Some learned philosophies: We stayed three nights at Mama Yeh RV Park & Campground 10 miles south of downtown Prince George (population 74,003). I selected this campground based on wanting to exceed our minimum criterion and using the details provided by our RV Trip Wizard app. Yet, we rated this site as our worst to…
Arthur Airstream is a 2020, 27-feet, Front Bed, Globetrotter. While he came pre-wired to accommodate roof-top solar panels, we weren’t experienced or economically sound enough to have the panels installed when we purchased him in September 2019. But after nearly five years on the road, and with very real prospects of needing to boondock (camping…
After towing 23,234 miles and staying in 112 campgrounds over the last four years, you would think we could back into a site with our eyes closed. MFI does all of the driving, and that includes backing Arthur into our assigned sites. We call each other on our iPhones. My responsibilities are monitoring clearances, while…

Arthur was parked at Midway RV Park on Naval Support Activity Mid-South base, Millington, TN when temperatures plunged low enough for the park’s water…
When we started this journey, MFI said she would do all of the driving. She claimed to be a much better driver than passenger and said I was the better navigator. No argument from me on either point. Before hitting the road, her routine always includes checking the tire pressures on both Sid and Arthur,…
We’ve been at this full-time camping gig for about two and a half years now, and you’d think we’d had enough experience to avoid making any mistakes. Well, you would have to think again, as I’ll explain with embarassment. When we left our campsite in Gaylord, MI, we emptied our black tank but couldn’t flush…
(Updated as of 8 October 2020) Airstream was all about design from its very beginning. Design in terms of shapes, colors, textures, materials, and function. We thought about these design elements before purchasing Arthur, and now that we are full-timers, our thoughts have deepened and broadened. This is a blog then about design elements depicted…
