What a year it's been as a full-time RVer

News, information and advice for RVers since 2001 * RVtravel.com
 
Route 66 Adventure Handbook
A trip down Route 66 is on the bucket list of many RVers. In his fifth edition, Drew Knowles has included it all: magnificent architecture, natural wonders, Art Deco masterpieces, vintage motels and cafes, unique museums, offbeat attractions, fascinating artifacts and icons, and kitschy tourist traps. The addition of city maps, showing the multiple paths of Route 66 and displaying the exact locations of points of interest, is a major improvement over the last edition. Learn more or order. 

Casino Camping

RV parks at casinos are popular among RVers. They offer modern, upscale facilities at reasonable rates. Discover hundreds of RV-Friendly casinos throughout America. Learn which casinos have an RV park and which ones allow free overnight parking. 


The Long, Long Trailer DVD   
As they travel across the United States, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz learn that everything that can go wrong does go hysterically wrong for the first couple of comedy as they try to celebrate their honeymoon on the road.

RV Camping in Corps of Engineers Parks
Of all the public lands, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has some of the best parks and campgrounds available. In fact, they're the largest federal provider of outdoor recreation in the nation. This guide is perfect for RVers because all the hike-in, boat-in and tent only camping areas are not included, making it very easy to locate campgrounds that can accommodate RVs.

RV Travel Newsletter. Issue 824
Dear Subscriber,

A brand new issue of the RVtravel.com newsletter is hot off the cyber press. As usual, we have a ton of great information for you including the latest news, an essay by our editor, tech tips from RV experts, and much more.
In the issue. . .       

Editor's corner:  
The last year has been a great adventure for Gail and me as full-time RVers, especially the last five months. In early July, we departed from Seattle to Hershey, Pennsylvania for the giant RV show. We then continued on, at first south, then southwest, staying for one to three weeks at a time in RV parks in Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas and now Texas. It's been a huge eye opener, a window into a changing America.
