I wouldn't have an rv unless it had a home at home.
(The rv picture is of when we first brought it home. The neighbors broke into the shop and set up a surprise 'congratulations' party.)

X10 on I wouldn't have an rv unless it had a home at home

If I had the room, I would be a baby duck..i.e. DucklingFaceKoldman

Duck, I don't see the bar? I thought your bar blew me away, man this is just beyond awesome. If I ever move out of Dallas and build a new house with land, I will have to let you review my design plans


Update: In the meantime this is what I have today

We recently had a new driveway poured. 30 amp service installed. Next year will be a carport. The RV goes beside the garage.

Nice job I may do this!

Nah, you saw only the downstairs shop liquor cabinet.
Come to the Grand Canyon where I'll show you the shop lounge and we'll drink the last of the Kilmarnock.

I'm jealous of that pool you have. I really miss ours at our old guest house.
(You need fairies in that slot in that tree.)

You need to help me understand the fairies in the slot of the tree?

That Slot was created by a lightening strike about 18 years ago. It split the tree in half with one half in the pool and the other half about a foot from crushing the fence. Our insurance agent heard about it and cut us a check for $500 right out of his office to have that tree cut down and to by a new one. Yours truly took the $500 and bought Craftsman Gas saw ($100) and cut off the half that had turned our pool green I used the other $400 to buy beer while I slowly watched that tree try to straighten up. The slot is slowly sealing. Now that the RV is underneath, I will allow it to grow out and shape it around the RV until it is fully covered from the West sun.

That slot in that tree is too unique to not dress it up.

I like the screen. Is that something you ordered or something you whipped together? My metal carport / rv building is three full sides but front is open. Something like that would be a nice addition.

Happy to say we can keep ours at home now.
Its sad when you have a 40 X 60 pole barn and its to small to fit the motorhome.
Dummy me built the original with 14' side walls and with all lamabeams on the front, the openings are 12"
In December we added on 16 X 44 with a 16" wall.
It fits now.
Just finished installing the 50/20 RV hook up.
Shes plugged in and opened up.

We are fortunate to live on a corner lot, so we are able to store the motorhome next to the house. Half of the area we park on is easement so I can’t install a permanent pad or driveway. I’ve thought of installing a gravel pad and drive but so far have been unable to find a contractor that is interested in a job this small.

Just enough to get it out of the rain and sun.
