Millions of people travel the countryside in RVs, and that trend shows no signs of slowing down. RVing leaves a smaller carbon footprint than traditional fly/hotel/drive vacations; plus, it’s a lot more comfortable and convenient. Prospective RV buyers agree that RVing allows for more family togetherness, a less-expensive vacation, and a great way to avoid the illnesses travelers pick up in hotels and on cruise ships.

The ultimate log book for RVers who want to keep great records of where they've been! Record campground information like: Hookups available Bathhouse conditions Amenities Road Conditions Campsite conditions Management/Staff Info Booking/Cancellation Notes Local Area Notes Sightseeing Notes and A LOT more! There's even extra space to add your own notes for each site! Great for RVing in: Class A Motorhomes Class C Motorhomes Travel Trailer RV 5th Wheel RV Class B Motorhome Custom Vans This book is an amazing tool for your travel adventures. We, as full-time RVers ourselves, wanted to produce something that would actually be useful for other RV travelers. Our goal was to create a place where you can record all of the great (and sometimes not so great) notes & impressions of your camping spots as you wander about in your RV. We made this book a place to store information but also easily find those notes again later, so we incorporated an easy-to-use referencing system, organized by U.S. state (or you can fill in your own regions). This way, when you need to look back on your notes from two, three, or even 20 years later, you will be able to quickly find them. Here's how to use this book: Log Your Stays: Turn to the first log and start writing! Use our prompted notes and checkoffs to record basic information and then also add your own notes as a refresher for your memory later. We didn't make space for every possible scenario (there are so many!) So, use the extra space to write down anything you think you might want to know later. For instance, you may note more things like low/high water pressure, road noise, or management/staff names & notes. Did you spend way too much on laundry here? Make a note of it! Did you see a sasquatch walk casually through your campground on Friday night? Make a note of it! And share the picture! You did get one, right? Our Referencing System: It's so simple! Let's begin with the Site Logs. Each Site Log has a number in the corner. When you log a campsite, take a second to record that site's Log Number in the back of the book in its reference section. Most reference sections are simply a state. However, some states are larger (and more popular) than others, so we broke them down into smaller regions for even quicker reference. For instance, we've broken Texas down to 5 regions: North, West, Central, Gulf Coast & Panhandle. Maintenance Logs: In the back of the book, there are pages dedicated for recording RV maintenance. Just record the date, service performed, mileage, and any other notes there so you have that information later.

Recently retired, they set out on a month long journey from Florida to Yellowstone National Park and back again.What is different about our RVing book? Let's just say that we learned that RVing is not for sissies. It can be great fun, but it can also be very difficult and sometimes downright dangerous. RV Adventures with Bill and Mary details the challenges we faced and the miracles God performed as He protected us from impossible circumstances...and almost certain death.Our advice: If you want to go RVing,It is best to - Go with God!Who will be interested in this book?

You will learn much about the process. Do you love to hear testimonies about the faithfulness of God? You will be encouraged to trust God, even when you face impossible circumstances. Whatever your interest, Bill and Mary's RV trip will be an adventure you will long remember.Before we take you on our journey, I would like to point out that my husband, Bill, and I are not new to travel. Years ago, we determined that we would not wait for retirement to see the USA or visit other countries. Too many people wait until they are no longer working and discover that they are unable to physically or financially travel. We have always been pleased with our decision. Our vacations have been very pleasant and relaxing. Probably the most challenging situations we ever faced were surviving the craziness of making connections at large airports and the time I caught a cold from a fellow passenger on a flight to Hawaii. I was sick for most of the trip. These inconveniences pale in comparison to the challenges we faced on our first RV vacation. Do I think travel will be like this in our future? I pray, not. But if and when the challenges come, I know that God will help us, just as He did on our first RV trip.Also Featured:Bill and Mary's RV TipsWe learned a lot from our first RV trip. In our book, we provide suggestions and tips that may answer some of the questions you have about RV travel.Questions and Concerns:* Will you probably need to purchase gas more than once a day?* How fast should you drive?* Will you use Cruise Control on your journey?* What about wind issues?* Are you always in a hurry?* Do you or your spouse walk into your slides when they are extended?* Do items in your refrigerator slide around when you do not have enough products to completely fill the door racks?* How can you stop items from falling out of the refrigerator when you open the refrigerator door?* Will you be constantly buying ice?* What about food? How did we manage food for thirty-two days?* How did we manage vitamins and medications?* How did we manage the laundry?* Would you like a dashboard cover to protect your dashboard?* Does the person who rides in the passenger seat complain about hot feet?* Can you trust your GPS system?* Have you ever forgotten to lower your TV antenna?* Where are my tools?* Learn why you shouldn't store all your tools in the outside cargo holds.* Who may have the best information to determine if it is going to freeze overnight?* How did we stay warm on cold nights?* What information do you need to write down before and during travel?* Are rest areas available on all highways?* Let's get serious. In this day and age with everyone desperate for peace and safety, how can you signal for help when you are in your RV?* Do I need to make sure no leaves or debris remain on the top of the slide before I retract the slide?* How did we pay bills while on the road?* Who can I trust when I need help?* Do you fear the thought of traveling in a small space with your family?And More . . .
