HOME SWEET HOME

Even though we live more days in our motor home, than we do in the Lake Havasu house, it's always nice to be home. Patty and I have talked about being fulltimers, but it's never gotten to the serious stage. We both need a home base, and besides, it's just a fact that we could never part with all of the stuff that we have accumulated over the years. I know that there's the storage option, but, it just wouldn't work for us. People have often asked why we keep a house we don't use very much. It comes back to our need for a place to return to in the winter. I finally finished the landscapping this year, and it's all set up with automatic irrigation, so we don't have to be here to maintain the yard. Our expenses on the house are minimal, in that utilities while we're gone are very low. The house is paid for, so our fixed costs are property taxes and insurance. It's well worth those costs in order to meet our need for a home base. At the end of summer, we always look forward to returning to Lake Havasu. Our friends who have RV's are always welcome to park here when we're home. We have room for 2 large motor homes, one spot with 30 amp & water under the shade cover, the other is 50 amp & full hook up next to the garage.
