Click on the above graphic or
go to http://virtualguidebooks.com/PanoramasTOC.html
This site features over
5000 VR panoramas spanning western North America from Baja California
to the Canadian Arctic, plus Hawaii and the South Pacific. These amazing
photographs show you exactly what it is like to be in a particular place
- you can look in any direction, all the way around. It's the next best
thing to being there. The Virtual Guidebooks use immersive imagery (VR,
or virtual reality, panoramas) to allow you to travel, virtually, to interesting
places. Each panoramic image shows you exactly what it is like to be in
that particular spot — you can look in any direction, as well as up and
down. You can zoom in and out, and some images have interactive captions
that tell you just what you are looking at. |
Two
Scamps
Come travel with us as we
explore the great American West. This is not your usual tour. We thrive
on adventure and out of the way places! Welcome! Maureen and Eric
Who we are: A couple of
peripatetic souls united in a quest for adventure and that elusive "perfect
western town". |
 Travels
With Keith and Kathy
We travel about halftime
in a 29 ft. Winnebago. We started posting a couple of months ago,
and post every few days (periodically but not regularly) when we are in
travel mode. When we are not motorhoming, we sometimes travel by
other modes. For example, we spent 3 weeks touring China and Tibet
last fall (ahead of he Olympic riots, thank heaven). We kept a journal
and took oodles of photos on that trip, and hope to retro-post our China
journal over the next few weeks. We have travel journals and photos
going back to 2001, when Keith retired. We are thinking about retro-posting
some of this material in the indeterminate future, depending on time and
ambition. |

