Bob has jury duty in Alaska for the entire month of November. So, it looks like we will stick around here at least until after Thanksgiving. (Yes, you remember correctly: I had jury duty in August.) We've had a request to include more travel stories from other RVers in the newsletter. I agree that's it a good idea. So, send us a story about places you've visited, your favorite campgrounds, or how you are otherwise enjoying your RV life and travels. We'll share them in the newsletter and on the website. Wherever you are in your travels, we wish you joy and prosperity, Coleen = = = = = RVing Tip Thermos bottles aren't just for keeping coffee hot on travel days. After you have your morning coffee, pour what's left into a Thermos bottle to keep it hot for later in the day. = = = = = RV Life and Travel Blog Be sure to check our blog frequently for website updates and between newsletter announcements.

National Park Fee Free Days in 2012 Gives RVers Free National Parks Entrance Free national park entrance, as well as free entrance to USFWS, BLM, and USFS lands, occurs throughout the year. The NPS is giving RV travelers and others free admission on these 17 days during 2012. ~~ The rest of this article, including the dates when the agencies are waiving admission fees, is posted on the RV Life and Travel website for you. = = = = = Watkins Products and Summit Group Bus. Info I grew up in Minnesota, where they make Watkins vanilla, pain liniments, and 300 or so other products. As a kid, we used them in our home every day. Bob and I still use Watkins products every day. We also now sell them. We need to earn a living, even while we are RVing. Part of our income comes from my being an Independent Watkins Associate (ID #362289) within the Summit Group. If you could use an extra couple hundred dollars a month, it might be something you'd want to do, too. ~ Buy or Sell Watkins Products ~ Build a Business with No Selling = = = = = Bob's Article The Magic of Solar Panels: Bob's True Fairytale RVing and Photovoltaics Story Solar panels play a big part in our full-time RVing independence. Here's Bob's story -- written as a fairytale, but very true -- of how we became full-timers and how we started with a solar system. He shares some background into our personal lives that I don't think we've shared with our readers before. ~~ Go to the RV Life and Travel website to read the rest of Bob's article. = = = = = RV Life and Travel Tip Instead of storing extra washcloths in a linen cabinet, I use them as cushioning between stacked kitchen items. They quiet rattles and prevent chips and scratches when used between nesting bowls and saucepans. = = = = = Want to Know More About Working While RVing? Subscribe to our Workers On Wheels E-zine. There's no cost. = = = = = Camping Tips – Assorted Hints to Make Camping Even Better Camping tips -- the little things that make RVing and camping go more smoothly, be more fun, and cost less money. These hints can all be used by RV campers -- and some by tent campers, too. ~~ Go to the RV Life and Travel website for several pages of tips. = = = = = Be Our Friend on Facebook = = = = = Positive RVing Attitudes Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. ~ Hebrews 11:1 Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. ~ Will Rogers = = = = = Privacy Policy: We do not sell, rent, exchange, or otherwise provide the addresses of our newsletter subscribers or web site visitors to others.
