Some RVers that own smart phones made the purchase in order to enjoy access to games and social media. Others turn to the smart phone as a way to improve their ability to keep in touch with work or personal contacts through constant access to calls, texts, emails, etc. Some weren’t sure why they desperately needed a smart phone, but simply felt that the seemingly universal dependence on the tiny devices must mean they were missing something important. The expert recreational vehicle owner with even the smallest amount of smart phone savvy will be able to instantly assert that the most useful feature of this particular device is actually the easy access to RVing and camping applications. For those who are set against the smart phone, there are a few camping and RVing applications that will result in a change of heart.

There aren’t many of us that haven’t heard someone reference the fact that the oven “heats up the house.” This is particularly true when RVing. The smaller the space, the less effort it takes to alter the temperature. This means that using the RV oven is an important consideration. The need to avoid oven use depends upon the situation at hand. Some have no problem using the energy necessary to cool the recreational vehicle after the oven heats it up. Others aren’t traveling in areas where it is a problem. But for those who are RVing in popular summer hot spots where the RV needs to be kept as cool and comfortable as possible, summer recipes for the road that don’t involve the use of the RV oven can be a very important.

The majority of travelers spend most of their time in the RV during the summer. In most cases, this is coincidental due to the standard “school” schedule affording the kids a long break during the summer months before they start the next year of their education. Some find this situation regrettable. They fear the increased heat of the summer months and spend a large portion of their vacation time wishing they were traveling in one of the cooler seasons. For those who aren’t doomed to a glass half empty, the summer is actually a great time for RVing. There are far less road hazards. The majority of outdoor recreational activities are in full swing in one region or another. The increased time off means the opportunity to take time to enjoy the journey.

RVing is a popular mode of travel for many reasons, but one of the most obvious is the recreational vehicle’s ability to provide the traveler with a nearly endless array of outdoor recreational opportunities. RVers can enjoy any outdoor hobby from mountain biking to paragliding to surfing to hiking. In addition to the opportunity to enjoy such pass times, RVers have the option of using their RV to provide them with the means to spend time in less populated areas where enjoying their chosen outdoor hobby can be even more enjoyable due to the decrease in general “traffic.” This doesn’t make RVers anti-social; it simply means they are willing to accept that a popular sporting arena is not always the best place to play. Some would prefer to play the same game or activity in an open field or on a public trail with fewer restrictions and less chance of unavoidable bodily collisions.

It doesn’t take much persuading to convince someone that RVing in the Golden State is a good idea. California has been calling the names of adventurers since before it had a name.

The fact of the matter is that California has something to offer every RVer: sumptuous spas, celebrity sightings, beautiful natural vistas, culinary tours, wine-country, beaches, exceptional dining, historic sights, hiking, Hollywood, the Redwoods, Surfing, Skiing, various amusement parks and recreational centers, many National Parks and much more. The list of attractions available in the state of California could go on almost endlessly.

An RV is viewed as the home away from home. It’s often appropriately described as being spacious, fun and… downright obnoxious. Wait. That can’t be right, can it? Many people view RVs as annoying? One way in which RVers can help leave good impressions about diesel pushers, Class A RVs, Class C RVs, and other large sized RVs is to practice good etiquette on the road and at campgrounds. Teach your RV some manners!

Slide Rock State Park is a favorite for locals and travelers alike due to the unique combination of hiking through the scenic desert and ending with a splash at the natural waterslides of Slide Rock State Park. The park was originally the Pendley Homestead, a 43-acre historic apple farm in Oak Creek Canyon. Frank L. Pendley arrived in the area in 1907 and acquired the land under the Homestead Act of 1910. Mr. Pendley established an innovative and unique irrigation system that is still in use at the park today. The Pendley homestead is one of only a few still left intact in the canyon and serves as a great example of early agricultural development in Arizona.

There is much more to see…off the beaten path.

Previous articles in the series discussed how to keep your RV and the items stored inside the vehicle organized. Organized RVs allow travelers to maximize the “home on the road” potential of the recreational vehicle. Thorough organization can make a big difference both during trip preparation as well as during the actual travel, but the RV isn’t the only thing that needs to get organized. Now it’s time to focus on the RVer. No matter how organized the RV gets, the disorganization of the RVer can throw a big wrench into any trip.

It’s a brand new year. For many that will mean creating a brand new list of New Year’s resolutions. While there are many “popular” resolutions, one of the most common is the desire to become more organized. This particular resolution is seemingly universal mostly because it can be applied to nearly any aspect of your life. You may be thinking about getting more organized at work. You might be thinking about getting more organized in your approach to schoolwork. You could even see the New Year as the perfect time to get more organized on the road and that means getting your recreational vehicle in order.
