Me Gone RVing Adventures is a full-time RVing family on the road with our three adventurous cats. We’re currently remodeling our new 5th wheel to get her fully road-ready, with the goal of exploring boondocking sites and state parks across the country. Follow our journey as we share tips, adventures, and the ups and downs of life on the road—cat cuddles included!
Well, it can be tricky and easily neglected. Each one of us has to figure it out. Things like less stress, elevation differences, time differences, food differences, even the weather differences can have an impact on how well we are treating our bodies.
Less Stress? Less stress can mean taking less of your medicine. This gets me into trouble the most. I'll feel so good mentally that I forget to take important medicine and then I am down for a day or two at a time in physical pain (hate the C word). So to solve this issue, I have a medical journal and have alarms set on my cell and my fitbit. This has made a whirl of difference.
This is the medical journal I have, except mine is teal in color. It's a little more extreme but for those that have major medical issues, this is a gem. I'm so guilty of forgetting or not wanting to take certain medications when I'm feeling my best.
Higher elevation can do havoc on some people. There are medications that can be affected by the higher elevation, for example, acetazolamide is one, so be careful. Chances of heart attacks can increase too for some. I personally have a hard time breathing at higher elevations, so we don't stay long above 8000 for too long. It's weird, a million years ago, it didn't affect me as much other than not being able to run a hill.
Time difference. Our bodies get so used to medicine at certain times of the day. And with the time differences that can get pretty interesting. They say 30% of medicine does rely on the time you take it. So setting those alarms helps.
I don't have this fitbit but it was highly recommended to me because of the band that you can have your medical alerts engraved on it. It is on my shopping list. Fitbits really have advanced. Would you believe I still have the original (actually both Mark and I do). We really need to upgrade, as fitbits do more and more now - like call for help!.
Weather can also play a huge role in your medical as well. Medicine Storage for one. With temperature differences your meds could degrade or rot quicker. My major pain meds we keep in a safe. With junkies left and right, we wanted to be as responsible as we possibly could be. Plus having kids guests in our RV, we couldn't live with ourselves, if somehow a child got ahold of my medication. Treat your meds as if you were in a brick and stick home, (or as my friend calls it STUCK HOME). Different temperatures can alter the chemicals in your pills. So be mindful of that.
RV life is about life vacation, but the real world must be respected when it comes to your health. It took me my first 6 months to figure that out, and I stay on top of it now with consistent routines. And with my medical journal (log your food - that is the major secret sauce for my medical issues).
Women.... Let's chat menopause. It's part of my world. It's not fun at times but I seem to have a better handle on it. I changed some of the ways I eat and found something I can take that helps. Magic Pills? No not exactly but dang - close enough.
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE these pills. THEY HELP. Mark noticed how well they work and we buy 3 bottles at a time because we are both afraid of me running out. Sometimes, not having an easily mailing address causes issues but we jump ahead of it. Hot Flashes so far are gone. Mood is better, and just an easier transitioning as I go through the change. And just so that I am clear, THEY WORK FOR ME. I tried everything.
So ladies, how do you deal with women's health in your RV? Suggestions, Tips?? Share, Share, Share. bouncing off each other we save money, time, and in some cases heartaches.
Remember hitting any of the Amazon links does give us credit. It does not change the price of the product at all - in fact in some cases you may get those sale prices. We as RV full-timers depend on Amazon because it's only one website to have to shop through and saves us so much time. Because they have delivery centers now all over the USA we are saved!!
Downhill Tubing or Water Lake Tubing? Which do you prefer?
It's that time of year where we just want to be outside. And so far our favorite place to do just that is in Park City Utah. Down below is why....
And of course if the downhill is not your style. Utah has plenty of lakes to take advantage of water tubing. We haven't done that yet because the water temps for us are still too cold. Whimps we are lol.
