Walkie Talkie Fun
We are a very busy family. Sure the kids have cell phones since they are in their teens but cell phones can be very expensive and are often subject to dead zones. We needed a solution for the kids while in our neighborhood, while camping and while trail riding with our horses. The solution was easily found in this set of walkie talkies. Our set is green but it is also available in blue and silver. First of all I love the color. Kids lose things – alot! And with this neon green it is almost impossible to misplace these radios. They do come with a rechargeable battery pack as…

Replacing A Mattress In Your Camper
One of the first things we noticed when we bought our first camper was that the beds are not a standard size. Sure our “master bedroom” mattress is queen size and that is a standard size. But the bunk beds in the bunk house and the mattresses for the dinette/bed combo are definitely not a standard size. There is no way to just walk in somewhere and pull a product of choice off a shelf. So what do you do when you need to replace any of them? Let’s face it with kids they need to be replaced. And as much as I’d love to pretend mice didn’t exist but…

Preparing Your RV For Winter Storage

It is parked at a resort campground and stays at that location year round. The result is that it really is our home away from home. Everything you could want in a summer home – we have with our RV. I really enjoy the life of not having to pack and unpack all the time – for the most part. Here are some things I didn’t know about or hadn’t considered when we first bought our RV. In theory we…

Supply Storage Strap – The Answer To So Many Needs
We own horses and they have outdoor fields and indoor stalls. They spend most of their time outside but in poor weather conditions they have stalls to go into. When you own horses there is never enough storage space and when you do store things they need to be out of the way so horses don’t trip on them or simply step on them and break whatever you spent your hard earned money on. Accidents happen – but doing what we can to prevent them is critical. That is why I love this storage strap. All week we have been cleaning up the barn – we board at a facility…
