Travelling with pets…..

SPelectrictower0001M

We are re entering the travelling game since retirement, but with a “twist”. Kids are now all grown up and on their own, but our new family now includes two dogs, a Brittney Spaniel (Zorro) and a large Coon Hound (Chip). Do you publish a list of RV facilities that allow both short and long [...]

Verizon air cards

landing-now (2)

I just want to warn any snowbirds heading south this winter. I have used a Verizon air card (bought – no contract) for 3 previous years without any trouble. I had to go through the paperwork for activation each year since it seems Verizon dosn’t keep any records – oh well all worked till this [...]

Re: The Changing RV Industry By Dennis Begin

I read with interest Mr Begin’s article describing the loss of overnight RV campsites in BC and his six possible solutions. While many of these solutions would undoubtedly cater to his needs, the article nowhere offers a real solution to the problem – the operation of a seasonal drop-in RV park in BC, or much [...]

Bigger Isn’t Always Better

Bigger isn’t always better! Our Second RV season and the first vacation as the Burlindowbach Family In 2009, at the Earlybird RV show, we were on the hunt for a trailer with a slide as last year we upgraded to the 28′ coachman with no slide, and with a family of 5, we were tripping [...]

We have just spent a wonderful month in a great small campground outside Carriere Mississippi. Clearwater campground exit 10 from interstate 59 has full hookups and many of the sites border a pond stocked with fish. The location is 45 minutes from New Orleans and about an hour from the beaches around Biloxi. We found [...]

Kudos to Peden RV Superstore and Eric’s RV Performance Center

Hi Sheila: Kudos to Peden RV Superstore in Sidney, B.C. and Eric’s RV Performance Center in Sequim, Washington. We are full-timers and snowbirds and spent this spring and summer at beautiful Oceanside RV Resort in Saanichton in our 40 foot Monaco Knight. We like to think that we are well prepared. We had a 10:30 [...]

Great Tire Service

While staying in Moab, UT exploring Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, we discovered a flat tire on our trailer. When we asked the campground host for the name of a good tire shop, she recommended Chip’s Grand Tires, 312 N Main St. Moab, UT 84532 Ph(435)-259-7909. Although it was a very busy Saturday morning when [...]

Great Service

SP0013397M

Hi Sheila: We just returned from a 17000 km road trip to Newfoundland, New England, and points in between. I want to relate to you and your readers about an incident that beset us and the wonderful service we received because of it. By the time we had reached St. John, NB, it was apparent [...]
