I’ve written previously that it’s the best of times, and the worst of times. (If you’re going to rip off a writer, why not Dickens?) Unfortunately it’s the “worst” part of that equation that dominates our headlines, and often our...

You’ve seen our videos here on LongLongHoneymoon.com. Now you can see us in your living room! (A scary thought, no?) Kristy and I will make a national TV appearance on HGTV’s annual RV show… During the filming of the show, a TV crew followed us (and two...

My love for technology and gadgets is well documented. I’m usually an early adopter when it comes to this stuff. Confessional case-in-point: in 1995, I made the unfortunate decision to install Microsoft Bob on my PC. We can’t be absolutely certain, but I think I...

We live in an area of the country that rarely sees snow. What often passes for snowfall here could easily be mistaken for dandruff. Of course, TV weather guys LOVE to PREDICT snow. If a local TV weatherman so much as mentions the FIRST SYLLABLE of the magic word,...

Over the past couple of years, we’ve managed to stock our RV with a variety of useful items. A few of these products have achieved “must have” status, in that we wouldn’t go camping without having them on board. Since we often receive questions...

As you might imagine, the past year has been no barrel of laughs for the RV industry. If Hollywood ever makes a feature film about this era, it will fall squarely in the “disaster” category. There’s been a perfect storm of events that have conspired...

The Bambi is arguably the most widely admired Airstream model ever built. From a design standpoint, it secured its claim to fame by becoming a featured display in New York’s Museum of Modern Art (MOMA). It’s sleek, it’s round, it’s pleasing to...

Maps. No great American road trip is complete without ’em. Or is it? Sometimes it’s tempting to think we can leave the maps at home. After all, these days they’re packing GPS units in cereal boxes. And GPS units have maps, right? Not so fast, my...

As the clock winds down on our final day in Buenos Aires, I thought I’d jot out a few last minute notes about our trip. Some of these notes will eventually work their way into the script for our Argentina videos. Producing video is a time consuming process. But...