Park City, Utah Here is something for the entire family. Ever wanted to be a Olympic Star? Well, here is your chance. Summer Tubing at 50 mph. Guests will slide on a traditional inner tube. Single ride tickets for Extreme Tubing are $15 for the small hills (ages 5 and up) and $20 for the large hill (ages 10 and up). And of course if the downhill is not your style. Utah has plenty of lakes to take advantage of water tubing
RV Walking Shoes Fun and we are NOT talking about Boots
Yesterday was a great day in general. Sure we had to be workamping for the day, but the weather was perfect, the campers all seemed to be in a extra GREAT mood and by golly, the pet owners were using the new dog poop stations we just recently put up.
What made it extra special for me, was the package that I received from a subscriber who was a past client of mine back in Idaho. Gosh, I've known Carolynn for years now. So to get a package to our job site was exciting and shocking at the same
So what was in the package? Hold on already..... Back in the day, we used to own two companies. We used to own a cleaning company (I miss the clients and just a couple of the employees). Seems like a life ago. And we also owned a pet sitting company - now that was fun. I loved all the furry babies and the hooman parents. We do miss that company GREATLY. Well, Carolynn was both clients. Oh my gosh her fur babies are something else.
I'm proud that our BEST employee Alicia took over the pet sitting business and 1/2 of the cleaning company over when we decided QUALITY of life is better living than QUANTITY of life. NO REGRETS, except for the other 1/2 of the company of who we gave to. What a shame and disappointment she turned out to be.
I absolutely love, love, love, love, love, them. I've always been a huge fan of BOBS from Skechers, but it goes beyond that. Back when I started my pet sitting business I was looking for a uniform of sorts to wear while pet sitting. And the animal print shoes are so wicked cool. The winning factor though for me was that Skechers has donated more than $6.6 million to help save animal lives that are forced to live in shelters across the USA and Canada (1.2 million shelter pets). They also donate shoes to hooman children. This company has my loyalty and deep love.
I had these ones too, hint hint these are on sale now. Grab them while you can. I'm waiting for some major BEAR ones to be designed lol.
The reason why these are so beyond extra special to me is not only from who they came from, but they came at a great time. I don't have many shoes at all, because well, living in an RV kind of hinders the shoe space for us, but right now our budget doesn't allow for frills. All and any extra money we can get, is going towards fixing up our RV. I've always said this and was always taught this. Our homes should always make a paycheck for us and man it's gonna be a LONG while before we reach that goal. I'm not complaining by any means, in fact I am grateful for anything we do in life. It's been an adventure for sure.
QUESTION:
How many shoes do I own?
1 pair of slippers
1 pair of sneakers
1 pair of Bobs (I am able to get rid of my hole of Bob's)
1 pair of Sandals
Carolynn, thank you for always being there for us. I miss washing your floors by hand and chatting with you at the same time. I miss it more than you can imagine.

Are we having problems with our marriage? To answer that… we’ll wait a bit. Drama tends to get better ratings than normal, everyday life, but in all seriousness, this is a topic that comes up often in our RV life. How hard is it really to have fun while traveling? To answer bluntly—it depends entirely on the couple.
We’ve all seen tragic stories, like Gabby Petito’s, all over social media. Traveling in a van across the country, sharing the “perfect” images online, but hiding the struggles behind closed doors. Her story is heartbreaking, a sharp reminder that appearances can be deceiving. And it makes you think: if traveling couples can experience such extreme issues, what about the rest of us?
We recently had an encounter that really made me pause. We met a couple who seemed perfectly normal on the surface. We swapped stories, helped them settle into their spot, and went about our day. Then we received a call—something was wrong with their electricity. I decided to go along with Mark, both for company and for fresh air. While Mark worked on the RV, I had a moment alone with the husband. Something was off, and I could feel it immediately.
The husband shared the difficulties they’d faced since starting full-time RVing—the unfair treatment at workamping positions, drug and alcohol issues with bosses, low pay, and constant stress. It was enough to bring the wife to the point of saying she wanted to sell the RV and get divorced. Watching the husband verge on tears, I had no idea what to say, other than, “Take baby steps, give yourselves space, and breathe.” It was a stark reminder that there are always three sides to the truth: His, Hers, and the Truth.
