Isn't she a BEAUTY? Our retirement truck, named Coddiwomple - (CW) for short - is thrilled to have a traveling companion, yet to be named. Please join the blog and provide some inspiration for names that complement CW. My first impressions about RV life: I can deep clean this beauty in 30 minutes FLAT. Storage solutions - both built in and available for purchase - are abundant and clever. The bed is surprisingly comfortable. Setting up requires a gazillion tools and hoses and gadgets, and teamwork, and patience. There is a LOT to learn about how to handle poop. Towing down the highway is a breeze. Parking and leveling and hooking up take a little more practice. We can't wait to load up and hit the road as full-time work campers, serving folks and enjoying every day and all of nature in our country's national parks. Toward that end, we are set up under a shade tree on our Lake Belton property where we will spend the next several months adding additional sites, outbuildings, and landscaping to finish our newest project: Click HERE to view our website. We have four sites, all of which are currently booked full-time by some adventurous souls who agreed to move on in while we are still a work in progress. They are enjoying the BARE necessities: making do with a level site, water, electricity and a picnic table each. As I learn more about blogging, I'm planning to categorize ideas, photos and musings: End Marks - Paving the Road to Retirement A chronicle of our work to build On the Rocks Rentals at Westcliff as a source of retirement income and a tiny home/barn to serve as home base for our wandering. Mile Marks - Feeding our Wanderlust Follow us on road trips, RV work camping gigs, overseas travel, and daily journeys. Place Marks - Gathering Round a Table Anecdotes of folks who join us at our tables and on our journeys, and a record of favorite recipes, gardening and food preservation tips, and and photos of scrumptious dishes we discover. Book Marks - Pondering Words and Ideas A collection of my favorite books, authors, words, sentences, ideas, and stories of people I know and meet. Sign up today to join us on our adventures. I can't wait to share our work and collect your inspirations. (Click Log In on the task bar and sign up with your email or social media).
