ANOTHER MILESTONE - 5TH YEAR LIVING FULLTIME IN OUR CAMEO

Currently in Buffalo WY (Low 40 Rainy High 49) 

On September 10, 2009 we spent the night for the first time in our Cameo. Except for about a month and a half when we were getting service and we stayed at a hotel we have lived in the Cameo.

On this our 5th anniversary we are fighting a 'fault in trailer wiring' resulting in no trailer brakes. A new heavy duty socket and plug assembly is being added to the Ford and Cameo during our stay in Buffalo. We found another possibility for problems and that is where the socket for the truck bed was spliced into the main power. This splicing was not waterproof so water and road chemicals could have leeched into the connections and is a possibility for our problems. After we get all this fixed other than the brake controller outputting too much voltage all other possibilities for the truck have been eliminated.

Living fulltime in an RV is always easier when you are not having problems and we got spoiled by having relatively few problems the first four years, but we have made up for that since.

We thought we would share some of our favorite photos over the years. There are so many favorites it was tough to choose.


















With all that we've done there is still a lot to see. Next summer is a big trip to Maine and then down to Florida for the winter. At the end of that we should only have 3 or 4 states left to visit. 

Even with all the mechanical problems we are not ready yet to hang up the keys so maybe we will see you on the road sometime.

Till next time,

Bob and Jo

  1. I knew you'd have to include at least one food picture. ;)

    I had my eighth anniversary of living on the road this past June, and I'm not ready to pack it in either.
