Life In An RV | FTRVing.com - Rvers Review of Monsoon Lagoon in Port Clinton Ohio




From the site: Life In An RV | FTRVing.com - Rvers Review of Monsoon Lagoon in Port Clinton Ohio

Splish Splash, dart n dash! Better have the energy of a kid because this park will have you splishing, splashing, darting and dashing. All that fun and the price won’t send you screaming and fleeing. The only screaming you might be doing is from the seat, of the go cart, you are driving like Dale Earnhardt Jr. as you whizz past your significant other in a mad dash to be the winner of a race you concocted up in your own head. If the go carts are not your speed just zoom on over to the putt-putt area. Who doesn’t love a little putt-putt; 18 holes in the heat just make sure to drink plenty of water. Too hot? Don’t let that stop you return your equipment back inside the air conditioned registration room/arcade room. Then, spli ...Read more...

From the site: Rob and Me in our Little RV - The Little RV Enjoys Idaho

I can only imagine the smells Grant is finding on that beach.  C'mon Dad!Our current campground is located on the shores of the Clearwater River. There is a bend in the river at the campground and a small, sandy beach. It's mid week and there is nobody here, just the way I like it.  Rainy Orofino, Idaho from aboveTuesday was a rainy day so we went for a drive to explore the area but it wasn't great photography weather.  We found a spot on the river where these guys were resting their horses. It's a beautiful morning here today so we are heading to our next destination, Montana. ...Read more...

........Rolling in a RV - Wheelchair Traveling...... - Women's Rights National Historical Park




From the site: ........Rolling in a RV - Wheelchair Traveling...... - Women's Rights National Historical Park

  The World Anti Slavery Convention was held in London in 1840. About 300 delegates, most from England and the United States, attended. At first women were banned. After a day of discussion they were admitted but not permitted to participate. The women who met at the convention decided to organize their own convention for women’s rights. Eight years later the first convention was held in Seneca Falls, starting the women’s right movement. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, who lived in Seneca Falls, wrote the Declaration of Sentiments which caused a stir across the country but changes were slow. 80 years passed before women were allowed to vote in federal elections and the fight for equal rights continues today.   The visitor cen ...Read more...

Roadtreking | The small motorhome lifestyle - The tech I use on the Great Lakes Tour




From the site: Roadtreking | The small motorhome lifestyle - The tech I use on the Great Lakes Tour

The tech I use on the Great Lakes Tour Lots of people have asked how I’m filing my Great Lakes Shoreline Tour reports and what tech gear I have on our Roadtrek Etrek. It was raining yesterday and we were stuck in cam so I did a short little video to show some of the gear I;m using. I’ll do more and show the drone and some other gadgets and gizmos in futrue reports but right w, here’s what was handy as I was shooting the report. You can see a list with links of all the gear I use at http://roadtreking.com/my-gear By the way, all the gear you see here – with the exception of the MiFi card – is my own, purchased by me at full retail.

Dave & Diane throwing caution to the wind - Our Aqua-Hot issues




From the site: Dave & Diane throwing caution to the wind - Our Aqua-Hot issues

Those of you that have been following our blog might remember that our Aqua-Hot system has not worked correctly in our new coach from day one. And even though Lazy Days put forth an effort to fix it, were not able to and after spending 5 months there we were not willing to hang around any longer in hope they could eventually figure it out and decided to leave and deal with the Aqua-Hot system down the road. After contacting Aqua-Hot directly we found out there is a qualified aqua-Hot tech in the Grants Pass / Medford area. And because we knew we would be spending a couple months here we decided to have it looked at while in the area. And as it turns out he is a mobile tech which made it even more convenient for us. For those of you that are ...Read more...

In the Direction of Our Dreams - A Fine Day in Grand Marais.




From the site: In the Direction of Our Dreams - A Fine Day in Grand Marais.

Saturday June 14, 2014Woodland ParkGrand Marais, Michigan     We support a community yard sale.   This morning the Grand Marais community has its annual yard sale in the Recreation Center building right next to our campground.  We really didn’t know anything about it until we saw people from the park walking over there so, of course we have to go and see what is. We make a donation and bring a few fun things home with us.  Someone donated all their Charles Kuralt. Most of them are audio but they should keep my mind off running.  I think the book on the lower left is particularly appropriate for David after his pie frenzy in the Leelanau.  We’ll donate them all back further down the road. &nbs ...Read more...

Tres Michelle - Our First Harvest Hosts Stay




From the site: Tres Michelle - Our First Harvest Hosts Stay

We've read about Harvest Hosts through the RV blog world for a few months now and decided we should join. Harvest Hosts is a membership (it costs $40 per year) with a network of farms, vineyards, flea markets and farmers markets listed for RVers to spend the night. It's an alternative to staying the night in a Wal Mart or Cabela's parking lot. The farms and vineyards allow RVs to stay on their property for one night and provide a pretty setting on their property!We used our membership for the first time when we left DC and headed north. We stayed at the Dove Valley Winery in Maryland. The property was beautiful and the owner was extremely nice! You don't have to buy anything because you've already paid your membership fee but, we bought a w ...Read more...