Driving away, I felt a deep, quiet fear. This was the third couple we’ve met who confided something similar. It’s not just a coincidence—it’s a real concern in the RVing community.
So, are we getting a divorce? Not even close. Mark noticed my quiet mood and suggested a walk to talk. I asked him bluntly: Are you happy? Is this life what you envisioned? Are you doing this for me, or because it’s your dream too?
His response was simple and grounding:
“I am so thankful for your dreams. I am so thankful for my dreams. We share the same dream, and we get the honor to live it together. That’s why we’re a success. Our bad day is better than most people’s good days.”
And there you have it. No divorce. But that moment reminded us how hard RV life can be, and how important it is to communicate, respect each other’s needs, and prioritize your marriage.
Lessons We’ve Learned About Marriage on the Road
RV life is not all sunshine and rainbows. Couples need to consider carefully before hitting the road:
Learn to fight without fighting. Timing, tone, and approach matter.
Respect alone time. We’ve structured our days so that I have quiet podcast time in the car, while Mark enjoys music in the truck. He loves his Nintendo Switch, I watch movies or cook in our tiny kitchen. It works.
Don’t let anyone interfere with your marriage. If a couple favors one spouse over the other, RUN. Those dynamics are toxic.
Past accusations are warning signs. If someone constantly talks about affairs, dishonesty, or drama from their past, disengage. You don’t need that negativity.
Agree on responsibilities. I may not park the trailer often, because Mark enjoys it. I help in other ways. Understanding roles reduces tension.
Protect Your Marriage From External Stress
RV life comes with challenges—small quarters, constant travel, workamping pressures—but no external influence should tear your marriage apart. Couples will try to inject their drama, judge your decisions, or manipulate your choices. Protect your bond. Prioritize each other above all else.
We’ve learned the value of boundaries. If someone doesn’t like Mark, they don’t like me—and vice versa. We have each other’s backs, always. We’ve created code words for communication, set boundaries after negative experiences, and proudly say “Bugger Off” to anyone who tries to interfere.
Life in an RV is a choice, and happiness is too. You don’t have to have the perfect RV, the most followers, or the fanciest setup. You don’t have to visit every destination. It’s ok to fail. It’s not ok to be unhappy.
We’ve seen enough couples struggle because they neglected communication, respect, or mutual dreams. Don’t let yourself become another cautionary tale. We’ve made mistakes, but we’ve learned from them—and that knowledge has protected our marriage.
Coalville, Utah, has been transformative for us. We set ground rules, recognized signs of potential conflict, and learned to stand together. Now, our marriage is stronger than ever.
Respect alone time. Even in small quarters, find your sanctuary.
Set boundaries. Protect your marriage from toxic influence.
Split responsibilities. Play to strengths; don’t compete.
Prioritize fun together. Be each other’s entertainment and support.
Stay adaptable. Life on the road is unpredictable; flexibility is key.
RV Must-Haves for Couples
If you’re new to RV life or looking to upgrade, we’ve curated some RV essentials that help keep life smooth and fun. From practical gadgets to comfort tools, these items have made our adventures easier. Check them out here: RV Newbie Must Haves (we get associate credit if purchased).
RVing is amazing, but it’s not always easy. For couples, it’s a test of communication, teamwork, and mutual respect. We’re proof that it’s possible to thrive, stay happy, and protect your relationship—even in tiny quarters and long travel days.
Gabby Petito’s story reminds us of the stakes. It’s real. Life is precious, and so is the bond you share with your partner. Fight for each other. Communicate. Protect your marriage. Prioritize happiness, not appearances. And remember, it’s ok to make your own rules, carve out your own time, and say no to people who bring drama.
For us, Me Gone RVing Adventures is more than a name—it’s a journey we take together, with laughter, respect, and love leading the way.
What we love most about our RV Full-Timing life is that we get to explore. We just pick a road and go for it. On this day it was no different, except for the fact that we are workamp now for the summer season. So we only get 2 days off. That just means we have to go back LOL.
