Favorite Blogs

Today I spent a lazy day catching up on my favorite blogs. It was wonderful!

My laptop crashed, on Thanksgiving, and I didn't have it for a month. Never realized how much a part of my day-to-day life that electronic gizmo had become until it was gone!

So, I caught up on our own Drivers Blog (iRV2 Forums - Welcome To My Blog! (By DriVer)) I love his with all the reviews on new rigs and new items coming down the line. Put's me in 'dream mode'. Like, "if I won the lottery, THAT is what I would get!!"

MonocoMama's (MonacoMama's Miscellany) I really enjoy her sense of humor and the way she writes. Not everyone knows that she has a real passion for birds and has taken some really beautiful shots of them.

The BayfieldBunch (TRAVEL WITH THE BAYFIELD BUNCH

)). These are Canadian snowbirds who love the desert southwest. I like how he writes but especially his photography!! All the shots, on his blog, he took. They are just stunning!

Our Odyssey (Our Odyssey) This is a full time couple who take their very unusual coach around the country helping out in disaster area's. In fact they were here, over Christmas, a few years ago during the Vernonia floods.

RV Now (RV NOW with Jim Twamley) Jim has had to 'hang up his driving gloves' for a while but his blog has such a wealth of information for a novice RVer, like myself. I still go there and re-read it.

Mike & Pat's Adventures (Mike and Pat's Travels). This couple full timed for 15 years and recently started to part time with a stix/brix. Still love the writing.

Others I enjoy:
Rick & Paulette's RV Travels
Skool'z Out Forever!
Barb & Dave?s Fulltiming Adventures (where I learned about Geocaching)

RV Mods, Modifications, Upgrades, Tips, and Tech | ModMyRV.com (not a blog, but one I visit on a regular basis)
Re's Home on the Roam Re no longer blogs as she is back in a stix/brix but I loved her honesty and sense of humor as she discovered the world of full time RVer.

I would love to get links to other people's favorite blogs. I know blogs are like sand on a beach, there are too many to count!

Hope that you all enjoyed your Sunday as much as I did!!

Don't forget Seajay's blogs. When I'm having a bad day there is not a better pick me up than his.

I think I better take a day ou two and update mine for this year....

I too follow The Bayfield Bunch, Mike & Pat and quite a few of the others on here.

Also enjoy:
Rex Vogel's Blog (good, general RV blog)

Although I have my favorites, I also have a couple of web pages full of links to as many blogs, journals & travelogues as I can find. I add new sites about twice a month - the new ones are listed at the top & the older ones are linked by how often the owners post at the bottom. There are also links to many non-blog pages that may be useful to RVers.

No problem - I actually spent yesterday reading some of your back posts (very, very busy at work as you can tell). You guys remind me a lot of us embracing the geeky side of things - also nice to know we aren't the only ones going from almost 4000 sq feet to...well 200? I like your info about kitchen stocking, as we are treating it like a home as well. I don't dig drinking out of plastic, esp a good scotch. ;-) Thanks for posting what you do and we can't wait to start traveling. STILL waiting on all the paperwork to be finalized, but we may be able to announce our decision this weekend or early next week. Trying not to jinx anything!
