Trip To The Sonoran Desert Museum In Tucson, Arizona

While we were in Tucson in February, our friend Selena took us to the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum and oh what a fun time it was too! Lots of pics and birds and all kinds of animals and plant life! Hope you enjoy this What Up Wednesday video! Thanks for watching!

RV LIFE – Grand Canyon Tour

While staying in Williams, Arizona we took the Grand Canyon Railroad to visit the canyon for a day. Talk about a fun time! You can find all the info on THE TRAIN here! It is an awesome train ride there and back, with a few hours during the midday at the canyon!

RV LIFE – Wednesday, March 12, 2014

We got “some” good news today. Joe from Grapevine RV called me to let me know that Mike’s trip to Long Beach was successful today to get both the truck and RV cleared through customs. Now, first thing tomorrow, Joe needs to get the papers faxed to DMV. He is supposed to call me as soon as he faxes it so that I can call the DMV lady, Doris (I think it is). I’ll need to beg, bribe, etc. to see if we can get it all pushed through before our deadline which is March 26^th!

Mike and Joe said that we could bring the Alpha home on Friday, but Tom doesn’t want to do that for fear that there may be more paperwork problems or delays and our time runs out with Southeast. We have to keep our payment on the RV around $250 and no more than that. It would really help if I could get a steady paycheck. Hopefully soon! He really wants to get the truck and rv both paid for, well, a lot paid on them before we hit the road.

I’ve been reading RV-Dreams Journal every day and it just really makes me want to be out there already. I know we still have a LONG way to go though!

RV LIFE – Monday, March 10, 2014

We are still at a deadlock on the paperwork being finalized for the Alpha. There seems to be one thing after another. Waiting for copies of the Canadian’s passports; then needing paperwork proving that the Canadian was/is the owner of the business that the Ford Trucks’ title was under; needing a power of attorney for Mike to conduct business on behalf of Joe for American Car Company; and who knows what else!!

So now, we are hoping that our loan approval is extended for at least another month so that all the DMV crap and customs crap can get taken care of. Mike isn’t going back to Long Beach until Wednesday, which was our deadline.

On Sunday, Tom and Daisy and I went to the RV to go hang out in it, but all of the slides were in and we didn’t have electricity to slide them out, plus they (Mike and Joe) have all the RVs packed in there pretty tight. Joe actually told me today that we can bring the RV home on Thursday or Friday if Mike gets the customs paperwork taken care of on Wednesday. I didn’t tell Tom, just in case something else goes wrong. I’m just really hoping that it all works out and we’ll have our beautiful new home in our yard soon.