Our plan was to head to Wyoming and check out the businesses there to see if it would be wiser to start shopping there for our food/gas/supplies in general. We took the backway, (neither of us having ever been this way) to see the backcountry.
We found stuff. A Ghost Town, Kilns and just beautiful landscapes EVERYWHERE.
The ghost town is called Piedmont. It was a timber and railroad town. The town was alive around 1867 and had some famous (and not in a good way) travelers. Butch Cassidy used Piedmont as a meeting place with all of his criminal soulmates for the big bank robbery in Montpelier, Idaho. There is a guess at what they stole - in the range of $10,000 which for that time was a lot. Although I think today $10,000 is a lot but then I don't have that lol. The Union Pacific fell victim to many criminal acts because of the like of Butch Cassidy and cronies.
There are still some property still there with reminders of what it was like back in the day. It was neat to sit on the side of the road dreaming about, what it was like back in that time. No doubt life was hard but man their office view is breaktaken.
Oh course so much lumber was taken.
There are still farms in the area.
The houses are starting to fall down even more so - when I did the research of the area, what a difference just a couple of years of hard weather on these old houses. It is private property so use your best judgement and leave it as you found it.
Moses Bryne was the first in Piedmont but changed the name to Piedmont because it means in Italian "Foot of the Mountain"
Those clouds were just magical
I hope a bride was carried over the threshold
Oh the secrets that this empty house holds
And just further down the road we find our next find. Piedmont Charcoal Kilns. Neither of us have ever seen such a thing in our lives, (now you can understand our love for our life because not only seeing but learning things almost on a daily basis).
The kilns are remnants of charcoal making. And you could smell them. These were built by the first family of Piedmont Mose Byrne in 1869 just two years after settling in the new town. I'm not sure how long these were producing charcoal, because in 1971 the area was registered with the National Register of Historic Places. 100,000 bushels a month down to a physical reminder of what was once.
There were 4 but as time goes by they will eventually all tumble down
These are huge up close.
Amazing at what the inside looks like - right?
This was taken from inside.
There was so much more that we had seen on this day, but you're just going to need to go and see the area for yourself. It would be fun to compare notes. Do bring a sacked lunch because there are picnic tables there next to the interpretive panels. They really made the whole area visitor friendly.
I hope you enjoyed our adventure day of where we just picked a random road and went for it!! You just never know what you will see. The video below is a blast from the past. Get ready to chuckle... We live on the wild side of life.
We took a Belly Dancing Class - it was so hard but it was so much fun. We had people make fun of us because it was beneath them. But you know what. Life is about having fun and it's our fun.
We went to Summit County Animal Control to start looking for our forever RV Kitten.
Traveling with our two RV cats, Ellie (our Queen B) and Abby, (our ultimate baby BRAT) has been a complete joy for us. They entertain us more now than when we were in a stick and brick home (house). They have become more lovable and cuddle almost non-stop. They have also become master window watchers. There is a lot to be seen here daily for them and they suck up in fear of missing something that's for sure.
Unfortunately, we can't get an adult cat or a male cat. An adult cat would cause hell on wheels in our RV for sure. Queen B Ellie doesn't do well with Adult cats because she is type A+++++ . However, she does very well with kittens. Abby doesn't like other humans, she's always been afraid of them. We've never heard her growl in any form since we've had her.
Why 3 cats? We are all missing Smokey. Me, most of all. She was all mine, mine, mine, (except for bedtime, then she was all about sleeping on Mark). I guess she knew I required my space, (NOT) lol. 3 cats seem to fit our lifestyle comfortably.
Google became my best friend yet again. I typed the words - Local Shelter Near ME and the Summit County Animal Control popped up. So, we jumped in our car and headed there. The building is a little confusing so Mark went inside to see what the protocol is about seeing the CATS... He gave the thumbs up and I proceeded to head inside.
