March 18 - 22, 2024 Casa Grande Part 3 and News

Well, we had a semi-boring week - LOL.

We did get our fuel filters changed at SpeedCo - a division of Love's.  On Wednesday, we were there when they opened at 7 AM and by 10 AM we were on our way back home.  They were great and it was a minimal charge.  Now, we did buy the filters from Amazon because we found out that the one filter is readily available but the other is not.  

The other days were doing the normal laundry, groceries, packing up (see below) and trip planning (see below).

Here is our news...

News Flash 1

In 2023, we started the year with our home and three lots in Co-ops (Florida, Casa Grande, AZ and Yuma, AZ) and said...we are lot poor.  We made the decision that in two years we would have our home and one lot.  In 2023, we sold the lot in Florida and I could not make up my mind on the AZ lots.  There were pros and cons on both.

In January, we got a new lot in Yuma with a great "shed" and it backed up to the storage area.  Not that we are happy on the storage area but there are possibilities.  Another plus is that the "shed" can have a his/her area plus storage so I can have my "space" to do crafts, and Andy can have his radio area as well as a work bench and storage above.

After being there and looking at the possibilities, we decided to give up our Casa Grande lot.  We are sad to leave this park because of the many memories but now we have one house in PA and one lot in Yuma.  So stay tuned for some of the things we want to do to make Yuma our home away from home.

We have not left for good.  It is still a great park to stay and we will be dropping by now and then.

The picture tells it all.. (from our 2009 trip)!

(Yes! That is on the Alaskan Highway in April 2009.  There are no words to describe the beauty. And yes, I did take those pictures.)

Alaska, here we come!

We have decided to spend the summer in Alaska and then come back to Arizona in Fall of 2024.  In the spring of 2025, we will be in PA.  We have been in Alaska in 2007 and 2009 and it does call you back.  We felt the time is right so we are going for it! 

Right now we are still making our plans but tentatively...we hope to cross into Canada sometime early May and spend some time seeing the sights.  So sometime in June, we will  cross into Alaska.  Gosh, the only thing I can say is that we are blessed!  We are excited!!   

Tomorrow we are heading to Yuma so stay tuned and enjoy today.
