We were hoping that our Norcold refrigerator would struggle along for just a couple more days, but when we woke up yesterday morning the thermometer inside the refrigerator said it was 62 degrees, and Terry could smell ammonia. So much for that idea. So we spent the day emptying out the Norcold and hauling food […]
I guess spring brings out dreams of travel and adventure because I’m hearing from a lot of people who are RV shopping for the first time, and also from a lot of folks who have RVs and are thinking about replacing them. When people talk about changing RVs it almost always because they want something […]
The bad thing about being workaholic self-employed fulltime RVers is that we tend to spend a lot of time working at the many projects we have going on at any one time. One day may find us touring the local attractions and collecting stories for future issues of the Gypsy Journal. The next day we […]
Yesterday started with a call from our friend Chris Yust, who was in New Jersey and headed toward Elkhart. Chris said that their Norcold refrigerator was at 50 degrees, and she wanted a recommendation to get it repaired locally. I made a couple of calls, got some names and phone numbers for her, and called […]
I give up! I’m not even going to whine and snivel about the cold anymore. It doesn’t do a bit of good anyway. I’m just going to buy me a team of huskies, hook them to the front end of my motorhome, and go on down the road. God seems to want me to be […]

By 7:20 yesterday morning I was pulling out of the Orlando Thousand Trails, taking the Explorer to Camping Connection to have the Blue Ox base plate and SMI auxiliary brake system installed so we can tow it behind our Winnebago motorhome. I actually got there a few minutes before their staff did, but once Tim, […]
Did I mention that I really, really hate getting up early in the morning? I’ve never been a morning person and never will be. I have never minded working long hours, I just always wanted the night shift, not the morning shift. But I was still awake at 6:30 a.m. yesterday morning. That’s two mornings […]
As RVers, we all find ourselves in strange towns, wondering where the good places to eat are located. One good resource for us is Road Food, both the book and the website. We have discovered some real delights there, from the Brick Pit Barbecue in Mobile, Alabama, to Don’s Drive-In in Traverse City, Michigan, which […]
