RV life brings with it some issues that have to be researched by each RVer based on their lifestyle and their desires and needs.  When you live in a sticks and bricks house you buy a TV and get the local cable guy to hook you up and it works, end of story.  If you live… Continue reading 07.28.13 Satellite dish upgrade, frost possible tonight, new neighbors and blueberries!
