Another fantastic season of snowbirding down south in our RV is over. Over the course of 5 1/2 months on the road, I clicked the shutter hundreds if not thousands of times. Most images turned out to be duds or humdrum. But every once in a while the lighting and mother nature cooperate. I happen to get … Read more
When passing through the Redwoods between Eureka and Crescent City on the northern California coast we like to stopover and camp at Elk Country RV Resort.

Two years ago around this time, we camped at a unique little state park north of Deming, New Mexico called the City of Rocks. While enjoying the beautiful high desert scenery, several other campers told us about another New Mexico state park to the south called Rock Hound State Park.

After a long drive south it’s nice to hunker down in a resort type park and treat ourselves over the Christmas Holidays.

How It All Started On June 15th, 2011 we hit the road setting off on a planned one year RVing trip of a lifetime. It had been a longtime dream of mine to travel around the US and Canada in an RV. I didn’t want it to be a hurried couple week vacation. I wanted … Read more
This is our third summer in a row spending time at Thunderbird RV Park out on the Tyee Spit in Campbell River BC. We absolutely love the park, town, and surrounding area. One of my favorite things to do is get up early around 7AM grab the beagle and take a walk along the waterfront. … Read more
Introduction We have full-time RVed for five awesome years now. In each of those years, we have headed south for the winter, leaving behind the cloud and rain of our northwest summer haunts on Vancouver Island to travel the sunny southwest desert. Lately, I’ve had more than a few folks ask “How much does your … Read more
Another stellar RV snowbird trip is in the books. This season’s adventure spanned 5 ½ months from early November to late April and saw us venture as far south as Yuma, Arizona. We covered approximately 4000 miles and visited 7 states. Compared to other snowbird seasons, though, we covered quite a bit less ground. Preferring … Read more
As we make our way back to British Columbia from our winter haunts in the US southwest we love to travel Highway 101 along the Oregon coast.

A while back one of my subscribers to the Love Your RV! YouTube channel asked if I could record a “Day in the Life” style video.

Over the course of almost 5 years of full-time RV living, we have had a chance to find out what we really need to pack and what we can do without. The first year we seemed to take everything under the sun. Much of it just sat unused. Every year before heading out for our … Read more
