What grandparent wouldn’t like spending the summer in your daughter’s backyard swimming pool with your grandchildren, especially over the fourth of July. And your son and his family flying up for the holiday.  Wonderful 4th of July, and it is my favorite holiday! Since we have been living in our RV, we have missed Halloween, Thanksgiving, X-mas, Valentine’s Day, Easter and Mother’s Day with our family. This is the hardest thing, besides the stupid desert. It makes me want to leave the nomadic lifestyle but my husband loves it so much and he tries to make me happy in other ways. But, while  we have been in Madison, we have been filling our days with lots of fun family things, appreciating family more than ever, which is a good thing.

I would also like to add that I do  like living in our RV full time as a housewife, other than being away so long from family.   And these are the reasons why:

Not much floor to mop.

Not much time spent on cleaning a small space.

No neighbors that I need to hang out with.

Never have to mow the grass.

Never have to pack up our clothes and bathroom items when we take a trip.

Always have our home when we go to weddings etc.

Can be close to or by lakes and rivers.

And for the first time starting this month,July, we are going to start hosting at a county park here in Dane county. It’s at Mendota County Park and it is on lake Mendota. The best part is we get to stay for free! I’ll let you know how that goes next time I blog.
