There’s several things we’ll need to check into, regardless of what trip we take. STATESIDE We haven’t been to the US in our RV in a long, longContinue reading “Mindfulness RV Trip Planning”

The Camping Season that Went Sideways
Sorry for the radio silence…read on to discover why. Earlier this year, we’d mapped out a plan to do a lot of camping in Alberta. We still did a lot of camping, but most of it was for one reason: we were moving cities. In April, we decided to move. Fed up with big cityContinue reading “The Camping Season that Went Sideways”
Last Camping Trip For 2022
Not Exactly As Hoped…Or Advertised… We had a not so great last camping experience this past weekend. We were at Half Moon Lake RV “resort”. We started out pretty hopeful this would be a nice place to camp as it was on a lake, and the drive wouldn’t be too bad to get there. ThingsContinue reading “Last Camping Trip For 2022”
S’mores and Stretching in K-Country with Friends
We live close enough to Kananaskis Country that we have camped and gone for day trips there several times. In 2017, we had a great time camping there for the weekend with friends. This weekend was the start of our vacation; we carried on after the weekend to Clearwater B.C. https://ourhotelonwheels.ca/2021/04/15/wells-grey-provincial-park/.

ROAD TRIP REPAIRS
We’ve had our share of Road trip RV repairs. On our RV trip to Southwestern US, we shelled out for two sets of tires. Also, our RV converter went in Idaho; we stopped in Vegas to try to order one, but it was one week for part to arrive, so we made do with aContinue reading “ROAD TRIP REPAIRS”
Moose Jaw and Having a Gas
In 2008 we took our RV to Moose Jaw, Sask. It’s a long drive for a long weekend but we took an extra day so we had a 4-day weekend. We stayed at a lovely campground called “River Park” in the Wakamow Valley near Moose Jaw. https://www.wakamow.ca Moose Jaw is home to “Temple GardensContinue reading “Moose Jaw and Having a Gas”
A Mouse in The Blender and Other Critters
A number of years ago we were camping in British Columbia. I’d just finished brushing my teeth in the bathroom and came out into the main part of our RV, only to notice my husband with our RV door open, dumping something outside. He came back into the RV, holding our blender. He’d pulled it outContinue reading “A Mouse in The Blender and Other Critters”
Staying Fit While On An RV Road Trip
No need to pay drop in fees at the gym while you’re on the road in your RV. With a few simple pieces of equipment you can continue your workouts in your RV, or outside at your site, if the weather’s favorable. I brought some hand weights, resistance elastic, and a small ball along withContinue reading “Staying Fit While On An RV Road Trip”
Toilet Talk
“Nope” I muttered as I walked into the room. We’d been journeying through Arizona, Utah, and other Southwest States and were currently on our way to Wyoming. We pulled into a name brand gas company’s gas station in smalltown, Arizona, to fill up and empty out. As we typically try not to use our ownContinue reading “Toilet Talk”