I'm so sorry, we didn't get either of the ladies names that helped us (my bad). But the first lady, took us out to the dog area - I did look at my husband confused. He just nodded and we followed her. We meet two of the sweetest well behaved dogs EVER. Unfortunately our two cats would NOT go for having dogs for roommates. I had to cut her off and announce, we'd love too, but we can't. Oh that poor lady. She felt so bad us. No worries. I do respect her love for these animals - he way of talking and chatting indicated that. And off to the cat room we went.
We see cats. Not as many as I had mentally imagined but a handful. The second late who I believe is the director of the center came and helped us too. These two wonderful ladies make a GREAT team. Before we share the pictures, would you be so kind to check out their sites.
Love animals and want to make a difference? We love volunteers, please call the Summit County Animal Shelter
435.336.3985 to set up a time to come in.
OMG so cute... Wouldn't come to the front of the kennel but definitely curious
Very lovable but also very guarded
This one looks so much like Ellie! All we could think it was Queen B 2? ohhhh no!
Talker this one - well at this moment a screamer lol.
Has got to be the funniest, most personable, attention seeker we have ever seen. Too bad he is a "HE"
Winner!! But we don't know the sex - some of them were too small to tell yet, so we have to go back and check. They were also still in quarantine.
And so now we have to wait a week or two to go back. And that's totally ok, we promised ourselves - no guilt. We will save a life and life will let us know which fur bundle it will be. We want to thank the ladies for helping us and working with us. They did say that it's a slow season but the babies are coming.
So if you can - SAVE instead of buying breeds. There are so many unwanted animals for so many different reasons. Death of a family member, a birth of a baby, eviction, health. Life happens and we just need to help where we can. Adopt or donate. Donations help keep shelters from becoming kill centers. They can use the $$ for bigger space, ads, fliers, newspaper, food and supplies.
If your near the Coalville, Utah area be sure to visit:
Summit County Animal Control 1745 S Hoytsville Road, Wanship, Utah or call (435) 336-3985
And now we leave you off with a video that we hope you'll enjoy, it's from our visit with BEST FRIENDS down in Kanab, Utah
As Workampers, we do get two days off. We get to do whatever we want to. And with the recent increase in gas prices, we are being forced to bunker down and stay as close to home as possible. So what do we do, we volunteer Marks services to do some improvements to our summer spot. Which by the way is the first site you encounter upon arrival here, at the Holiday Hills RV Park. We have the coolest boss ever. Mr Allen Bell said, we could use the mulch he had. And with permission granted, off went Mark to do his magic.
Lots and lots of mini piles
See those wooden steps - they travel with us. He breaks them down and installs them wherever we go.
Still looks sloppy, but it's getting there
He went through a lot of mulch. And the boss didn't mind
Doesn't seem like a lot but oh my. It was!
This is a great picture of the before.
Those decals on the RV will be coming off. We will be painting the entire Trailer soon!!
Really starting to take place.
Ahhhhhh... What a difference!!
Happy almost summer
We are loving our experience here in Coalville, Utah - we absolutely love Utah in general. We have seen so much already in the short time span that we've been here. But unfortunately like most, we have to keep local and not venture out so much due to the gas prices being what they are right now. It's $5.01 at our gas station Phillips 66 here at the RV park and we are not the most expensive one in this town either. And it's going to get worse so we are worried.
So to end this post on a high note. Mark fixing one of the million of things on our must get done before Oct 1st.
Holiday Hills RV Park hired us as their RV Park Host for this Summer Season. It's not a big RV park by any means and their set up is different from most RV parks, but we are in love here. The park sits beside the Weber River, (so you can imagine those sites getting taken FAST) with 42 sites. Reserve online
Our jobs involve cleaning the bath house, (his and hers), cleaning the gas stations bathrooms, (his and hers) 2 cabins and the general upkeep of the park. We are obsessed with making dang sure all the micro trash is picked up, (with the winds here it's not hard to find any, lol). LOTS of cutting grass and picking up branches (along with naughty campers who do not listen to rules about picking up their dog poop - we don't see that much, seems to be the single overnight campers) and filling up propane tanks.
