Meet our first RV, a 15′ pop-up we called Chalet Verde, or CV for short. (Chalet was the brand name and the inside was green). We had CV (which we could set up in 2 minutes flat) for 11 years after our backs no longer liked sleeping on the ground in a tent. Room for two…as long as you both didn’t try to turn around at the same time but it was dry inside and had a decent bed. When we decided to tour our country’s National Parks, we upgraded a little.
Meet WOW, our new land yacht which we bought a few years after we sold our boat. (Only one toy at a time – our motto.) WOW is a 35′ 2018 Tiffin Allegro Red 33AA with a 260 HP Cummings diesel.
Why WOW? Before we went to an RV show, a friend told us to look for the “wow factor” when choosing an RV. This one had it for us! Its full name is HT WOWLY – Happy TraVails Wandering Outside in the Wilderness Land Yacht. Or Whisper on Wheels…or some other of many combinations of WOW words. We’ll call it “WOW” for short.
Below is a pictorial walk-through.
Whisper in the captain’s chair
With 4 slides, we’ve been accused of having a dance floor!
Seating for 4 – but leg room for two
We appreciated the light cabinets and floor
Even a fireplace – for heat or just ambiance
The desk and end table used to be one desk…before Tom worked his magic
Just big enough
With a just big-enough shower; that way there’s no temptation to use too much water
There could be a stackable washer-dryer behind the sliding door, but we just opted for clothes storage
Paula sewed her magic with a National Park quilt and Tom brightened the room with a headboard of the backing fabric
