So, on Monday, we headed from Palm Desert to the Yorba Linda, CA, area.  We picked up Francy from her Pet Hotel, and spent the next couple days in a Residence Inn.  These are nice, as you have a kitchen, a separate bedroom, and they are pet friendly.  They also have free breakfast and dinner […]

Through the whole time we were thinking about our RV adventures, then with all the steps to make it happen, we kept hearing about Quartzsite, AZ, and that we just had to go there when they had their big RV show.  Well, our planned maintenance period (about a week) is starting right at the end […]

Well, it is a car, and house, and you can’t always get the repairs done where you can also park and live in the RV.  So, we headed to Giant RV in Murrieta, CA, and worked with Shawn to outline all the things that needed fixing.  On the list were oil changes and service for […]

Well, we’ve had a great three weeks here in Menifee, CA.  The NACO/Thousand Trails park, Wilderness Lakes, has been a nice place to stay.  We’ll be back here in a couple weeks, and it will be interesting to see how it changes with the weather.  There’s a dairy next door, and we’ve heard that heat, […]

There’s no simple way to explain how we came to the decision, except to look at our past and some of the main events that led up to the discovery of the idea.  So, here goes. First, in this family of ours, we have me (David), Diane, Megan, Molly, and our feline family member, Francie. […]

We’ve seen other Fulltime Families posting about all the happenings at the Wilderness Lakes TT park here in Menifee, and now we’ve finally made it here ourselves!  We’re booked for 3 full weeks here, so we should be able to see all the activities they have to offer, and hopefully meet up with some of […]

On New Years Eve, we pulled in the lines, slides and awning, and headed from Pio Pico in Jamul, CA, to the Orangeland RV Park in Orange, CA.  Orangeland RV boasts a couple of wins for RV Park of the year, and it’s easy to see why.  The staff is very friendly, everything is super […]

We had a great Christmas celebration at the Crayne residence.  On Christmas Eve, we saw a performance of A Christmas Carol in Costa Mesa.  One of Molly’s friends was in the performance.  She had been in the cast for 18 of their 35 performances this season.  It was a fantastic show, and might be part […]

We made it!  The drive from AZ to OC CA was pretty uneventful.  I started out just after 6 in the morning, and Diane made it to the front of the RV a little ways before we crossed into California.  Got a little bit of rain which made a significant mess on the CRV, but […]

We took a different approach today, where we stopped for a good break around lunch time.  This gave Francie a bit of time to come out from the back bedroom and tell us exactly how unhappy she was at the situation.  Oh, and to get a bite to eat, drink, and make a couple deposit’s […]
