RV life

We’re still adjusting to the RV life.  We purposely went small with our RV so we can park in more campgrounds.  But living in the small space takes getting used to.  For instance, we rarely buy spare groceries anymore. While we have a couple of spare paper towel rolls, we don’t have the space for the large pack.  Imagine only having half your refrigerator and for dry goods a couple small shelves and a thin pull-out pantry . When we get back from grocery shopping, we remove a lot of the packaging to save space.   I’ve been surprised, though, that this is enough space for our food.  Plus, we can see our food so things don’t go bad without being used.


While congress debates dropping Saturday service from mail, we have found that getting mail once every 2 weeks works just fine.  We have a mail forwarding service in Arkansas.  When we know we'll be at a campground for several days, we ask them to throw away the junk mail and send the regular mail to the campground.  Less hassle going through mail.  We haven't had a problem due to the 2 week delay so far.  The few bills we have are paid on the internet. 


Loved the large oak trees at this campground!  We're off to Mississippi next.
