You're a full-time RVer. That's wonderful. I had to stop by your <a href="http://rvhometown.typepad.com/" target="blank" rel="nofollow">blog</a> and your <a href="http://www.rvhometown.com/" target="blank" rel="nofollow">website</a>. You've got lots of great information! I'm going to spend some time going through your articles. I'd love to give the RV life a try. My family thinks I'm nuts, but it sounds like pure adventure to me. I wish you the best! Felicia Jaime, my hat is off to you!

If your tank of water and battery have to last, you are more conscious of how much you use them. We RVers take Navy showers, wetting down, then turning off the water to soap up, then rinsing. We turn off the water as we brush our teeth. There are many little things we can do that add up to a longer stay and use of fewer resources. It does help to do some modifications to your RV like add a couple of solar panels and an inverter if you will be doing a lot of boondocking. Whenever we camp on public lands we always pick up the trash around our site and out of the trails, leaving it a better place for our visit. Enjoy!