 The
Adventures of Tioga and George
Tioga and George travel
the roads of the west looking for adventure!
They never stay in RV campgrounds.
This team has a huge following,
and for a reason. |
Nick's
Blog
We are fulltime RVers -
our only home is the MCI bus conversion we travel the country in. We produce
the Gypsy Journal in our bus as we travel.
Now Nick is doing a daily
blog with his travel accounts as he also produces his famous Journal. |
Colored
Outside The Lines
A brand new blog to follow...
as they are just starting to fulltime. They retired and came to Quartzsite
and upgraded to a 5er and you can read their new adventure. Watch and learn
from them, so you can do it too. They are already volunteering in the BLM.
Get in on the ground floor with this one. |
  Geeks
on Tour Blog
aka Odie's Roadies: 2 computer
geeks and one perfect poodle, live, work, and travel in their Motorhome.
You know them from their Geeks
on Tour website. We are Jim and Chris Guld. We have been computer
support professionals since the early 1980s. We now live in our motorhome
full-time and travel the US, giving seminars at RV Rallies, and generally
helping RVers and RV parks with their computer needs. |
 Fulltiming
Road Runners
The blog is a diary of sorts
that will be about the things that are taking place in and around the lives
of Thom and Judy who are in the process of beginning a period of fulltime
RV’ng that has a start date and may just go on until we are done with life
and have moved on. The actual Plan has been evolving and changing ever
since. I guess the only common thread has been that it had to involve living
in an RV and traveling around some. The really neat thing is that Judy
wants to do the same basic things that I want to so it should be easy to
keep both of us reasonably happy with the path we are taking. Am
I lucky or what. |
The
Great MisAdventures of David and JoEllen
You have discovered the
webpages of "Modern Gypsies" David & JoEllen Laurita and Toby the cat.
We are fulltime RVers traveling around this great country in our Ford dually
pickup (The Mighty 350) and 5th wheel camper going where the winds may
blow us. We enjoy the freedom this lifestyle promotes and spend time sightseeing,
walking, gold prospecting, crafting, reading, and web building, as well
as soaking in the local cultures of wherever we visit. This website is
designed to document The Great MisAdventure as our electronic scrapbook,
we welcome your thoughts and comments about it. |
 The
Road Less Traveled
Ron and I have been traveling
together since 2005 when he sold his house and went on the road full time.
In 2006, I sold my fifth wheel in which I had been living since 2001 and
moved in with Ron in his motorhome. Since then we have traveled throughout
much of the US and some of Canada. We met through our singles RV club WIN
(Wandering Individuals Network) and sometimes travel with them or other
friends. |
 Living
the Fulltime RV Lifestyle
Welcome to our website.
We are Jack and Danielle Mayer. It was always our dream to live and
travel fulltime in our RV. Beginning in August of 2000 we started living
that dream as fulltime RVers. It is a lifestyle that we enjoy and we do
not see ourselves "coming off the road" unless medical conditions force
us to. This website is oriented towards "technical" issues related to the
fulltime RV lifestyle - everything from selecting your tow vehicle, information
on Heavy Duty Trucks (HDT's), electrical modifications to your RV, installation
and use of solar, items to make boondocking more pleasant, to cell phone
selection and improvement, etc.
webmaster note: This
site does not offer a travel journal but is a good source for "technical
issues". We shall see what section we place this site in. Maybe in our
resources section. But for now read on and learn. |
Roadtrip
'08
Harley (the cat)and I head
south in the winter to explore the backroads, deserts, coasts, forests,
beaches, of the southern US and Baja, Mexico! The blog starts with the
2006 expedition, and is now moving into the 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 season.
We hope you enjoy reading about our travels. Between trips you can read
about living and working in Banff, Yoho, and Kootenay National Parks. |
Susan's
and Maikels's Website
Susan and I Maikel decided
to take one year off our Corporate Americia a.k.a. The Rate Race. We bought
an Airstream and hit the road. feel free to roam our site and but don't
sit on your butt all day. There are mountians to climb, trails to ride
and time to spend with friends. |
RV
Anytimers
We have been RVing since
our early married life in the 70's. I am a retired General Contactor (wood
butcher extraordinaire) and Linda retired from a career in Cosmetology
(hairbender). We still have a stix & brix home, but travel extensively
throughout the year whenever we want. Thus RV-Anytimers. We will be posting
our travels so our family and friends can ride along. |
Just
Passing Through
Gary,59, retired from the
USPS 4 years ago at the age of 55. He drove a school bus for the next 3
years and loved it. Sally,53, was a stay at home mom who homeschooled,
had a children's resale store for 3 years, and did volunteer work. We sold
our house in 2007, but Sally got cancer. We parked our RV and lived in
it while going through chemo. We have now been on the road for 2 months
doing volunteer work and we love it!! |
 Jim
& Sims's Great Adventure
"The Plan"....or what the
heck are you guys doing. Sim and I talked about retirement even before
I had my heart attack in March 2005. That event just sped up the process.
Moving to Thailand and retiring on a tropical island sounded pretty good.
But before we did that, we decided that we would like to see more of the
US and Canada. Sim has been in the US for ten years and has only been to
a couple of states, and I have never been to the South or the Northeast.
We thought it would be cool to visit 49 of the 50 states. Now the question
was how. I took Sim to a local RV dealership so she could get an
idea about the size and accommodations available in the various models
of RVs. We left that dealership knowing that only a Class A motor
home would fit the bill for us. The search for class A began in February
2006. It came down to Country Coach and Foretravel. After driving
the Foretravel, my mind was made up. I then started looking for the right
Foretravel for us. In May of 2006 I found a 1998 40' Model U320 for sale
in Texas. I flew to Texas with a friend, I bought the Foretravel and we
drove it back to San Jose. Over 2000 miles in 36 hours. By December of
2006, we had sold our home in Sunnyvale, packed and stored the possessions
we could not part with, moved everything else we needed to travel with
into the Foretravel and headed out for Jim and Sim's Great Adventure. |
 Travels
of John & Mimi
Mimi and I are retired school
psychologists who love to travel. We have a house in San Diego, which is
a nice central location for travels (Mexico to Canada) and generally excellent
weather. Considered as "part timers", we hit the road periodically, exploring
the Northwest in the summer and going to Baja (Mulege) in the winter. We
have a 31 ft. Sea Breeze motor home (Smokey) and two cats - Armani and
Gillespie. They accompany us on the road not leaving the motorhome. We
are equipped to "boondock", being able to be self-sufficient for weeks
at a time. Smokey is equipped with large tilting solar panels on the roof,
storage batteries, and a whole-house inverter. There is a generator for
back-up. A key piece of equipment is the Motosat satellite internet system,
which allows us to be connected with the world anytime we are camped. It
also allows us phone contact with folks using VOIP. Our motto is "Happily
eating and drinking our way across this great country". Nice life. Join
us on our trips ... John & Mimi |
 Thom
& Dar's Sabbatical
Having had our fill of traditional
9 to 5 work, we’re ready for some change and new adventure in our lives.
Both of our kids are grown, have finished college (yes, with degrees),
are gainfully employed, and, more importantly, living on their own. We’ve
lived a low-maintenance, low-cost lifestyle and have been fortunate in
that we’ve been able to save a little money which provides options and
flexibility for the future. While we’re still young enough and healthy
enough to bike, hike, kayak, and climb small mountains, we sold out home,
bought a motorhome, and are traveling throughout North America seeking
that place we’d ultimately like to spend the rest of our lives. We’re referring
to this adventure as a “sabbatical”, as we fully expect to eventually settle
down again and get back to some kind of work or business, hopefully in
a warmer and less congested environment. |
 Living
Our Dream
JoAnn is a retired Unity
Minister having served in Panama City Florida as the senior minister of
Unity of Panama City. Doug had a career as a stock broker and spent some
time as a social worker after he moved to Panama City. He met JoAnn at
the church. Neither of us were looking for a relationship but the Universe
had other ideas. We have been together for 10 years and hope for many more.
We started traveling in 2000 in a Lance slide on truck camper. We have
traveled in every state but Wisconsin and Minnesota, every province and
Territory in Canada, and 4 Mexican states. Finally a repairman said "you've
about worn this thing out." In 2006 we purchased a 32 ft Montana 5th wheel
and chose to put our property up for rent and go 'full time.' We travel
with a 70 lb standard poodle named Fillmore. |
justravelin

