My top 5 things are… 1. At the beginning we went to see elephants, they are so big! We saw them eat, drink, and even do art! We got to take art made by one home for free! We even got to bath them! 2. We went to my dads cousins farm! At the farm, […]
One of the primary reasons we chose the toy hauler was the ability to: 1) Have the towing vehicle to drive around at the places we stay and 2) Have a tiny car that will be used primarily for my travel to and from the airports for work. Over the many “trial runs” before we […]
Talk about small town. Hugo, Oklahoma owned that description. Located only 2.5 hours north of Dallas, and home of the Endangered Ark Foundation. It has also adopted the nick-name of “Circus City”. Our understanding is that the circus would winter here on the off-season… which leads to the whole reason why we arrived here: The […]
Well – the house is officially under contract and we have moved into our little trailer home. <3 We have reserved the perfect spot just a few minutes from our “sticks and bricks” house, in order to be accessible as we are closing on the house. We decided to go for a trial run up […]

We decided to purchase a Ford F350 DRW (dual rear wheels; “dually”). We first set out for a used truck, then contemplated new, and finally ended up […]
In our last post we discussed how to read the specification sheets from different manufacturers. If you missed it, you might want to check it out before you continue here… Is the type of RV really that important to my truck selection? If you already have the truck that you plan to use for your […]
This is one of the most important questions for a new or soon-to-be RV owner. In the case of the Class A and Class C, you will not need a “towing” vehicle however, you should consider a vehicle to “tow!” This is a slightly less complicated process as you will want to look at the […]
