So when my husband took his new job in Houston, that’s where we purchased our RV, luckily there was an RV park right behind his work. It was super convenient! He could have literally could have walked to work. HA! So unfortunately we did not have a truck to attach it to transport the RV to the park, so we had to pay someone to move our RV. It was about $300 to move it. We got a spot and had it transported. One major thing that really sucked was that the park was a “adult oriented” park so in other words, they don’t like children. They didn’t allow school-aged kids at the park. Our daughter at the time was 4 years old, so not quite ‘school-aged’, so we knew we had at least a year to find somewhere else to live. So around this time Houston was still dealing with the aftermath of Harvey. Most of downtown Houston was underwater. It was crazy. There was quite a bit of FEMA travel trailers there for people that were getting help from FEMA, so that was a good thing. Then they got tired of kids being on property so they told FEMA to pick up the trailers. Kid-haters, I suppose. People, am I right!? I mean, when you go camping or “glamping” (camping in a RV) it is a family thing, not just an adult thing, you know? What are your thoughts on camping? What is it to you? Do you think it’s a family thing to do? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
Anyways, so some parks have amenities, which is awesome! Some are more family oriented, and it can be a blast every weekend. But, this park, eh! Definitely adult oriented. It was nice though. They did offer cable and WiFi, but it wasn’t very good. Honestly, they really didn’t have the equipment to make it accessible, and they didn’t care to fix it. Funny thing is as soon as it was my daughters 5th birthday in October, they went ahead and put a move out date on our account. SMH, it wasn’t even a new school year, she wouldn’t start until that following August, so we had a little more time to find a new place.
I do have to say that living full time in a RV you come across some amazing people, from all walks of life. It has been so enjoyable. I would even say refreshing, just to be around more like minded people, especially people that have made the choice of living full time in a RV.
Which we did up finding, and it was not behind my husbands work. We ending up moving further out which in my eyes was better. I am not huge city girl. I like small towns. Makes me think of that one Journey song. “Don’t Stop Believing”. Houston/Katy area honestly scared the crap out of me. More Houston, than Katy. We moved to Brookshire, Texas. The RV park was AMAZING. The other residents and the ladies in the office were really great people. I was sad when we decided to move yet again…..this time is was to Austin, Texas. Still here now and no complaints, besides price, but Austin is an expensive place to live.
Another park we lived at after our oldest turned ‘school-aged’
