If you stay near Manchester, VT and you want the best meal you'll ever have, our favorite restaurant in the whole US is Johnny Seesaw's, just past Bromley Mountain.  It is not cheap, but if you want a really great dinner experience, try it.  It's where the locals go.  Although it's expensive...

Can't help with Boston but here's some other suggestions. For a trip like this I would make reservations for most nights.  You are on a limited time schedule and as the trip approaches you'll have done much research and have a fairly long list of places you want to go. After arriving in...

Oh, my!  How stupid am I?!?  (Don't answer that)! I have been trying to figure out how to use my sewer cleanout at home since it is on the wrong side of the camper and uphill.  Sheesh!  I have known all along about these macerator contraptions but I guess I didn't put it together that I could...

Sure!  Many people have the same problem and have added supplemental hose storage on the outside of their rigs.  I installed a 4" section of PVC pipe onto the top of my rear bumper.  That's where I store my 20' section of hose.  (The 10' section goes IN the bumper).  I have also seen rigs that...

My son and I are jealous.  I grew up in Pittsburgh and never went to a game.  Now that I'm older and wiser, (but no longer living in the area), I bought some tickets on EBay year before last and took my son.  Great time!

I don't know if this helps any of you but if you haven't registered your GPS with Garmin yet, you can get a free upgrade.  Their rules state that if an update come out BEFORE your GPS is registered, then you're entitled toa free upgrade after you register.  I just installed version 7 on mine and...

We have a bunk model and wouldn't have anything else with kids!  We have, now, a 16 and 8 year old.  They have their own space and can get in at any time.  When one or both are in bed we still have the rest of the camper including dinnette and sofa.  We use sheets and blankets on our queen and...

I hate to be a bottleneck, because I hate to be behind one when I'm not towing.  I have never had a problem leting people pass me.  What I try to do is not to pull over completely to a stop.  But, rather, at a reasonable straightaway, I'll slow down, put my right turn signal on, and inch over so...

It was just recreational flying but I did own my own plane, so I was serious about it.? It was a small four seat Piper and was very simple to land.? (But, it doesn't matter to the instructor whether you own the plane or not).? They aren't bashful in loudly correcting you.? Some things I got...

Yep, I always to the walkaround.  I used to fly and they would certainly drum that into your head.  But........ Two years ago, leaving a campground, did the walkaround, then pulled out of the site.  Before pulling out of the campground driveway into the raod, wife says, "wait, I'll go back and...

We watched the first few seasons of Survivor religiously but I eventually lost interest in it.  After a while they all seem the same to me.  Since Amazing Race goes to so many different places, each with its own challenges, it has staying power for me.  Different strokes.  :)

I think quasi pegged your problem.  We started towing our trailer without realizing the necessity of lubrication.  (I didn't want to get the ball all messy! - sheesh - the things ya learn, eh?)  Anyway, I'll be you've got no grease on that ball or equalizer bars and boy does that make a racket...

We watch almost no TV except maybe news, however, Amazing Race has really captured our attention.? This season is with families of 4 and so far is strictly in the US.? So far they have been to NYC, NJ, Lancaster and Washington DC.? Can't wait to see where they'll go next. It's neat to see them...

It's probably too late but if you are still in Kanab and like animals, don't miss a tour of Best Friends animal sanctuary.  It's just outside Kanab in Angel Canyon and is a remarkable place.

Last year I upgraded all my sewer hose stuff to the "Ultimate Sewer Hose".? It is great and I highly recommend it.? The hose is not only heavy duty but there is no twisting, etc.? All the components stay together by friction.? It's extremely easy and convenient to hook up and unhook.? Here's the...
