Many of the resources that I've been looking at showed the same information as contained at the beginning of this topic. Having a 45' motorhome, I was concerned about passing through those states and contacted the FMCA about it. It turns out that many of the resources that I've depended on in...

Hi All, I guess I wasn't on the attendee list, but was planning to attend the rally and stay in site M-8.  It turns out that I can't attend and M-8 is now free if anyone want it. Al

Las Vegas Motorcoach Resort Celebrates U.S. Armed Forces, Offering Special Discounts ~Active military and veterans receive discounted stays at the resort~ Las Vegas, NV ? Las Vegas Motorcoach Resort, the premier resort for Class A motorcoaches in the area, today announced new discounts for...

I think I'm gonna make a statement to them by giving them bags of dollar coins.  I knew they'd be useful for something!  ;D Seriously, I don't fit at the RV pumps at a busy station so I'll have to do something.  Al

By the way, depending on time of day, phase of the moon, or perhaps amount of alcohol in the customer service rep's system, you can ask to be "upgraded" to local channels and get it along with DNS.  Of course, they're only good when near you're service address. Al

Digital Antenna makes a number of wired and wireless boosters.  I use one of the wireless ones in my house. Al

OK, I know I'm getting old, but my favorite was always George Diamond's Steak House on Wabash in Chicago.  I know it's long gone, but for many years, it was a must for me any time I was in Chicago! Al 

Thanks, Marsha!  I have one, but don't always trust it on the less used highways.  I think generally, the US highways all have sufficient clearances, but there are always exceptions and 189 wasn't listed in it as a "designated route." Al

Thanks, Phil!  I would, but this trip will probably be a rush one.  Perhaps on the way back.  I would be hitting Provo area around rush hour and would rath take a slow, scenic drive rather than get stuck in bumper to bumper traffic even if it was faster. Al

Has anyone bypassed Salt Lake City, UT, between I-15 and I-80 using US 189 and US 40?  It looks like it would cut out a whole lot of traffic, but it's not shown as a truck route in Rand McNally and I'm a bit concerned about low bridges, especially in Provo. Al Griefer

I use eFax also.  I've had it for about 6-7 years and it's still free to receive faxes.  If I have to send a fax, I either pay through eFax or just send it from an RV park office when I'm traveling.  eFax sends you the fax as an e-mail attachment so a high speed link is not necessary. Al

It's not very far between Zion River RV and Watchman, about 14 miles.  There are a number of interesting restaurants and shops between the two including a giant farm store. The watchman NPS CG is just inside the entrance to Zion and next to the major parking lot. Al

Just a Thought.  Zion River Resort is within 10 miles of Zion and close to good restaurants.  It's certainly closer than Hurricane! Al

Thanks to everyone for a great rally!  We were only able to stay for a short time, but thoroughly enjoyed it!  In a short four days we were able to take Doc & Vera to Arches, Canyonlands, Dead Horse State Park, do some shopping and off road on Long Canyon and Shaefer Trail!  We packed alot into...

We stayed at the fairgrounds in Pittsburg, CA, a few years ago when we came up to a Sea Ray Club event.  It was pretty nice, fiull hookups and everything, but we almost got trapped by a flea market the morning we were planning to leave! Al
