Feeding a Cat on the Road (Robotic Wi-Fi Controlled Food Dispenser!)
Hi guys.. it’s been a while since I’ve written a blog post. But I wanted to introduce you to my new best friend – I call him ‘Robot’. I like food. I like it a lot. When we got our bus back in 2011, my people bought me an automatic food dispenser called the PetMate […]

Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) for RVs – Why the EEZTIRE is Our Choice

Step Into our RV Kitchen for a Tour while we Prep Dinner
We’ve had several requests to do a ‘RV Cooking Show’. We’ve been hesitate to share about our cooking – while we can occasionally make a tasty meal, we really don’t consider ourselves chefs or foodies. What could we possibly impart upon others?

Hot Beverages, Climate Control, Flag Pole & Toys!
Our renovation projects over the summer were pretty massive, and we shared an overview of the bigger items recently. With any renovation there usually comes some smaller changes. After all, in an RV you just don’t have room for carrying items that no longer make sense. So in this post, I’ll introduce some of the newer […]
