Winterizing took place this weekend, and along with it – the bit of sadness that always come at the end of a great RV season. This was our longest ever “season”, having begun back in February of 2018! After our Spring Road trip to Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, we returned to Colorado to break ground for a new home in Southern Colorado. While the RV was our only residence after that, we kept up a busy schedule of campground and park hopping during the summer of 2018 and again in 2019.
Fall Colors over the Spanish Peaks
- Perhaps one of the most dramatic events was the Spring Fire in June of 2018.
- As in years past, we attended Cheyenne Frontier Days both in 2018 and 2019.
- We learned alot about camping in a Colorado Winter as we celebrated the holidays and ushered in the New Year.
- After moving into the new house in late March, we made an abbreviated trip to South Texas and enjoyed great friends and family for a impromptu House Warming.
Since we last winterized, we spent 480 nights in the camper and traveled just under 11,000 miles. It took two tow vehicles to keep up with our journeys, the F-150 was traded in for an F-350 in September 2019. And, we’re now starting to look at new 5th wheels. Colorado RV Show, here we come!
And, planning is already underway for a grand Spring Road Trip beginning in early February 2020. Stay tuned…
Spring Road Trip 2020
Small Home - Big Yard 
Hey guys!
Love seeing your updates. It keeps me inspired. My adventures on the road were halted in June and it will probably not be until June 2020 before I can hit the road again. My Airstream is in storage but try to visit it just to keep the spirit alive. Currently staying with family in Chicago.
I was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in June. Despite the staging, it was a surprise diagnosis as a result of “your 50, you need a colonoscopy” health plan. I’m about 1/3 way through chemo treatments and feeling good for the most part. Chemo hasn’t been horrible and side effects so far are minimal. My spirits are good and just had a visit from friends from the road. Winter is coming so everyone is headed south.
The plan is to head to Colorado next June for a couple Airstream rally’s then hang out in various parts through fall. If you are around, it would be fun to see you and your lady sidekicks!
Congrats on the new truck! Good luck on the new 5th wheel purchase.
