It's RV Gift Season!

GIFT IDEAS FOR THE RV-ER IN YOUR LIFE

Here are just a few ideas:

* Give gifts that say “I get you."

 * Order personalized, imprinted note cards, paper  napkins or “business” cards with an RV theme. Many RV travelers have “stay in touch” cards to give to people they meet along the way and hope to meet again.  

Many state parks and private campgrounds offer gift certificates in almost any amount. They may be good for campsites, the camp store and even online purchases. Read the fine print for rules such as expiration dates, activation fees if any, and blackout dates. 

* For a few dollars, give a supply of disposable paper party goods from the dollar store.  Buy them in the color scheme of the recipient’s RV  or favorite sports team or the next holiday.  Eco-friendly disposables can be burned in the campfire. 

* Did they name their RV? How about polo shirts or baseball caps embroidered with the name of the recipient’s rig?   

  * Almost anyone can use a new belt. Make it RV-specific with a big, shiny camping-theme belt buckle from Etsy. 

* Insulated glasses or mugs keep drinks hot or cold longer in the outdoors.  

* For about $1 each, pick up a bouquet of three, six or a dozen solar stake lights that are easily placed around each campsite, then easily removed.  

* Do you have a great photo of the person with their rig? Order an imprinted mug, canvas print, key ring or other token. 

* Luggage straps are good for more than suitcases. Use them to bind any unwieldy bundle such as a  bed roll, yoga mat, patio rug and puffy,  down-filled comforts and clothing. Bonus points if it’s personalized with the name of the rig or the purpose such as “Ben’s Bedding” or “Betsy’s Parkas”.  

*. Any camp cook will welcome a bright new pair of kitchen gloves.. Bonus points if you add a barbecue apron. Double points if the apron is personalized. Colorful, inexpensive garden gloves are ideal for handling frozen foods. Fireplace gloves are a must for the campfire. 

* The campfire is the heart of the campsite.  Give a cluster of fatwood fire starters, artificial logs, a tabletop fire, cedar planks for salmon or “magic” flames for a dash of color.  (Or have the kids make Grandpa a supply of homemade fire starters. You know, the kind you made with coffee grounds or dryer lint when you were in Scouts.) 

* Give the camp chef a basket filled with three or more bottled hot sauces from all over the world. Not everyone likes spicy food. The basket can be passed at the table and added to taste. The  colorful labels are conversation starters. 

* Find Compact, simple games such as a bright new pack of fancy playing cards, a bag of marbles or jacks, dominoes, ring toss, age-appropriate crosswords. Suduko, Word Search, adult coloring books. Put the phones away and play old-fashioned games with loved ones. 

Summing up: Keep it  compact, practical, useful and perhaps disposable or edible.

RV Camping + 2026 Concerts

Campsite jams are common at bluegrass concerts

RED ALERT. Dates for Sacramento’s annual epic Aftershock Festival are already announced for October,  2026 and the Gem and Jam Festival is Tucson in early February is heavily booked.

Why worry about next year’s must-have concerts  during the busiest holiday season? 

For one thing, gift certificates to concerts-cum-camping are a great way to give. For another, it takes planning to attend today’s massive concerts in an RV. 

Here are tips, some mine and some from from Matthew Smith at TicketSqueeze.com.

 

Start planning early, earlier and earliest. Study schedules. Know what days the hottest headliners will be on stage. Know campsite locations and facilities. See maps of the venue(s). 

* Once you have dates (and second and third choices just in case) note times when RV’s can enter. After you are settled in, can you come and go or not? 

* Make reservations for places to stay on your entire route to and from the concert.  

* Read ALL rules for the concert and for campers. They will be massive and usually strict. Fail to follow the rules and you could be evicted with no refund.

*What are policies regarding cancellations and refunds? Use a trusted ticket site. 

* If you’re new to this concert, is it family friendly or adults only? Are drugs and alcohol part of the scene?  Know what kind  of culture you're getting into. 

Go  zydeco!
1

* Surround yourself with local culture.  Choices are endless: Bluegrass, Southern Gospel, Latin, Jazz, Christian, Native American, Greek and so on.  Expand our dates to take in local museums, historic sites, local ethnic restaurants. 

