What, tires AGAIN? For some reason, I’m thinking of an old Brady Bunch episode. You know, the one in which Jan exclaims, “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!” Except on this day, you, the loyal reader, are in the role of Jan. And you’re exclaiming,...

You’ve got mail — or do you? If you take the plunge and become a FULL-TIME occupant of your RV, life goes on. It still rains, snows, sleets, and hails. (And in our case, it now also leaks.) You still need to receive mail from time to time. Of course you...

Less is more. The old axiom “less is more” applies to many facets of life. Sure, there are a few notable exceptions. I think we all agree that when it comes to money, more is more. It’s pretty rare that individuals, corporations, or the government...

Let’s get one thing out of the way: I’m not much of a photographer. Oh, I own some cool cameras and carry around a sack full of Nikon lenses. But my still photography skills are limited. I’m more of a video guy. Hand me your cellphone, and I’ll...

To upgrade, the philosopher known as Beyonce teaches us, is to live. That’s the cool thing about owning an Airstream or any other RV — like a brick-and-mortar home, it’s a constantly evolving platform. With the simple flick of a plastic card, you can...

About 20 years ago, my best friend Mike and I loaded up my trusty 1985 Honda CRX (a tiny 2-seater, but you could cram an adult male bison in the rear hatch) and headed west on the first great cross-country road trip of our lives. We departed in early August. Our route...

Here’s a brief update from the road — specifically, from gorgeous Grand Teton National Park. I’m in LOVE with our current campsite. This is the finest camping locale we’ve enjoyed all year. We are surrounded by wilderness. We have a tremendous...

This video clocks in a little longer than our usual fare. I can’t determine what the ideal length might be for an Internet video. For some people, the shorter the better. (For you short attention span people, our shortest video on YouTube is about 9 seconds...

As we meander around North America, we always set aside a little time to stop in local eateries. It’s often rough on the waistline, but many fond travel memories are made at the dinner table. We’ve found all sorts of fun places along the way. Some new,...

Our visit to Amish country sent us back a few hundred years. While not quite the Wacky Wayback Machine of Amish land, Mackinac Island rolled the clock back at least a century or so. Mackinac Island is a charming tourist destination that’s distinguished by what...

Several years ago, my brother and his family lived in Detroit. I thus visited the Motor City many times. While we spent much of our time just hangin’ out in the suburbs, we also explored vast expanses of urban sprawl for which Detroit is famous (and/or...
