This article is going to be short because I’m off to Pasadena, CA (after arriving home from Phoenix, AZ two days ago). I’m exhausted because I didn’t go by RV! I had to travel by plane which is way worse than RV travel. It may be fast, but it’s not a journey… it just gets… Read More

Is it possible to teach integrity, regardless of our children’s ages? Is it ever too late? What if we, the parents haven’t been the best examples? Can we start today?

RVing – Do I need to be ‘a fixer’ to be an RVer?
Hey Traveler, As I talk to prospective RVers around the country, the question that inevitably comes up is, “Do I NEED to be a handyman-type to RV?” What they mean by that is, do I have to be able to fix toilets, overhaul engines, and know which end of the hammer to hold in order to… Read More

I guess there are different opinions about what makes someone “good” — however, I think we could all agree on a few characteristics that… Read More
Saddle Up Anyway!
I think it was John Wayne who said, “Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.” I know that’s what RVing is all about because the truth is, sometimes RVing scares me to death. I feel a little nervous right now as I pack the beast for a month long speaking loop. In… Read More

The Ducks Will Get You
Hey Aspiring RVers, One of the most bizarre RV incidents we experienced was when a full-grown turkey smashed through our windshield near Cleveland, OH.

Picking the Right RV – Part 2
Hey Aspiring RVers, Today, we’ll discuss different RV options and types. RVs are like pizzas, there’s a kind and variety for everyone.
