    Moab 2007 rally activity

    Is Cliff still alive? I have a copy of his RVsongs4you that I bought years ago when he was in Washington at the RV park we were at. I love the songs on the CD - I am sure other RVs do to. Charlotte [email protected]

    I'm looking and could use some advice

    Also, just cause it says couples, send them your resume. I have gotten my single jobs by doing that.

    Desert Rose RV Park Fernley, NV

    Update - I have worked here that last 7 months. I have really enjoyed it here. I was going to stay through the fall but due to my husband's progressing Alzheimer's Disease I must settle somewhere. When I arrived in October the park was full of Amazon workforce, was almost empty, then we...

    Water in Tombstone

    I have a workamper offer from a park in Tombstone for the summer. I am tired of buying bottled water. I know Arizona is known for bad water unless they go deep. Anyone have an opinion on the water taste there? On one site the quality is 60/100 which is above the national average and higher than...

    Best and worst workcamping experience

    If still interested - the worst place we worked was a park in Florida. The owner and manager could use no other language but profanity. The male side of management would blow smoke in my husband's face, not talk but yell at him using profanity until the manager was beet red. His idea of training...

    Running Away to Join the Circus

    Back in 1992 we 'joined' the carnival for a month. It first started with my husband going to work when the carnival came to the county fair. Then they asked him to go to the next town, so we all went but only my husband and son worked. Next it was to the state fair in the next state - we all...

    Desert Rose RV Park Fernley, NV

    I am considering working at Desert Rose RV Park in Fernley, NV. The map actually shows it being in Silver Springs not Fernley. Has anyone worked there or even stayed there? I searched the forum but could not find anything even though there must be!

    55+ RV Parks in OR, WA and ID?

    We worked one winter at Portside RV park in Brookings, OR. Brookings is known as the 'banana belt' of Oregon. They have mild winters and mild summers. Portside is a park that the owner has mostly retired people with park models and RVs, but also  RV sites for overnighters. There is nothing there...

    NEw England's best RV parks?

    We worked one summer at Exeter Elms Campground in NH. We had a 34' MH. They have a few sites with full hookups but most are just water and electric but they do have a dump station. As we drove around there area in our car we found there are really not a lot of RV parks and those we did see had...

    living with below 0 temps

    On RV 2011 they showed a water hose that comes with the a heater - all in one. No more wrapping your hose with heater tape and foam, although below zero I might still consider it. Didn't have to worry - we went south although in Quartzsite and Yuma we had nights below freezing. One night in...

    Nevada 93 from Vegas to Idaho

    We are going to be leaving Quartzsite heading to Washington state. The way we have always gone was up thru SLC but when I put the destination into Rand McNally and FMCA - they both showed taking 93 through Eastern Nevada. We would not take it into Ely instead taking 318 due to Connor Pass on 93...

    Toll roads- Michigan to Virginia

    We also avoid toll roads like the plague. Out in the NW there are only tolls on a few bridges and we avoid those too when in the MH. Our experience is that the toll roads are often as bad if not in worse condition than the free interstate. Like mentioned before, I pay federal taxes on all the...
