Once we arrived in Elephant Butte, the first order of business was to make sure the New Bus condition was as expected. In particular, we had not been able to do a road test because the driveway was overgrown with trees. The Seller, Jim (a prince of a fellow in every respect) had arranged for

Our (Aborted) Swing North
Our last few months has been spent in one spot, more or less. This is because, as reader(s) of this Blog may remember, we have acquired our next phase of mobile operations! And it needed some work before we could well and truly hit the road in it. And, we are at that point, just

A New Home for the Houseless?
As we may have mentioned to at least some of you, we are considering the purchase of a new bus. Well, “The Bus” (as we shall refer to it in this article, not to be confused with “Our Bus,” RV WHERE YET) is a 1986 Bluebird (specifically a PT-40) version, which is certainly newER than

Peeling the Onion!
Most of our time in Chicago has been spent gradually peeling the onion – removing all the layers that accumulate over the years, down to just what is imPOtent. Liz and I made a pact with each other that we were NOT going to keep things with mere “minor” sentimental value, which is almost everything.
Decision Points… Pass on Passes and the Horny Corner!?
So….Our time in California came to an end approximately the same time that Chet’s basketball season came to an end. More on the latter in a minute – first we had to escape California. That presented TWO challenges…the price of fuel and the route to take. FORTUNATELY, RV WHERE YET has a BIG fuel tank
This “Living on the Road” Experiment is OVER!!
But, not the way you might be thinking!!! As we have disclosed before, Liz and I have decided that the experiment IS over – we are happy on the road, and don’t need most of our assets tied up in a 100+ year old maintenance pit in Chicago. Our place was listed just B4 Thanksgiving,
