I have been meaning to write the second part (the better part) of our trip to Melbourne, Florida to see our daughter and Gavin, our new grandson. However, my writing has been delayed by a web site move, a pinched nerve in my neck (I can't feel two of my fingers on my left hand) and other related work stuff. Also it is an anniversary, a sad...

I am inspired by “Gramps” and his “How it all started” blog. Gramps tells a good story of him and his wife who are avid campers who eventually found their way to a motorhome. I am not that guy.
I have never liked camping. I always figured if you were going to rough it then why go to a campground at all. To me it was always...

Over the years, I have done a lot of camping with my family, kids, dog and friends. With the kids, we have enjoyed a lot of under the tent camping, all seasons, including winter camping in the snow.
As the years have gone by, we also tried, Rental RVing, in class A, in a class C, with a folding camper, but at years pass by, definitely nothing is...

When my computer feels neglected it starts running through my photo files. One by one, pictures from our life and travels pop up on the screen. Some pictures fade in and out, others come in pairs. After a while they switch from color to black and white so I'm seeing them in a completely new way. They remind me of the rich life Louise and I...

The attached map shows our track and stops so far.
We are at Lake Whitney State Park to spend Thanksgiving with a cousin. The campground is top notch for a state park and filled up rapidly yesterday. It will be interesting to see the cooking that occurs today. There are bound to be a lot of deep fried turkeys. There is a burn ban so there...

I joined the FMCA this summer and truly enjoyed reading the blogs, so thought I'd share another newcomers adventures! I'm sure that the veterans will laugh and hopefully say "been there done that"!
After much tire kicking over a few years I purchased my first motor home, a 2005 Tiffin Phaeton, this past summer. The dealer agreed...

This is my first attempt at blogging. We have been a member of FMCA for so long that I have forgotten when we actually joined. We still work so unfortunately we don't travel far from home. We do like to visit the Georgia State Parks. Today the storm (Lee) has moved out of the area and the temp during the day is just fabulous for camping and...

This is my first time blogging. So here it goes. We are heading to Texas this winter for the first time. We have heard that it is very nice down there and the people are very welcoming to winter Texans as I guess we are called. We have spent the last five years of your motorhomeing for the winter in Florida, however, we thought we needed a...

This is my first Blog here on FMCA and I hope to come back from time to time to add more content.
In 2005, I was fortunate to have been asked to take a position as a Workhorse Ambassador since I was on one of their W22 chassis. Over the course of the program I attended several FMCA Rallies and spoke to a great many FMCA members in seminars as...

Hello! I left a black Dell laptop on top of my car Monday, June 28th at Mather Campground in the Grand Canyon. We drove from there to the visitors' center and then headed south on Interstate 64 South, headed for LA. I am thinking I heard a noise half an hour onto 64, and in retrospect, I am guessing that may have been my computer...

My wife Kim and I have been RVing for a few years now and are ready to trade in our 31ft Hurricane Class A motorhome for something a bit nicer. We have been looking at the manufactures information, but as you all know, manufacturer's tend to accentuate the positive and overlook the negative. So we decided to ask the people who live the RV life...

Getting in the right frame of mind to start putting the three-week-long summer trip together. We are still in debate over location and are in the process of pouring over pages and pages of travel guides. With the price of gas so high, we may be staying a little closer to home than usual, but our adventurous spirit is aching to get going. We loved...

First posting attempt. Here's hoping!
Am surprised by the continually falling attendance and the implication that carries.
Can only surmise membership is slipping, and therewith revenues, club viability, etc.
Am planning on attending GLASS in MI end of this month. Whereas it used to get up to 1300 coaches, last year it was down in the...
