Tips For Preparing Your RV Or Trailer For Winter Adventures
Winters in the cold regions of Canada can be testing, and require some dedication, preparation, and adaptability, especially if you plan to spend an extended amount of time in your RV. Whether on extended road trips or as a primary residence, off the grid or in a park, winter RVing comes with unique challenges. If you are not properly prepared, you can run into problems from breakdowns in your engine or fuel tank, indoor heating, or other amenities failing. Sub-zero temperatures means anything that is able to freeze is at risk, causing damage that can be incredibly difficult or expensive to fix. But do not be discouraged from simply winter storing or escaping to the warmth of the south. There are a lot of adventures to have in the snow-capped mountains, frozen lakes, and snow-covered villages across Canada and the Northern United States!

Scary Trails: RVing to All Our Favourite Halloween Destinations
When most people think about Halloween, they rarely think of travelling. The extent of their journeys include a trip to the grocery store to purchase large bags of candy, and then later canvassing their neighbourhood streets to see (and participate in) all the trick-or-treating efforts. Rarely if ever does Halloween conjure up a desire to travel beyond the boundaries of your neighbourhood. But travelling experts argue that if you are hoping to qualify for perpetual Halloween bragging rights, you’ll need to travel. The reason for this is because there are many exciting (and obviously scary) destinations that you are missing out by limiting your Halloween experiences to high-end costumes, parties ’til dawn, eating yourself sick on candy corn. Instead, by rallying up a few travelling buddies in an RV for a tour can put you on a journey to find a number of spooky, spine-tingling and downright raucous destinations. You will be so shook by the great places to explore that you will want to make this a regular occurrence on many Halloween holidays to follow.
