Old Farms and Fishing Villages on One Tank Through Maine

It’s not difficult to understand why Maine is one of the most popular tourist destinations on the Eastern Seaboard. This is a state where the seasons themselves turn the land into a stage for one picturesque show of nature after another. The spring and summer are the best times to enjoy a variety of outdoor activities such as camping and fishing. Autumn turns the falling leaves into a carpet of red, brown and yellow; the likes of which is seen nowhere else. In winter, the city lights sparkle like diamonds against a curtain of snowy white. Don’t forget to eat your fill of world-class seafood (especially lobster and chowder) at local restaurants during your trip. This One Tank RV Trip from Woodall’s will take you along the southern coast from the New Hampshire border up to the capital of Augusta to sample some of the state’s splendor. Kittery Beginning in the southern part of the state, the town of Kittery offers several points of interest. The Kittery Historical and Naval Museum features exhibits from the town’s rich maritime past, and the stores at Kittery Outlets draw shoppers from all over with its massive array of deeply discounted name brands. Wells Heading north on I-95, a 20 mile drive takes you into the small, historic town of Wells, whose roots date back to the early 1600s. There are many restored buildings available for tours, as well as plenty of grounds open to the public for hiking. Festivals and re-enactments are a popular pastime in Wells, as... Read more

RV Camping at Maine’s Deepest Lake

General Info: One of the five original state parks in Maine, Sebago Lake State Park has been a favorite vacation spot since 1938. Located just 25 miles northwest of Portland, the park spreads for 1400 acres along the north shore of the lake in the towns of Casco and Naples. Sebago Lake is the deepest and second-largest lake in Maine at 45 sq. miles, and is famous for its land-locked salmon. Hours and Fees: Day-use areas are open daily from 9 a.m. to sunset, unless otherwise posted. Entrance to the park is $4.50 for adult Maine residents, $6.50 for adult non-residents, $1.00 for children ages 5-11, and $2.00 for senior non-residents (Maine seniors age 65+ get in free, as do children under 5). Call the park office at (207) 693-6613 for questions and information. Download the Sebago Lake park brochure PDF for general visitor information. Activities: The park has sandy lakeshore beaches (great for swimming or fishing), sprawling forests, ponds, bogs and a river running through it. You’ll have opportunities for picnicking near the lake, cruising around the water by motor boat or canoe, and hiking the trails through the woods. Bicycling along the park roads is another popular activity. In winter, the hiking trails can be used for snow-skiing and snowshoeing. If you’ve brought the boat along, there’s a boat launch for a $5 daily fee. Whatever you choose to do, you’ll be able to enjoy the fresh air and gorgeous scenery. You may even catch a glimpse of some wildlife—but remember... Read more

RVing… Not Just For Rednecks Anymore

Have you seen or heard any of these RV quotes by comedian Jeff Foxworthy? – “If your RV is bigger than your house… you might be a redneck.” – “If you’ve ever taken out a mortgage on an RV… you might be a redneck.” – “If you own a house that is mobile, and 5 cars that are not… you might be a redneck.” Laugh if you will, at the fun poked at us. But I’ll be the first one to tell you – RVing sure has changed! Today, there are over 8 million RV households in the U.S. (not to mention all those Canadian RVers, eh?), and RVers are becoming more and more affluent. In fact, according to the RV Industry Association (RVIA.org), the typical RV owner is age 49, married, owns a home and has an annual household income of $68,000. Read more  Read More →

Luray Caverns

Natural formations and attractions are truly the most marvelous of all sights, as was witnessed by the Hammonds when they visited the Luray Caverns in Luray, Virginia and detailed their adventure in their trip journal, Hammond’s Canada and US Tour. The Luray Caverns are active caves; a term meaning that there is a stream flowing through it. A knowledgeable tour guide takes visitors through the cavernous rooms of the Luray Caves where many wonders await to provide a feast for the eyes. An immense lake of clear, pure water exists in one of the larger “rooms” of the caverns that acts as a mirror, reflecting a perfect image of the incredible cave formations that have developed on the ceiling of the cave.

What’s your RV Emergency Weather Plan?

I love the freedom of the open road. There is nothing like exploring the back roads in your RV. You can go where you want and when you want in your house on wheels, and because of this often times you find yourself at a new destination everyday. Something many RVers do not take into consideration with this freedom to roam is the weather conditions where you are traveling, or spending the night. RV’s are great, but they are not safe in severe weather, like lightning and thunderstorms with high winds, tornadoes and hurricanes. Read more  Read More →

Here’s the ‘Teachable Moment’ in the Crowley / Gates case

I am filled with breathless anticipation for the upcoming “teachable moment” in the Sgt. Crowley / Professor Gates case; this should be a great lesson for us all. So pay attention! This should be an action-packed 60 seconds. 1. We could all learn to leave a backup key or a hide-a-key nearby for when we lock ourselves out of our homes. 2. We might learn not to be so arrogantly superior and aloof that our own next-door-neighbors profile us as burglars. 3. Perhaps we will learn not to ask a cop if they know who he/she is dealing with? They don’t teach that at Harvard already? 4. I suspect we could all learn, if we don’t know it by now, don’t bring someone’s Mom into a verbal brawl. That NEVER goes well. 5. Maybe we’ll learn that people shouldn’t call others “stupid.” My Mom taught me that when I was 5 years old. Duuhhh. 6. I hope we learn to ignore the self-righteous-indignation of reporters and bloggers who clearly don’t understand the meaning of racial profiling. 7. How about a healthy dose of reality and comprehension that TV anchors read scripts from Teleprompters and some haven’t one single clue about the topic at hand? 8. I sure am counting on learning to ignore those so filled with hatred and dis-ease that ANY opportunity is a chance to call another a racist. 9. Will we finally learn that partisan pundits will scream anything to get themselves back on camera? Honest, it’s true. Wow! We do have... Read more
