RV 101 This Month: June 2017

To me the term "RVing" always meant loading the RV and hitting the open road for another adventure in the RV. That changed a little when we purchased an RV lot on the NC coast last year. We bought a used 5th wheel trailer to put on the lot and we added a 10' X 20' screened enclosure. It's like having a small apartment at the beach. This is a new type of "RVing" for us. It's only a 90 minute drive from our house and we really enjoy spending time there. It's like having the best of both worlds. If we want a relaxing weekend to just unwind we head to the beach trailer, and when wanderlust hits us we load up the RV and hit the open road. I guess the term "RVing" has different meanings to different people, but all that matters in the end is ...

It took a while but warmer weather and camping season are finally upon us. Last month I de-winterized the RV and went through my spring checks.

Be sure and read this month's feature article to see how the antenna installation went. With warmer weather ahead it's time to prep your RV, plan some RV trips and go have some fun! If you did not prepare your RV for this year's camping season you can go to last month's article for ideas on what to check. ...

If you follow us you probably know this is the time of year I talk about RV spring preparation. For some readers April might be a little too soon for this, but for many other RV owners April signifies the start of another adventure packed camping season. When you prepped your RV for winter storage you most likely winterized the water system and performed some preventive and routine maintenance on other components like batteries, tires and the exterior. Now, after the RV sat in storage for a period of time we need to get it ready to hit the road again. This month's feature article will concentrate on some post-winter checks that I feel are essential to getting the RV ready for the road. ...
