Winter RV camping safety
RV Camping Share    
Most folks feel pretty comfortable and self assured when it comes to their personal safety while winter RV camping. For one thing, RV’s have safety equipment such as electrical system fuses and
circuit breakers, and detectors for carbon monoxide and propane leaks. These devices are designed to protect equipment and possibly save your life when functioning properly. Winter RV camping adds elements into the mix of safety that you need to take into consideration and remember because detectors, fuses, circuit breakers etc. can fail putting your life in jeopardy.

Dealing with formaldehyde in a new RV
New RVer
Share
If you buy a new or nearly new RV, you may find yourself troubled by formaldehyde gas. Found in items such as plywood, particle board, and other pressed wood
products that are commonly used to make furniture, cabinets, wall paneling, shelves, and counter tops, its use is not uncommon in the industry. As these products age, they "off gas" and the smell of formaldehyde can be objectionable, and to some, the gas itself can be dangerous, causing anywhere from irritated, watery, burning eyes to difficulty in breathing.

Safe, solo and self-protected

I never felt unsafe traveling alone, said Kathy Frazier, an RV blogger. I had roadside assistance, a cell phone, a CB radio, a lockable trailer, and I remained vigilant of my surroundings. I also had a tire iron close at hand! I don't carry a tire iron but since I have years of aikido training.

Joshua Tree National Park in California is an often-overlooked treasure
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Share
Yosemite, Yellowstone and Grand Canyon get the publicity, and the visitors. But there are plenty of lesser-known
national parks that offer gorgeous vistas and pristine back country, far from the maddening crowds. Joshua Tree, Big Bend, Capitol Reef, Isle Royale, Kenai Fjords and Theodore Roosevelt are national parks that may never be the stars of a Ken Burns documentary. But each offers its own charm, and you won't find a traffic jam at any of them. In fact, Kenai Fjords in Alaska and Isle Royale in Lake Superior have no traffic at all; you explore them by boat or by sea plane.

Wining and dining

I have to admit, I'm a self-proclaimed wine snob, according to MotorHome writer Denise Santoyo. Living in California, I was weaned on Napa Valley vintages and Sonoma chardonnays. When I went to culinary school, I discovered the joys of French and Italian wines — Bordeaux and Burgundy, pinot noir and pinot grigio, all with a delicate, complex body and flavor that seemed to put my native California varietals to shame. I would drink French or Italian wines, and
nothing else. Happily, all that changed during a recent visit to Michigan's wine country.
