About Me

Lee Creek, North Shuswap near Chase, B.C, Canada
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 19 to 23, 2013; Desert Hot Springs, CA

MAR  19, Tuesday, Desert Hot Springs
Hot and sunny!  Val went for a walk in the desert with Audrey and Louise and I worked on our Income Tax; we are getting a nice refund!  Val made spaghetti sauce for tonight.  I went to see about staying here an extra week and I have to buy it @ $210, for 7 nights ($30/night)!  We also made sure that Audrey could come in under Coast to Coast.  I am undecided about buying our week here, I am thinking of going to INDIAN WATERS Resort in Indio !?? We went Geocaching for the afternoon and found 14 of them; getting closer to my goal of 1000!  We came home in time to go to Louise and Dave for HH.  Two other couples joined us.  We came home and I got to finally watched Canadian news from home.

 
MAR  20, Wednesday, DHS
All of Val’s sisters have been planning a get together in August in Toronto so there is a lot of chatting on e-mail back and forth lately.  Val went for her walk with Audrey this morning and I took Tucker for his.  We went to Costco with Louise and Dave then to Walmart.  We came home and put everything away.  Audrey came over then at 5PM, the two of them and Louise went playing Bingo with Tom and Ellen.  Dave and I had to fend for ourselves.  I caught up with my blog and did some research on hotel rooms in Toronto.  I made reservations for Indian Waters Resort in Indio for our week out from here.

 
MAR  21, Thursday, First day of Spring in Desert Hot Spring!
Hot and sunny; we went over to Catalina Resort after Val’s walk and visited some new and used motorhomes!  Dangerous I know but we couldn’t help it, they were serving cakes and ice cream which we enjoyed.  There were a couple we were interested in but didn’t make any offer.  Tom and Ellen also joined us and afterwards we went to Audrey’s rig and had a couple beers.  We left around 3 PM and went to the Post Office to mail a couple letters than came home.  We went to Jim and Dot’s place for H.H, then over to Louise and Dave for a New Orleans Pork Roast which was delicious.  We had all the trimming with it and Audrey also joined the group.  We had a good time and a nice evening then came home.

 
MAR  22, Friday, DHS
We got up this morning to a hefty wind from the North which rocked us for quite a while but finally quit as suddenly as it had arrived about two hours later.  We went back to Catalina Resort with Dave and Louise and filled our face with hot dogs and looked over all of the motorhomes once again.  The girls, including Ellen & Louise, went to Palm Desert and came back around 4:30 PM.  Dave and I came home with his truck.
We, including Audrey, had Chicken Caesar Salad for dinner then went out to watch ARGO at the theatre in Palm Desert.  We came home around 10:30 PM, had a nightcap then bed time

 
MAR  23, Saturday, DHS
Sunny and warm!  We went back again to Catalina as they were serving BBQ pull-pork sandwich and coleslaw, all for free.  We enjoyed live music for a while then came home.  Audrey came and we had HH with Dave and Louise then we all went to the club house for steak, potato, green vegetables, buns and dessert.  It was quite good.  We then decided to see a movie, OLYMPUS DOWN, with Louise and Audrey; Dave stayed home.  We got back by 10 pm.
