From 90 mph winds to mmega rain. From new battery now my tail lights won't shut off . From storms from hell to loosing both vents, bad roof job that leaks, most defenantly water damage. .. and top it off with trying to find work, surviving on pennies yet I don't qualify for food stamps? Unemployment is a joke. The system is failing and I'm watching it from the front lines. Setting up for failure. Sooo whats next? Lol.
When I chose Rving I didn't plan on so much bad happening....

We've now been to Newmar, AIM and FMA (Fleetwood) rallies. As past event planners, we enjoy seeing how others run their events. Last month, we attended the AIM rally in Chiefland, Fl (pre-Show), the Newmar Kountry Klub Rally during the Super Show and then the Fleetwood Rally post show. We've been to 4 Aim rallies and these are our favorites. We attended an AIM rally in Biloxi MS and the night we had dinner at The Reef restaurant, there was a 7 pc band that was outstanding. They re-appearred...

Well... I made it so far. I fear I have significant water damage. My windowindows I thought were leaking... Well yes they were, but not like I thought. The roof had a leak and it wasn't obvious. I saw nothing from the inside. It leaked in between the walls and that's where the water was coming from. I tarped the roof best I could without blowing away ( that would be me blowing away) and now I have it off to air it out hopefully it'll dry somewhat. But I have a feeling that it's going to take more...

Well heck... It's storming here in Cali. Lost my vent in bathroom (blew off). Roof now peeling. I got the stuff to fix it temporarily but the rain and more importantly the wind. Try first thing in morning. That's got me worried. The damage the water will do. When it rains it pours ..

I a little worried. One major storm after the other hitting California. Winds getting to be 90 mph. Stay tuned.

A couple of pics from the day we brought it home...

Thank you all for your support and help in my journey. I've had a lot of set backs and grief and without all your knowledge I surely wouldn't have made it this far. I'm hoping in the new year I'll have more positive things to share. From day one you've given me support that I much needed to keep going. Thank you from my heart. Many blessings to you all.

Much love and respect,

Ok, not so much a disaster, but it's the first time we had to stop a trip because of an issue. We were on the road home from Ca. for my mom's memorial service, and got to Albuquerque at about 2 PM. and the Tire Minder system alarmed to a tire that was losing pressure. I pulled over on interstate 40, right in the middle of downtown Albq, at the start of the off ramp for Carlisle Blvd. After I got stopped, the pressure went from 40 to zero in about 30 seconds. Called Progressive roadside assistance,...

After six years. Hard work. Loyal.....
....I was laid off....I'm taking a break. These last couple years have been doozies.

So I treated myself to a night at Coyote point. Much needed. Got everything to work, but water hose too short. No biggy.

I just wanted to tell you guys that stop by and take the time to read this that I do appreciate you doing so and listening to me vent through my little experience my little journey I'm doing right now. Thank you so much cuz without all the support I've gotten from this website I don't know if I would have made it as far as I have. I'm sorry I'm such a whiner I just get in these moods I you know when I'm not working and I have time on my hands I start thinking about everything and I just get really...

I would just like to say that I was told that this RV was fine everything was great in my defense and I actually believed him and I shouldn't have I should have known better but so I came into this thinking everything was okay but within a matter of hours I was realizing like really nothing works it turns on and off and that's about it but nothing works I felt like he was just rushing and just you know trying to just be done with it and not help me anymore if I hadn't had surgery and been so out...

All I can say is every time I make a little progress I get knocked the heck back before square one I can't make any headway. I had all these plans like I'm going to do this this week and next week and then my next check I'm going to do this every ding time something gets messed up and I'm even set further back there's so many things I need to do and I just it's out of my reach and I'm so discouraged because I really love my RV it's grown on me and now I feel like my brother just really picked out...

The 4 of us (my husband, our dog, cat and myself) moved into our beautiful 1994 Newmar Kountry Aire and set out on a new adventure and a new chapter in our lives. We decided to start at a State Park with hook ups while we get our rv legs under us. Our future intent is to mostly boondock but we still have a lot to learn about Glory and some work to do on her before she and we are ready to go full boodock.

Our first month and a half has been full of interesting experiences from...

Well so far this boondocking and bouncing around hasn't been so bad it hasn't ups and downs. I think once I get so many things repaired it will be a lot easier. My schedule is just so crazy with these two jobs, there's only one dump station that's in the area and it's a 9:00 to 5:00. So it's really hard for me to get there, but I've been doing it and it's so far it's working out. The whole non-commitment thing is kind of cool, I just have a lot of stuff I need to take care of.
One thing...
