All those who hate things falling out of your RV refrigerator, raise your hand. Loading the refrigerator in our Class C for a three-week trip became a game of Tetris while I utilized every inch of precious space in that thing. Then we bought our new to us Phaeton and holy cow, it was like…

Gadgets & More Gadgets!
It’s Gadget Week! I’m sure you have your favorite must-have gadget in your RV. You know, the one thing you will bring out and tell your camping neighbor how invaluable it is and how happy you are to have it. We have a few of those as well! First up is THE TRACKMAT. It’s so…
RV GPS
For many people, gone are the days of road trips with a folded map or an atlas opened wide on the passenger’s lap. Mark and I took many trips that way when we were first married. If we were being super fancy, we went to AAA and got their “TripTik” spiral map. That was always…
Explore Safely
We had a nice twenty-mile ride Saturday morning. It had been a while and it was good to be back in the saddle again. There are no headphones when we ride as we need to be able to hear cars and trucks around us. Aside from the noise of the wind, and man, Saturday’s ride…

E-Z Hook
People often post questions on different forums about “must have” items for their RV. The responses range from a plethora of tools to wine openers and more. We also have a list of things that are so important they stay in our Phaeton. Yes, tools and a wine opener are on that list. So is…
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
TPMS, that’s sexy talk. But seriously, there is nothing sexy about a blown tire. They always happen at the most inopportune time and for us, in the middle of nowhere. Like 100 miles east of Denver on Interstate 70 middle of nowhere. Thankfully, blow outs were only an occasional happening. Our first blowout was on…
Spa Day
Mark’s girlfriend, aka our Phaeton, just had a luxurious spa day. She’s a lucky girl. Every February Andrew and his wonderful crew from ANS Detailing work their magic on this pretty girl. Mark found Andrew shortly after we bought this new girlfriend and we’ve been using him ever since. He is based out of Scottsdale…
