We finally decided which battery upgrade to make and went with a single Lithium LiFePo. It’s a Lion Energy Safari UT 1300 with 108 AH. Since we can run it down to basically dead without harming the battery we can use almost all those AH whereas our current Lead
The other night while visiting relatives near Mesa, we stumbled on Rosati’s, a Chicago style pizzeria, and decided to have dinner there. They have a full bar and an area with seating for dinner. We tried their pizza and wings and they were great! We had their garlic parmesan
We've been considering buying some eBikes having seen so many people riding them lately and the fact we are planning a trip to Utah's Big 5! We figure trying to hike everywhere isn't going to work for us but maybe we can bike back
In our travels, we have boondocked several times now. We have had combinations of utilities from everything to nothing just depending on the situation. Our current campsite is at a Harvest Host in Mesa that offers water and power so overall we are well off BUT we are staying 10

Yesterday we releveled and today no power. Well, so much for an easy retirement and stress free camping! We woke up this morning to find the refrigerator was dead. No lights and not even a beep when we touch the control panel. We’ve seen this once before when the
We decided to work on an issue with our Furrion refrigerator leaning back too far. Ever since our last trip up to Grapevine, it’s been leaning too far back compared to its “normal” look. It made the doors hit the sides of the cabinet and was causing damage. I
It went down below 20 degrees or so here in south Texas last night. That's the coldest we have seen while we were camping in our rig! We have seen colder temps but we weren't camping and the camper was fully winterized. Recently, we had been
We are big fans of viewing Christmas lights around the holidays and this year was no exception. We spent Christmas with our daughter's family which included our 4 grandkids! Here's just a sampling of what we saw: We took our grandkids to see a huge drive
In planning this trip to Pa for Thanksgiving, Kim had expressed some concern, “what if it snows?” to which I replied, “it’s only November, they never get much snow.” That would come back to haunt me very quickly. We weren’t that concerned about the cold since our Reflection
