10 Things I Wish I Knew Before Full Time RVing Across The Country

I get a weekly email/newsletter from Do It Yourself RV.
I thought that this was an interesting take from a newlywed couple RVing for their honeymoon. Never been before and now full timing for seven months in a 20 year old motorhome.

That was entertaining but probably written by someone who likes to write entertaining material.
Just married and 23 years old and they take an RV trip across all 48 states? I find this hard to believe.
I got married in the basement of a church on a Wednesday evening and got up Thursday morning and went to work. I had to pay for the cake and ice cream we had at the reception at my house trailer on a picnic table.
I was no spoiled little rich kid. Still ain't!
Oh yeah. I was 23 years old.

5. Something will always be broken of in need of repair.
Apparently, they haven't lived in a sticks and bricks house. That was my experience there too.

They were featured on a RV TV show where they went from a C to a class A. Quirky and funny.

I'll bet your wedding was lovely. A simple wedding is the most romantic, IMO.
