    2026/10/01
    On the road again! We dusted off the MH & hit the road for a short trip to Northern Michigan this month. Too early for fall colors but we enjoyed the shores of Lake Michigan and close by state parks. This month we interview new owners of a Noovo class B RV van. This small RV is in contrast to our large MH (44 ft vs 19ft). Which style of RV travel is for you? This plus many other RV topics are on the agenda for this month, so join us for some lively discussion.

    RV Navigator Episode 257 - The Love of Travel
    2026/09/01
    Another month at home so no first hand travel experiences however we are always thinking of travel and its benefits. To that end we found an interesting article with issues for travelers to contemplate. Is having citizens travel a benefit to society and the US specifically? Hear our thoughts on this weighty question. I have been a long time subscriber to Consumer Reports because I like to have impartial information when deciding on purchases. However CR does not test RV specific products like black tank treatments, so where do you go for unbiased info about RV related products. We have some ideas. Other topics like how to keep your rig catching fire also on our agenda this month, so for these any many other catch up topics, take a listen to this months episode.

    RV Navigator Episode 255-Shoulder Season-Not what you think
    2026/07/01
    Yup, it is shoulder season for us as Martha recovers from shoulder replacement surgery. The operation was successful, but it limits our travels to staying home for at least 6 weeks including all of July. We expect a 100% recovery within a year. But now, we take the time to reflect on many RV topics that have been percolating in the RV Navigator inbox hopper for some time. The latest from Starlink, new AC units, towing capacities, and selected disasters make up this month itinerary. Join us for a summer RV romp in the digital domain.

    RV Navigator Episode 253--Toilet tidbits from Japan
    2026/04/30
    Yes, we’ve learned alot while on tour in Japan. As a tourist, It is unlike any other country we’ve visited. Tokyo, our first stop, is one of the largest cities in the world and you’d think that one city is like another, but Tokyo is very different. Of course the language with over 2500 characters is impossible for us to use thus we have to rely on a few English signs and our phones with navigation. You’ll hear our extended impressions of this world class city as we share the our trials and tribulations while touring the city.

  • RV Navigator Episode 252 -10 Things we've learned from 50 years of RVing.

    RV Navigator Episode 252 -10 Things we've learned from 50 years of RVing.
    2026/04/01
    We’re celebrating 50 years of RVing and 20 years of podcasting in the 56 years of marriage in 2026. Yes, we started young and are going tn to old age with just as much gusto for RVing as when we started. We’ve RVed in 49 states (and I don’t mean we just drove through), most of Mexico and Canada. This in addition to extended RVing adventures in South Africa and New Zealand. With this experience, we thought that we’d share 10 essential things that we’ve learned about RVing that we hope will help others with less experience. We are not full timers, but we do travel for several months each year so our tips are focused on longer term travels - but apply to any destination. We hope that this sparks some lively conversation on our FB page. What are your favorite RV tips and tricks for making the journey more enjoyable?

    A month in FL at our new seasonal home with an RV garage. However, the RV spent much of the month in the paint shop getting some body work after an incident on the Alaska trip last fall. She has been restored and it ready to travel once again. As heppens when moving into new living quarters, outfitting them is a time consuming task. Home automation is coming of age, so new home gear needs to be automation compatible and Matter makes it happen. What? Well take a listen to get a better understanding of what this is about. TAir travel in the near future? Then you’ll want to hear about our experiences at the airport on oiur return from Mexxico. And yes we had a run-in with Mark Zukerberg.
