Everything is on board except the morning grooming articles, us and
little Kellie. I won't be on the NG as I don't have night minutes on the
cell phone. (We preferred to keep our old Single Rate plan that gives us
more towers than the America's Choice without roaming or LD from ...

I've seen here, and on the Escapees Forums where people have asked what full
timers do for vacations. I think I've found one example.
In the last year we've moved the rig from one place to another 83 times. We
are now in a Passport America park just outside of Bangor, ME. A very ...

I want to take my family to Cape Cod next year.
My first thought is rent an RV for the 2 weeks; but if hotels are the better
way to go, just say so.  One things for sure, I'm not trailering from
California to Cape Cod and using my own trailer; we'll fly thank you very

It's 5 am and I'm afraid I'm done.  I'm just bone-weary, that kind of
tiredness I felt at the end of my father's funeral after the several
days of frantic activities had held off the sadness and fatigue.

Dear Mr. Bush:
Any idea where all our helicopters are? It's Day 5 of Hurricane Katrina
and thousands remain stranded in New Orleans and need to be airlifted.

This last weekend we went to a RV show and on the way home stopped by
an RV lot we had never visited before.  My wife and I have a 26ft
Wilderness travel trailer and a Chevy Silverado 1500.  We've been
dreaming about a fifth wheel and from time to time go out and look at

FOX News just broadcast the press interview that Secretary Rice held
earlier today.
She is in charge of coordinating assistance from abroad.
What a performance, what an example of competence, what a shining

We are going to open our house to a refugee family.  While we have
made this decision we are going to make sure they are compatable with
us since they could be with us for a year or more------no smoking, no

So- are you getting much rain there yet? How about wind?

I am thinking about finding a place to leave my 32 foot travel trailer
near Tillamook so I can go there on weekends and fish. I don't want to

Last week I went to roll up my awning and it wouldn't roll up by itself as
it had in the past.  I had to hand roll it up to a locked position which

I'm guessing there's a spring that came undone. Anyone know if this kind of