Well today was like any other day here, with just an added bonus of fixing some bathroom lights. We love finding those extra things that need attention. Keeps us busy and wanted!!
The vent needs a good cleaning - we'll get that at the same time.
Out with Old and in with the New
Let there be solid light
Let's get these puppies cleaned!
Ahhhh, this feels great
Life is great here. The boss is awesome, the supervisor is pretty cool and the co-workers ARE AMAZING. We honestly couldn't be happier with this workamping position.
Wait... You're asking what workamping is? Well it's camping while working a regular job all combined into one location for a period of time. For us it's a summer position from May-Sept. We work for a spot and receive a paycheck too.
Pros:
-Making friends with co-workers and campers and the locals (gosh Coalville is FRIENDLY)
Sightseeing on your days off
-Participate in local events (holidays, concerts, shows, farmers market and in this case RODEOS)
-Some companies have perks.
-End of Season bonus for staying the whole season. This is huge for companies - we know so many people who have quit their jobs and left, leaving the company short handed and in this business like others that's not doable (some RV folk depend on that bonus for GAS purpose - it's also nice to thanked in that extra special way)
-Learning, what I love about Holiday Hills RV Park is that they are all about seeing you grow, anything you want to learn to do, they make it happen. I LOVE that about them.
Cons:
-Pay (it's close to $1000 a month - we are not greedy at all, but it cost us almost $1000 to get here and it will cost the same when we leave, so it doesn't leave much for savings) so definitely take that into thought when job seeking, especially with the cost rise on gas and even food and RV park prices have really gone up in the last 2 years.
-If you are looking for a 9-5 it is not gonna work. Campers will knock on your door all hours of the day (it doesn't bother us at all, but I can see how it would bother others). We'll be in the middle of something and have to stop dead in place and get called off elsewhere, so it's a lot of late nights because of it. Sure we can leave it for the next day, but we want the owners to know that they have workers who take pride in their work.
-Making strong bonds with folks and having to leave (I personally have a hard time with good-bye).
Summer work is easy to find. We were lucky, they found us. We had 12 offers, and we took the first one offered because we were scared. Lucky for us it turned out well.
Winter work is way harder to find. They go fast!! So start looking NOW is the advice we can give you. We are still thinking about winter. Because we are not making as much as we need we may have Mark look for PT work and I'll volunteer solo, but we'll see. Who knows, maybe my social media promoter side gig will pick up a bit. We are not stressed, we have options and we are together and know that everything will be ok even when it isn't. The cost of freedom is thinking.
RV Door Seals being Replaced on our 21 year old Travel Trailer
If you have read the post before this one, I'll just give a little snippet to what's going on. We get two days off a week and we use one of those days to have fun, (we just drive around and sight see - we don't go out to eat in exchange for using that $$ towards gas) and the other day to work on our RV. We always plan the night before of what is in the budget and what we can get done.
And now that brings us to day #2 HONEY DO Day. Simple day today. We are replacing the 20+ year door foam seal with some much needed new one. We went with the MD Foam Window Seal from The Home Depot (Parker City, Utah) and it was less than $5 a package and it took 1 1/2 packages per door for a total of $20. Doesn't sound terribly expensive but when you have a thousand other little fixes (and not counting the major fix I am so embarrassed to show you YET).
MD Foam Window Seal
Mark has to scrap, and clean the old foam off first. It wasn't too bad and it didn't take too long to get that part of the work done. He just uses a basic scrapper to get the job done.
Don't Grow Up, It's a TRAP is what his hat says.
Uggg look at our bedroom floor. And not just the garbage but that awful rug. That's one of our major projects we have to get done, are the floors.
So folks have been asking us what other items are on our project list. Oh boy, do you really want to know?
