“Not all those who wander are lost,” so wrote J. R. R. Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings.

It is so true when it comes to RVing. We love to meander, to take roads less traveled, off the Interstate. But even the Interstates are fun, especially out of urban areas.

As Jennifer and I made our way west this week to attend the Family Motor Coach rally in Gillette, Wyo., we realized something about our wanderings:

We love to drive.

That is so weird for me to write because when I commuted to and from my job in Detroit from my suburban home for more than 30 years, I hated driving.

But in our Roadtrek eTrek touring coach, I love to drive.

So does Jennifer.

We’ve tried to explain it to people. Their eyes sort of glaze over.

So, we figured, maybe if we took them along, virtually, maybe they’d understand.

So we made this little video that shows just why we love to drive our RV.
