Has anyone spent 1-2 months in St. Petersburg, FL? As I figure out where I want to live when I grow up this is an area I'd like to explore and try out. I'm curious if there are any decent places to stay in the RV for a month or two to get a feel for the community? Any suggestions?

I sold my Newmar last year (I did tear up a little when the wonderful people pulled up to drive it away) and purchased a new 2026 Grech Strada ION AWD Class B Van. Coming from a quality Class A required going to a quality Class B. Research led me to Grech. I'll now be more spontaneous and doing tons on Boondocking. Downsizing this much has been an interesting challenge and while it works for me, it's not for everyone.

CAMP CRYBABIES — NEW PARK RULES Effective immediately due to an unprecedented increase in complaining. Due to the recent surge in Camp Crybabies, the following rules will be strictly enforced. Please remember: camping is an outdoor activity. Unfortunately, the outdoors contains nature, smells, sounds, weather, animals, and, worst of all, other people. 1. NO FIRES Absolutely no campfires. Someone might smell smoke, and we simply cannot allow one camper to enjoy a traditional camping...

So I have one booked for my way up to the AIM event in Hershey. Has anyone stayed at one of these rv spots?

Most campgrounds never got Wi-Fi right, some do high speed which is nice, some still think 5 MB/s is sufficient. The campground I'm at now offers great Internet, the problem is I'm at a site that's in an area they didn't do so well with Wi-Fi coverage. I can look left and see antennas, look right and see, and I can typically connect just fine. But it's not ideal. I called the office this morning and just wanted to suggest their IT folks consider adding antennas for the section I'm in and...

Was time for a new one and a better fit. I have the dual sink setup in my Ventana, 12 x 14" and Chat GPT recommended this, got it today, works perfect. Dish drying rack

We live in Florida and experience many electrical storms. I have never had any lightning strikes hit me, my house, any of my vehicles, or any other buildings that I own or use (that I know of). During a recent storm in which we had several very close strikes, I wondered if an additional ground rod attached to the RV barn and to the RV chassis would be a good idea. It could be a simple quick connect to the RV. Anyone else consider this?

I just replaced my lead acid batteries with new power queen lithium batteries. (the converter is supposed to recognize the switch over) Will plugging the shore power into my home 120v power charge the new batteries?

I like to keep a compact/flexible hose in the wet bay and my last one decided to burst. Time for something new and hopefully better. So far this one feels better and I think it will do the trick. It complements my egg tray! :) 25 ft expandable garden hose

I picked this location to be near where my assigned service tech is for a driver's side window replacement. Otherwise I would have never known of or probably thought of coming here. And what a little gem of a place this is, and affordable with 20% military discount on top, plus a 7 day pay for 6 arrangement, I'm booked here for two weeks. It is a bit off the beaten path which means no road noise! It's peaceful, it's relaxing, and it has a nice restaurant (golf clubhouse) with bar on site...

Lake Lurleen State Park inn Coker, Alabama is the prettiest and nicest campground we have ever visited. It was recently remodeled/refurbished and it is fantastic! The waterfront sites are beautiful and spacious (some of the others are a bit tight) and easily take a 40ft RV. I’m pretty sure that all sites have full hook-ups, the bathrooms are clean, air conditioned, and roomy. There are 2 or 3 docks for fishing, a swimming beach, and they rent canoes, kayaks, and paddle boards/boats. Near...

I store my 2018 Baystar in an rv garage at my mother's house, the other day she told me that there was a weird smell in the garage, today I dropped by and opened the door to the house battery tray and you could hear a hissing. Pulled the tray out and of the four Interstate group 24 lead acid battery's the second one was very hot and you could see moisture on the top of it. I unplugged the Inteli-power battery charger. I have owned this for about 10 months and the battery's don't have a date...

Does anyone have any experience with Power Queen lithium smart batteries? They seem to be a good deal if good batts.

Want to plan a trip to Branson at end of September and looking for recommendations. Looking for a scenic area. Hiking swimming near by. Gonna be in our C class Thanks

I've been in this RV 9 years now, still honing my storage and organization skills. I blame this on Amazon for recommending it to me when I was searching or ordering something else but hey, I like it and I like that it has a cover so I can stack things on top of it, like my hard boiled eggs I always keep in stock for protein snacks. Egg tray

This for some reason is one of the last things I think about and I remember from the balloon fiesta many found theirs low and Onan/Cummins was on site servicing everyone which was cool. Before departing this morning I checked mine as I run my gen often, especially driving in this heat (96F today) to keep house A/C's running and yep, it was low. I have the ONAN 8K which takes the Fleetguard CC2825: https://www.fleetpride.com/parts/fleetguard-antifreeze-coolant-cc2825 I need to find more...

Just left NC State Fairgrounds in Raleigh, what a little gem that is for full hookups and nice sites for 45/night. I've been there before, last time it was white and my city water became a water feature when my blue filter burst from freezing. A little different this time with it friggin hot out. Now I'm at Carowinds in Charlotte, NC (south edge) where I usually hang out before moving over to Freightliner service in Gaffney, SC an hour away. Cozy quiet campground here with great places to...