to tell and reviews to share. Please feel free to leave us comments, advice,
or any questions you may have. |
 Brits
on Tour
Jim & I have been married
for 33 years this year.(2007) He retired as a K9 Police officer in March
2004, and I as a bank clerk at the same time. We arrived in Florida at
the end of March '04, to begin our great adventure. We visited Lazy Days
three days after our arrival, and purchased our National Tradewinds DP
motorhome and our Geo Tracker Toad, all in that first week. The only part
of home we miss are our two daughters, Genette and Georgina, their husbands,
Darren and Daniel, and our 5 grandchildren. But they give us the reasons
to return home once or twice a year. We still have a home in England, in
a town called Solihull, just south of Birmingham. |

Richards
Travels
We wish to leave a trail
of our travels and to show as many pictures as possible of this beautiful
country of ours. As I enjoy photography I take a lot of photos.
I will be starting to add a lot of photo albums of the places we have been.
All of the spots we visit will have a page describing the site with pictures
showing what the sites look like. We have hosted in state parks in CO,
GA, LA, SD, AZ and AK. This spring we were volunteered in Picacho
Peak State Park, which we have hosted in for 7 winters, we decided to retire
from hosting and devote full time to our travels and time shares. |
 CORGI~DOG
NEWS FROM THE ROAD
Our trial retirement began
the end of June 2006. We don't know how long it will last, but, for as
long as it can, we plan to travel America's highways in our Winnebago Journey,
a 32 foot house on wheels. Jake and Addie, our tri-colored pembroke welsh
corgis travel with us, making it more fun. Jake is a laid back wonder while
Addie is a tad UpTiGhT. We'll share our experiences, with family and friends;
good or bad, boring or interesting... as we travel down this road called
life. Read on! |

