RV Wiring Tips We've Used

I found this wonderful site with wiring tips:
http://rvingiseasyatlerchrv.com/2012/01/05/wiring-6-12-volt-rv-batteries-properly/

 it is important to know how to wire 12V or 6V properly and these are tips we used for our own experience...



This site, really helped us out big time. After last summer, we had 3 minor fires in our RV, from things that could of been done correctly. And so we really suggest you visit the link for wiring tips..

Fighting Creek Deli is Now Open and We LOVE it

Boondocking this year has been very terrible on us where food is concerned. No refrigerator use at all this year, so everything is either dry or we buy fresh. The only problem is that the nearest food store is 25 miles for food that is cheaper to buy or 21 miles the other way and pay double the price. In between that is a location called FIGHTING CREEK gas station living off fresh eggs, bacon and apples or oranges. Now we don't have to, their deli is now opened and we are saved.... Pricey but if you consider the gas to be used to travel it's well worth the price. Fighting Creek has taken the best care for us this summer. We love EVERYONE who works there. And during the heat wave, they were so worried for us knowing that our RV got as high as 102 and we had to stay inside to sew. They were our biggest cheerleaders this summer and we can't thank them enough for their wonderful service and then some...

Winter RV Work

Boy it's nice to have a lot of friends who care!! Waking up this morning and doing my normal things was a complete pleasure because I had a ton of welcome back emails... YES-YES-YES we are back to having electricity...

First we want to say this summer was a complete blast... The boss in Idaho is a true example of what a boss should be like. What a great experience we had this summer. Some bumps along the way but more on the personal end then anything - but with God's gift of patience and teaching we were on the road of where we wanted to be heading... We miss so many people already that are still back in Idaho. And we thank the neighbors who came the last couple of days to say "Hey can't wait to see you next year".... That truly meant a great deal to us!! And thank goodness for email/facebook that's all I can say...

The trip back was an easy one and we talked about the things we learned and the things we need to change for ourselves before heading back for next season. The thing we value the most is the change that we put ourselves through to be better people. By doing right and being true the blessings come pouring through and it was nice to be able to give back too!!

So OMG I get to start follow/read my fellow bloggers friends blogs and we are changing the way we blog to help spread the support towards other bloggers. Give back - give back!! We want to help in any way we can in the networking world... So welcome Cross Blogs Articles.... We hope that you'll take the time to read them and perhaps even follow their blogs - learn/spread/laugh/help you just never know what type of support you yourself can do by just clicking...

We are so excited too - we are almost at 100 followers... Wow a year ago I begged and pleaded for followers and here we are today!! Wonderful isn't it?
Here we are!! love my yahoo maps

So it's back to work for Jorge tomorrow - and don't feel sorry for him. He is jazzed to do it. His winter boss is a like his summer boss... We love that!! Easy work and aways a praise for him on how well he does. Great view and just a short walk to the hot house.... Oh yeah right now it's about the hot house for us.... The beard is gone and so is the dead skin... With a little help from Nivea (check out their web site) http://www.niveausa.com/ ...

So we are back in full force and back to blogging - we hope that you will check out the "Cross-Blog" Article well be doing daily in order to help support our fellow bloggers - you never know you just may find yourself on here...

 "Cross-Blog" Article
I was telling Jorge yesterday about how East Coast Women back in the early 1900's would bathe themselves in lemon and salt - to rid the smell of sea and to scrub off the dead skin... Really works!! This article was read and made the wheels circle - and looking at my husband who has shaved his beard and scrub the day lights of a dickens on his body is looking very refreshed a wee bit younger...

Bow Hunting Season

Bow Hunting Season 2011

Working up here in Idaho we see that hunting is a way of life for most of these folks around here. And for this family it's no different.  Dakota ummmm I would guess is between the age of 17-20 years old and both Jorge and I are amazed of him. Young he is, but very independant and seems to be a "FAMILY" first kind of fellow. Always greeting us each and every time as if we've meet for the first time. And in this day and age it's not so common for the younger generation. So this speaks a lot for his up bringing.

Well Dakota had a goal set  and has done so much preparing in the form of hiking (with the help of his Dad and brother) and scouting through the course of the season - and with that came set up and hours and hours of determination of getting his first bear. We do 100% support hunting within the ground rules of the letter of the law. To just simply kill for the fun is not our way of thinking. And we are happy to report the success of Dakota's first bear. Here is a video but I must warn everyone this is a hunter doing his job and so if you do not support such things then "DO NOT WATCH THE VIDEO" and also we do need to warn young viewers the language content so again if you do not like this "DO NOT WATCH THE VIDEO".

Dakota congrats on your first bear - I have been were you where that day oh so many years ago - that feeling will never leave you. I cried so hard that day while standing next to my father who beamed with pride  not only because of being his daughter (only) but I too also provided food for my family - my rug lives in Germany with my family.

Also rude comments will not be published - this way of life is not for everyone and this story is about a young man providing for his family and there is NO shame in that!!

Work Out Spirit

Who needs a gym? But we all need a Church...
Treat thy body as thy temple. This is one thing most of us fail in. Well sort of.... My goal this summer was to learn to knit better and lose some much needed weight. And all by myself I am exceeded my goals.
But I do my reading while working out on my log every morning (although for the last 4-5 days I haven't due to the hot weather). And yesterday I was back at it. Jorge became a bit emotional because as you can see I also do my scripture readings at the same time. I need the good book more then ever it seems. We do read together as a married couple and then I do my own studies as Jorge does and this is how I choose to do mine.
So Jorge took these shots and well maybe it may inspire you in some fashion...