It’s not too early to picture yourself at your favorite live concert next year. You’ll settle into a campsite with a canopy of stars overhead and a surrounding sea of fellow campers, food trucks, vendors, good vibes and stages alive with  nonstop music.

RV Insurance Too High?

What Can YOU do?

Here are some factoids and statistics. All are subject to challenge but some are sure to make sense to you and your RV life. 

*  California is the state with the most RV thefts. Organized crime is involved in 20% of RV thefts. Within 48 hours the rigs are stripped for parts.  About 20,000 RV’s are stolen in the U.S. yearly.  The recovery rate for RV’s is 30% yet  80% of RV crime cases go unsolved. 

* A visible alarm system reduces the chance of theft by 30%. One source observes that  RV’s are most likely to be stolen in the summer months, holiday seasons and in rural areas

`* If you use a storage unit with surveillance cameras, chances of theft are reduced by 15%. 

* One insurance company reports that windshield/glass damage accounts for a massive 46% of all insurance claims. Keep wiper blades and the windshield clean of grit. Repair tiny nicks before they spread. 

   * Surveillance cameras at storage lots reduce theft by 15%. A GPS tracking system reduces the chance of theft by 40% while a steering wheel lock offers an additional 25% protection.  An RV in an unfenced area is 50% more likely to be stolen than an RV in a fenced area;  60% of thefts are from storage areas. 

*Road accidents are responsible for 19% of one insurer’s  claims. Of these,  24% were from vehicles that were hit while parked, 14% from collisions from ahead and 14% from being hit in the rear. Accidents when reversing were 12% of claims. Incidents when pulling out accounted for 9% of all road accidents. The major cause of accidents is driver error. 

* According to usfa/FEMA.gov/  reporting from 2018-2020, there were an average of 4,200 RV fires resulting in 15 deaths, 125 injuries, and $60.3M loss. 85% of fires were in towables. 

* Although they are classified by the EPA as natural disasters, only 1-15% percent of wildfires occur on their own. The other 85-90 %,are caused by humans and things like unattended camp and debris fires, discarded cigarettes, and arson. 

*Most thefts occur at home, so it’s smart to increase total security of your home and property if your RV is parked there.

* Cooking is the source of only about 8% of RV fires, says the  U.S. Fire Administration. Although it’s a significant problem, engine and electrical fires are more common.

    While many books are  written about full-timing (and you should read them all) ours covers the entire lifestyle change, warts and all. It begins with making the decision in the first place, and ends with easing out when and if that time comes.

RV WINTER CAMPING + LATEST RV PARK NEWS BRIEFS

For every RV life

THERE IS A SEASON

And for some RV-ers, winter is best of all

Thanks to the sophisticated new reservations systems we can always find just the right RV site for ambience, location, services, facilities and even the shape, size and placement of hookups at the site itself. 

However, there is more you need to know about a destination at this time of year. More and more campgrounds, resorts and RV parks are choosing to stay open through the winter. 

Here’s an idea of what to look for:

* What amenities remain open? When does the outdoor swimming pool close? What about planned activities?  The fitness center? Nearby restaurants and attractions?  Bathrooms and hot showers available?       

           

* What about bottom line costs? Winter may call for high season camping rates in ski country but low season rates in area where winter is not tourism season. But what about the unexpected costs of winter travel? 

  

* You need to know total costs such as installing skirting and other insulation, purchases such as heated hoses, the cost of  electricity for heating and charges for water and honey wagon delivery if the water and sewer hookups are disabled when temperature call below freezing. Is propane delivery available? 

* Can you get there? In snow country it’s likely that some roads will be closed at least some of the time. Is your rig both winterized and suitable for winter driving? 

* Reservation cancellation costs can be high. If you can have to cancel because of closed roads or a weather related problem at the campground, can you get a refund or just credit for a  new date?

* What about staffing and security in winter? 

* Does the place offer safety and comfort for your pet? Facilities for equestrian campers and their mounts? 

* If you rely on solar, how much sunshine can you expect at this locale?

Ready now? Hook up the toy hauler for your snowmobile, mount your ski racks and let’s GO!