The entire front 1/2 of the RV needs to be painted and wallpapered
All window frames need to be painted black (they are white now)
Curtain rods and curtains need to go up
The kitchen needs a new skylight
All lights need to be updated with LED Fixtures
We need a new TV wall bracket for front room TV
The entertainment area needs to be painted
Bedroom floor needs replacement
Bathroom floor needs replacement
Kitchen floor REALLY needs replacement
Living Room Rug needs to be taken out and burned to death (YUCK) but floor needs to be replaced
Bench Backing needs to be replaced and eventually the bunch cushion needs to be replaced or upholstered (We got quoted $400 to $900 OUCH).
Bedroom Ceiling needs to be replaced
Kitchen counter (just 1/2 needs to be ripped out and rebuilt)
The wall by kitchen needs to be replaced
Would love a new stove (but now I'm getting greedy)
Would love Solar but that's really dreaming at this point).
We need a new awning (the one on now is damaged BADLY).
At this point your saying, just buy another RV. No, we actually love this one and it has a story behind it and it does have great potential, just not a lot of funds supporting it. And it's home and paid off. We just need to be more grateful and be ok with things and do the best that we can.
So, this was the simple project we opted to do on our day off. We do work on the RV after hours and in between day breaks (like taking the decals off the RV on the outside - yup... We are going to paint the outside of the RV and get our logo brand up on the RV. It will make it easier for our subscribers to recognize us while we are traveling. We can't do the major painting while we are workamping but we can get prepped. It's going to be extreme. I want a fun home for all to enjoy upon seeing it. Fingers Crossed.
Honestly, We Went to Home Depot to Get our RV Door Insulator
We get two days off a week and we always work on a plan the night before of how we use those two days off. One day is for FUN and one day is for the HONEY DO, (and that depends on the budget we have on hand). So we masterfully planned on going to Home Depot to get a couple of things and to budget plan price the other things we still yet need to get for our future maintenance that needs to be done.
So day one of our day was to go to the Park City, Utah Home Depot as our plan had for us. We walked out with, 3 packages of Foam Window Seal that we will be using on the doors. (we will be working on that today - HONEY DO day). Park City, Utah has a huge Home Depot and they have something, I JUST HAVE TO HAVE in which I am sending Mark to get Thursday night after work!! More on that in another post!!
We found Park City ReStore & Habitat For Humanity of Summit & Wasatch County to see if we could find some of items on our list at a cheaper cost (we need all the help we can with the number of items that need to be updated or fixed in our RV). We didn't find anything on our list, but we did find something I do need for our sink and bathroom drain, (and it was on my supplies list of upgrades I had on a separate list) a mesh strainer. To learn more about Habitats please visit https://www.habitat-utah.org/
Mark rolled his eyes. LOL
I got it for $1.00. Was it a sweet deal? ummmm yes, because we later made our way to Bed Bath and Beyond and found it there for $3 so yes indeed it was a money saver find for us. Score for me!! I just happen to have had a gift card of $25 that I was able to use a Bed Bath and Beyond and got our next HONEY DO item from our list. Also added prices to our inventory sheet of items we need to get our RV looking BETTER than it is currently. We will go here each day off we have off designated to getting our RV supplies. I won't talk too much about our Bed Bath and Beyond trip until tomorrow (we will be working on that project today - woot).
We then decided to go check in on a new friend that was one of our co-workers at the Holiday Hills RV Park until he found a new job at the Pepper Palace (also in Park City). Salvador gave us a tour, explained to us what was popular, and gave us taste samples of items he thought we would like best. We opted for two items: Egyptian Hummus Salsa (I'm sorry to say, we ate the whole jar late last night) and Pepper Palace Coffee Rub in which I can't wait to try out. We absolutely LOVE the hummus and we will be loading our RV with it before Oct when we leave Utah. We also got to meet one of the management team members Jarred Jeffries who was so awesome to talk to. He gave us a lot of him time and we can't thank him enough.

So if you happen to be in the Park City, Utah area you have to stop over there and give it a whirl, our experience was so much fun and yummy too!!

Oh my, my, my, the hummus was so good
And then we went to the hills to see where they would take us. We ended up in the East Canyon Mountain area. And that's where we found our next camping trip.
