What if you can’t become a full-timer?

Okay, so not everybody wants to live in their RV full-time, giving up their home and squeezing all of the worldly belongings into a 36-foot fifth wheel or motorhome.

Boler cruising

Recently a spectacular family event took place in Penticton, B.C., that included Elvis Presley, antique cars and classic Boler trailers—what a combination!

RV etiquette or common courtesy?

I have found RVers to be friendly, helpful and caring people and am glad to be considered one of them. However, there are some behaviours that can spoil it for everyone.

RV Etiquette

RV etiquette not only applies to overnight parking, it also applies to our stay in campgrounds, parks or even on someone’s driveway.

Getting rid of it

Downsizing. I am starting to hate that word. Downsizing. I seem to have gone through the process a couple of times and it never gets any easier.

An RVer’s budget

The price you choose to pay for your new home deserves careful consideration.

Choosing your type of RV

Each RVer, I am sure, researched their RV prior to purchasing—how they will use their RV will affect the size, style and type they will buy.

Working on the road

Supplementing their income is a common practice amongst many full time RVers and the term “working on the road” is used to describe what they are doing.

It’s that time of year

Yes, it is that time of the year when the snowbirds are heading south looking for warmer weather and the rest of us wish we could join them.
