa for a visit and dinner. We had a very nice visit and came home around 8:30 pm.


MAR 9, Wednesday, Casa Grande
This was a hot day! I took my back mud flap bar to the welder as it has a crack and is ready to break. In the afternoon, we went geo-caching for a couple hours then it was pub time to wash all that dust from the desert. We also went to the movie place to return the movies we had rented and then to Fry’s to pick up milk. Came home and had a drink before dinner.
