Creating Family Connections One RV Adventure at a Time
Earlier this year I shared with you about some of my camper mishaps in recent years, one of which damaged the camper’s rear bumper where the camper sewer hose was stored. Since the mangled cap on the end no longer comes off or goes on easily, and since I needed a place to store my new sewage hose support, I decided it was time to
Our Keystone Passport features a great four-person bunk house at the rear of the unit. And although our kids actually look forward to hitting the sack in their own bunk, we had found it was sometimes hard for the kiddos to unwind after a fun day of camping and touring, especially when they were in such close proximity and could whisper back and forth and
Last year I purchased a sewer hose support, but it did not hold up well in cold temperatures and it subsequently broke on our most recent fall camping trip. So after searching Pinterest I came up with the following more durable solution: Note: This post contains affiliate links. Our disclosure policy can be found here.

For several of our camping stops this summer we decided to book full-hook-up sites in hopes it would make life a little simpler while we are on the road for so long. And I have to admit, being able to shower in your own camper without hauling everything to a shower house is nice. However, we have learned the hard way that showering in your
With five people in our camper, we found on camping trips that the entry area was always getting clogged with shoes. So in preparing for our 2015 West Trip we needed a better shoe storage solution. Once again I headed to Pinterest for some ideas. I saw one idea that used small PVC piping to create a shoe rack just inside the door. I was intrigued
The previous owners of our camper were hard on several things, so after we bought it we had to make a few repairs–including to the camper shower curtain. The curtain was completely missing and the track had been partially pulled out of the ceiling. So I went to our local camper dealer to get a new curtain and track and discovered the whole set was
After owning our camper for two years, we’ve found some features and designs that don’t work well for our family’s needs. Some of those things we can’t change, like the location of the camper’s CO2 detector, which is low on the wall within easy reach of our curious kiddos. Other things can be modified to make them work better for our family, like fixing
Hello friends, We thought you all might enjoy a camper tour of our home away from home. Before our final 2014 camping trip I pulled out the video camera to show you what our Keystone Passport looks like all loaded down for a weekend trip. Enjoy! The floor plan for the Keystone Passport Grand Touring 2910BH:

After owning our travel trailer for two years, we have discovered that the factory incandescent lights tend to get very hot and eventually fail to work. We have now had three light fixtures fizzle out, so after some research I decided to replace them with the newer LED lights. The LED lights
Last summer during our tour of the Washington, D.C. region, a fellow camper gave us a great tip about going to the National Museum of the Marine Corps. We had never heard of it before, but since we had some extra time in our schedule, we decided to go check it out, and we are…
According to AAA, this year’s Covid outbreak led wary Americans to cancel at least 150 million summer vacations. Within the camping industry, many RVers had to scramble to make new plans as campgrounds around the country cancelled reservations. Although most of those locations have since reopened to RVs and tenting families, many campgrounds still cancelled…
