RV QUICK TIP: Grey Tank & Sensor Cleaning Besides water, an RV grey tank takes in lots of greasy, sticky substances. These include food particles & residue from preparing meals and washing dishes, soap, shampoo, toothpaste & even body oils. After a while, it can gum up your holding tank sensors, causing a false reading on your tank monitors. Cleaning out the grey tank and sensors is a really simple task, since there's a readily available liquid designed to break up all of the crud that can build up in the tank: automatic dishwasher detergent. The gel type is easy to flush down the drain, and goes right to work breaking down and dislodging greasy build-up. To calibrate the holding tank monitors in your RV, follow the steps o ...Read more...

RV Life On Wheels - "We are on the road again..."

From the site: RV Life On Wheels - "We are on the road again..."

Florida got the last kick in today, as rain continued most of the night, and into this morning... however it was still nice and warm, so not so bad. We were on the road at 9:00 after getting ready, dumping tanks etc. so all was good, well for the first 5 miles! We had no sooner settled into our travels along the Hwy. 95 North, when Judy came whizzing by me and motioned me to pull over. Normally we would have used our hand radios, but there are some technical issues there! After I got over, she jumped out and told me I had lost the rear AC Unit cover! Yikes. She said it blew off the top of the RV and landed somewhere way off to the right of the highway, probably in a bunch of pieces. Oh man... always something. We decided to carry ...Read more...

It's about time. - Going With The Flow.

From the site: It's about time. - Going With The Flow.

Our Location today is Tecumseh, Ontario.After three and a half months away we knew the day would arrive that we’d have to go home and today was the day. We both slept on and off throughout the night and were wide awake by 7:30. Not even all the fresh air we breathed in yesterday at our happy hour fire helped us to get a decent night’s sleep. What else should we expect for a pretravel night of sleep? This morning we met the couple that parked next to us as we were all getting ready to head for home. Their names were John and Marilyn Theil from Stratford. They had been delayed over an hour and a half by traffic congestions yesterday and had only pulled into the park around the time we were eating supper last night. We must h ...Read more...

ROAMING FREE 2010 - Moving On

From the site: ROAMING FREE 2010 - Moving On

The short-term workamping situation was not working out quite as we had expected, so we made the decision to leave that RV Park and continue our travels west.  We weren’t quite done exploring the Hill Country, though, so we didn’t want to move too far. We found the Junction North Llano River RV Park, about 80 miles away, and made that our destination.  We packed up this morning and made our departure without incident.  It was an easy drive west on I-10 and we arrived in Junction by 11:30.  The RV Park was easy to find, and we got checked in and set up on site #46. Our site is a nice long, level pull-thru with a covered patio.  When we left Boerne this morning, it was cool and overcast, but by the time ...Read more...

Our RV Adventures - Moving Day . . . Again

From the site: Our RV Adventures - Moving Day . . . Again

Today was once again moving day. We had to move back one space to the left. A real pain in the butt, but it means we go from paying $20 a night to paying $3 a night for the next 10 days. Since it was supposed to be 90 today, we decided to move a little earlier than we did last Sunday, so about 12:45 we hit the road, or at least drove across the road and then backed into the site next door. It took several back and forths to get in straight because the site doesn’t have a lot of room between the pad and the sewer connection.  As it was, when the rig was right along side the patio, the sewer connection was only about 6 inches from my rear tire on the other side. But it fit, which is what mattered. So we’re now parked until ...Read more...

When In Roam... - Amish Barn Raising

From the site: When In Roam... - Amish Barn Raising

I bet you are thinking, “Wow!  This should be exciting.  I love to hear about the Amish.  I didn’t know they were heading to Pennsylvania.”  Well, this is not about the Amish – in Pennsylvania or otherwise – and it isn’t really about a barn raising either, but when we got to Phoenix, AZ to visit Jen’s family, it sure felt like it. Let me explain.  We drove in from El Paso.  It was a longer drive for one day than we had intended, but we made good time.  Jen’s mom came out to greet us before we even knocked on the door.  We heard, “My girls are here!”  It felt like we were home again.  We caught up a bit, and Jen’s sister Diane ...Read more...

adventureamericas - A Dose of Mendoza

From the site: adventureamericas - A Dose of Mendoza

We rolled in to Mendoza like we had almost every other big city on the trip, in need of a few auto parts and maintenance; in particular a new car battery.  The past couple weeks of traveling with Home on the Highway, who was also (and still is) in dire need of a new car battery had been an amusing parade of trading jumps.  It was only by pure luck that not both of our batteries died in the middle of the desert.  Rolling in to Mendoza on a Thursday right before a big holiday weekend was not the best plan.  We spent two nights at a campground outside of town, just enough time to find out everything was closing until the following Tuesday. In the past when I had heard tales of Mendoza, it was of massive snow covered mountai ...Read more...

From the site: Riveted - Cord Clips for the Airstream Office

One of the times we went back to The Container Store to fine tune the closet organization, I saw these little "Cable Drop Cord Clips" and thought it might be the perfect thing to hold our laptop power supply cords when we convert the office into our dining room. Often when we return to work we end up having to fish the cords from the floor. They're perfect. They stick on, are totally unobtrusive, come in a variety of colors in packs of six, and they work! ...Read more...

WatsonsWander - Exploring and working fulltime from our Airstream - Arches, Balancing Rocks and a Trip Down Park Avenue

From the site: WatsonsWander - Exploring and working fulltime from our Airstream - Arches, Balancing Rocks and a Trip Down Park Avenue

Last week, before another three day stretch of crappy weather arrived, we hit the trail to explore more of Arches National Park. Most of the trails in the park are fairly short, which makes it easy to fit more than one hike into a single day. The short hikes also mean that we have plenty of time to be productive around the ‘house’ before or after a visit to the park. Despite the finicky weather, we have managed to hike most of the trails in the park. The two exceptions are the Fiery Furnace, which is a ranger led hike, and the Towers Arch, which is in the back country area of the park. We might skip the Fiery furnace this time around, but the Towers Arch is definitely in our plans for this week or next. Last Sunday we took a lat ...Read more...
