Publications/Additional Information

There are many publications that will assist you in your RVing experiences.  As I list some of them as suggestions I'll also try to make the internet locations available by 'clicking' on the publication name.  Following are also a list of internet links that are both fun and informative.  I have included such things as RV directory listings, camping directories, RV safety and how-tos, etc.  I have added a section for 'Solution Companies' which are companies that provide working solutions to your needs.

Additional link pages:  Equipment manufacturers is a page to help you find products and service for your equipment.  Miscellaneous RVs  is a spot to get information on different brands of RVs that are available.  Books, both paperback and hard cover are available, along with magazines.  Check your road conditions on the state link for road conditions and travel information at Construction/Highway/Police Agency Info Links.  Newsgroups are another area of information that an RVer can tap for help and general information.  Be sure to see the 'Camps/Parks' page for Campground links, Resort links, and State Information Sources to help you find information state by state.  If you live in the Kansas City area there is also a KC Area Sites page.  When I find Personal Diaries on the web I'll note them so you can see what others are doing with their RVs.  And a new area TV Shows.

There are of course links throughout my web page.  With each area of interest, trip information, etc. I have attempted to link up the sites that were pertinent to the information being presented.

I have tried to put each and every RV related link that I can find on line and just about the time that I think I've got them all there are several more pop up.  Some of the links die when a company fails, or an individual or company changes Internet service provider for whatever reason.  I'll try to keep these updated as well as possible.
