We have a blank canvas…what to do with it? A QR code, of course! Just a few months ago, Robert took off all the graphics from our Alfa. We like having it plain, but a few weeks ago we were talking and joked that it would be neat to have one of those bar codes on …
Changing the Bathroom Faucet
Although we like our Alfa, after living in it for a while, we find ourselves wanting to do a few personal touches here and there. One thing that we’ve changed recently has been our bathroom faucet. There wasn’t anything wrong with the original one, except we didn’t care for the style. We had been on …
Too Many TVs
Robert and I aren’t huge TV watchers, especially when we moved into our Alfa. Our motor coach came with four TVs: one in the basement, one above the driver’s seat, one in the galley, and one in the bedroom. Since our Alfa is a 2003, all the TVs are the old, heavy tube models. The first …
Transformation
Well, after about eight months of growing my beard, it was time for a change. One thing about having a beard, when you are ready to shave, you can have fun with it. I got out my handy little vacuum for my make-shift Flowbee and went to town. One thing is for sure, I sure do …
Gotta Remove Those Graphics
I don’t know why most all RVs have such goofy graphics, but I knew shortly after we got our Alfa, that I wanted them removed. Last September, when we were still living in our rental house in FL, I started the daunting task. I thought that I’d use a pressure washer and soon found out that …
Weekend of Hiking
We know that we’ve come to Colorado during the coldest time of the year, but for the last couple of weekends we were itching to go hiking with the dogs. It didn’t work out because it was either too cold or too windy. This weekend was our chance with temps in the 60’s and practically …
Keeping the Water Lines From Freezing
This is our first winter in cold weather in our RV and we keep doing little things here and there to improve our insulation and winterizing. For the past month, we split our time at two different Colorado State Parks. Each one would not allow continuous hook up to the city water. One asked that you simply use …
Rewired
When we bought the RV it had an extra set of brake lights/turn signals installed. They are a great addition as our tow vehicle blocks the regular tail lights and signals. On our maiden voyage in June one of the lenses fell off. It was just the amber lens that was against the RV. With …
Windy, Windy, Windy
Robert and I have been in storms, since we both grew up in tornado alley, but the wind we’ve experienced for the past couple of weeks here at the foothills west of Denver is RIDICULOUS!! Gusts up to 70 miles per hour a couple of weeks ago, 50 miles per hour today! Yesterday, we moved …
Beautiful Sunrise
This morning we woke up to see a beautiful sunrise, too bad the city is in the way. Decided to take a couple of shots because in a blink the colors were gone.
We can’t wait to be somewhere to see the sunrises unobstructed by city. Soon…
