Memorial Day


The first offiical weekend of summer requires a great camping trip.
Imagine the whole family at the lake. You can start the morning with a hike. Make sure to take some feed for the small animals. Once back at camp you can get some eggs and bacon out of your mini fridge, and cook up a great camp breakfast on your three burner stove.
After breakfast you take the kids swimming. Maybe you do a little fishing to see what you can catch for dinner.
When you get back to camp you can rinse the kids off with the outside shower, and take a nap with the breeze blowing through the tent flaps.
As afternoon fades into evening you clean up your catch and cook it up on your RVQ Grill. After dinner you can take a walk down to the water and watch the animals drinking just at the edge. Then you can sit around the campfire and take turns telling stories until everyone is to sleepy to stay awake anymore.
I cannot think of a more perfect Saturday. Hope to see you out there in your pop-ups.

RV Hall of Fame










My good friends Pete and Barbra Bandt Recently went to visit the RV Hall of Fame. They E-mailed me these great pictures.




This is a 1928 Pierce Arrow Fleethouse Car. Only one of three built in Buffalo, NY.





They weren't able to go inside so they held the camera to look inside of the windows.







This is amazing.




The quality and thought that went in to building these.




I hope ya'll enjoy these pictures as much as I do.
