Despite zero experience with RVs, we opted to make our first trip one that would span 900 miles. We made a few mistakes along the way, but it could have been much worse.

In the last two years we’ve looked at hundreds of RVs, from travel trailers to 5th wheels to Class As. We considered them all. After all that looking, why did we settle on the Heartland Bighorn 3875FB? The idea of RV living is one that Julie has had on her mind for years. Before she met Brandon, she figured she’d set off in something small but reasonably...
Our second stop with our new (to us) Bighorn 3875FB was a night at Lake City Campground in Lake City Florida. Here we were just looking for an easily accessible place to spend a single night. We tried to break our return trip (from Florida to Alabama) down into reasonable chunks of about 250 miles, and that put our first stop around Lake City Florida. Using the Good...
Buying a used RV is no easy task. There’s much to be wary of when buying a used RV. You’d think that you could just talk to the current owners, have them send you some pictures or even video and you’d have a good idea of what you are looking at. You’d still want to view it in person before buying, or have someone else do so, but you should be...
Seminole Campground in Ft. Myers Florida is an RV campground with some RV Resort level amenities.
A few people have thought we were crazy to drive 800 miles to buy our first RV. Why not buy something closer? Something you could easily walk through before having it inspected. Why would you want to make an 800 mile trek home as your first RV trip? We feel we had two really good reasons. Availability and Price! After a couple of months of looking at Class A’s , we...
We began looking at RVs online and joining Facebook groups during the summer of 2018. As a result, we began seeing ads for Workamper Rendezvous – a conference for RVers and those who want to be. Before these ads we’d never heard of workamping and had no idea what it is. Initial research seemed to indicate that it was the idea of living and working from...
Buying our first rig has been complicated by the variety of options and choices. Deciding what kind of rig - a Class A? A travel trailer? A 5th wheel? -will work best for us has been a process.
In August of 2018 we were just beginning our journey. We’d done some window shopping but we still had to sell my house before any real movement could be made. But, it wasn’t too early for us to attend Workamper Rendezvous event and learn as much as we could about living and working from a home on wheels. We previously shared a bit of what we learned at...
