 Having a foodsaver is so valuable. When using the foodsaver there is never the problem of freezer burn, spoiled food, and of course, having food available when you want it.
Whether you are at home or traveling in your RV, take advantage of all the sales of perishable food at the grocery store and save money [...]

Cove Resort RV Campground at Fish Lake in Washington State

We love to drive our RV to Fish Lake near Leavenworth, WA.  There’s a great RV Campground, the Cove Resort, which surrounds a little cove and is nestled in the woods. 
It’s family owned and run. They can always give you good advice about fishing; where to go to pick mushrooms, where to drive on roads to look [...]

One of our favorite places is Washington State.  And one of our favorite places to go in our RV is Leavenworth, WA.  If you haven’t been there, you should go.  It’s a quaint Bavarian village at the base of the 8,000-foot high Cascade Mountains.  If you come from the East, you come through the rolling vistas of apple [...]

Cleaning and polishing your RV is something we don’t always look forward to.  Having the proper equipment and polishes help. When having the equipment we need to do the job easily and well, we don’t mind doing it at all. 
 A long handled brush and telesteps, 1400 T telescoping extension ladder are most helpful and make the job so much [...]

If there was one thing we could do without, it would be dumping waste. I use to dread it, having to clean the stinky slinky was the worst part after dumping .
Setting up for dumping was not fun either. First, making sure the stinky slinky would reach the dumping connection, and if it wouldn’t another [...]

You have had a ball making a big catch, you have cleaned and filleted your fish and now it is time to store all the fresh fish you don’t eat that evening.
Fish aren’t easy to keep fresh tasting.  The old way was putting the fish in a milk or orange juice carton and then filling it [...]

Taking Home-Cooked Meals on the Road

 
 
Before my family and I take our annual camping trip to Niagara Falls, I get busy in the kitchen. Although I’m used to making home-cooked meals each night for my wife and sons, this is completely different. For days at a time the house is filled with the most delectable fragrances of food cooking. Unfortunately, [...]

Now it is time to enjoy your new friends with some Margaritas (they taste so good).  Imagine sitting at your picnic table and mixing margaritas with your  portable margarita blender.  What fun telling stories and getting to know your fellow campers better. 
Your fellow campers [...]
