Check out Pinterest--looks of RV-related pins!

I completely agree with Oscar Mike.  If we felt we had to spend $40-50 to park overnight at Wally World, we'd go to a locally run park where we could have a hook-up. For the amount of money, we'd probably get a nice hot shower too!  Or we would have joined the Elks & we'd stay in their lot.     

Good to know, Kenz!  I think we've decided to cover the trailer. 

I'm so sorry this is happening to you & your family.  I completely agree with ArdraF.  Try to rent your house--the rent in Chicago sounds too expensive and your circumstances are extraordinary.  Try to focus on immediate challenges.  I read & enjoy the blogs of many full- and part-timers. ...

The hair dryer was the key!  It took maybe 30 minutes to finish those last two stubborn decals!  Thank you for that advice!

Whew!  It's a mystery to us why Northwood Mfg. carried the decals from the sides of the trailer onto the windows but they did.  They block our view from the sofa, dinette & kitchen & they're not transparent.  So, I'm scraping them off.  I've found that the most efficient tool is a scraper with a...

Thank you for your reply.  I appreciate your insights.

Jim & I decided to purchase a cover.  With the maple tree nearby dropping leaves, etc. it seems like a way to avoid some roof cleaning.  Thanks for your input, everyone!

...and the reality is that fulltimers never have a cover on their RV's.  Guess we'll save some $$!  Thank you for your feedback.

We're picking up our new Nash 24M this Friday & are curious about whether or not we should buy a cover for the trailer, considering it has decals & will be sitting in the driveway near a big maple tree.  Also, I've heard that tire covers should be breathable?  Do you agree & if so, which brand...

Three days is not a lot of time to spend in Yellowstone--you'd just scratch the surface.  You might just assume that you'll return again when your children are older.  DH has been there 3 times & is eager to return.  Your children might be a bit young for the gunfight outside the Erma Hotel in...
