This episode was recorded on the road in Bar Harbor, Maine, where we are about to begin an epic tour of the Canadian Maritimes with more than 40 of our friends and followers. Organized by Fantasy RV Tours, we'll set off Tuesday morning.
Jen and I arrived Saturday afternoon after a 1,200 drive from Southwestern Michigan. It was an awesome road trip getting here. We followed our 330 Rule (no more than 330 miles a day and/or stopping by 3:30 PM local time). We shot a video along the way and will publish that this coming Saturday.
We will be sharing our Maritimes adventures as often as we can with videos, live feeds, photos, and social media updates. The best way to follow us is through our RV Lifestyle Community at https://community.rvlifestyle.com
We can't wait!
SOCIAL MEDIA BUZZ - Wendy Bowyer
Wendy Bowyer reports on the hot issues most talked about this past week on social media and our RV Lifestyle Community group.
In our RVLifestyle Community's Plumbing Space, Mary was having trouble attaching her stinky slinky to her sewer. She said the black tank pull and the grey tank pull were too close together, so she asked if anyone had a tool that would help her unhook the hose. She added that she had tried a rubber hammer and a screwdriver, but they just weren't working, and she needed another idea. Ideas she asked for, and ideas she got!
Someone recommended she try oil filter pliers and others suggested a strap wrench. Chris and Robert each suggested adding an extender. Mary said she appreciated all the ideas and I'm looking forward to hearing what worked out for her.
Also in our Community under Mods & DIY Tweaks Space, Dexter shared a picture of a great solution he made for seeing the steps of his rig at night. He said he didn't want to deal with solar or changing out batteries so he connected the step lights to his porch light. So now when he turns on his porch light, the stairs also illuminate so he can see them at night. He also made a way to unplug the stair lights when traveling. Many thanked Dexter for the idea and we will share a picture of this in the show notes.
Meanwhile in our RVLifestyle Facebook Group, we get so many different kinds of questions.