 Bill
and Cap
We
have been full time RVers twice. The first time began in 2000 and
lasted just over a year. The second time started in May 2005 and
we haven’t looked back!
After
looking at our web page, you will see how life presented us with many twists
and turns, ultimately leading us back to our life on the road. Visit
our galleries, and you will see we have a link to each year that gives
a short blog on the highlights of that year plus some of our favorite photos.
We are not retired, we have no pension and we draw no social security.
So, how do we make it? We have a life plan that we call 4-2-4-2.
Check out our “4-2-4-2” page for all the details. Our home on wheels is
a 30’ Arctic Fox 5th wheel we call “Plan B.” If you want to learn
more about it, simply click on our Plan B link. We hope you enjoy reading
our blog, Views from the Open Road. We want to share with you the
never-ending-saga of life on the road, and we will not bore you with details
of day to day life. |
 Ron
& Elena's Odyssey
We started thinking about
full time RVing over a year ago. We got real serious in late 2006, started
selling "stuff", put the house on the market in April 2007, and sold it
in 10 days. We started our full time adventure on June 1, 2007. After spending
June in Southern CA to wrap-up loose ends we started traveling on July
2nd. |
www.livelightytour.com
We love living small. We
love living sustainably. We love telling others how to do it for themselves.
So…we are hitting the road to spread the love! Beginning in the Fall of
2007, we are traveling the U.S. in an RV powered by straight vegetable
oil. Yes! Grease! It’s free, baby. We are also remodeling the inside of
the RV with sustainable, earth friendly materials. This blog will detail
our journey…the people, the places, the adventures. |

Jim and René hope
you will find the information in this full-time RVing sabbatical blog helpful
in discovering your own dream live/work situation. And they hope you enjoy
their sabbatical photos and videos. So stick around – the ride promises
to be an exciting one. In June, 2007, they packed up and began traveling
around North America with their three-legged dog Jerry in search of the
next big thing. |
Seeing
the USA in our Chevrolet
After selling our house
in the San Francisco Bay Area and retiring from our jobs, we departed on
March 11, 2006, for a new life of travel. In addition to seeing the wonderful
sights around the country, we especially enjoy meeting new and interesting
people along the way. Both Juanita and Gordon offer observations, likes
and dislikes, reviews, and notes on our travels for all to enjoy. |

link temporarily suspended
I, the mom, am in my 40’s
and have always enjoyed a wanderlust. I think I inherited this from my
maternal grandmother and my childhood. We hit the road back in November
of 2004 thinking we’d look for another place to live, but honestly, after
1.5 years on the road, I’m not sure I want to settle down. Until that happens,
we’re very happy to spend at least 1/2 the year in Mexico and the rest
wandering. . |

I retired in August of 2004 and my husband, Gordon and I sold our 4 bedroom
house, bought a diesel truck and fifth wheel and with our dog, Bib, hit
the road. We spend five months in Ontario, where we're from, one month
in another part of Canada and the winters in the southern USA. |
We're
Wingin' It
We are now planning to roll-out
January 2, 2007 to begin extended travel for as many years as necessary

don't know how long that may take, but are prepared to travel in this nomad
lifestyle for the next 20+ years. |

 RV
NOW
My wife, Marilyn, and I
have been full time RVing going on three years now. We love this lifestyle
because it affords us the opportunity to travel and visit our many friends
and family who are scattered all over the USA. We also enjoy the pure delight
of traveling and seeing the world and RVing is the best and most economical
way to do it!
We have been avid readers
of Chuck Woodbury’s outstanding work over the years and we look forward
to being part of the RV TRAVEL team. |
 The
Cuzz Travels
With Jeff's retirement in
2005 we started an adventure we have discussed for years, traveling North
America in a motorhome while we decide where to settle down. We have owned
motorhomes since the 1970's and have always enjoyed RVing, now it has become
our lifestyle. It is unbelievable how much we have seen and done in the
past 15 months. |
 RV
Travels With Huggy
I am a retired transit service
supervisor who moved from Pugetopolis to a smaller, quieter place 60 miles
away from Seattle. I was happily married to Annie for over 37 years, until
she died July 23, 2005. I have been trying to learn how to live without
my better half and that is being helped by our Russian Blue cat, Huggy.
I want this blog to serve to keep family and friends up to date on Huggy
and my travels with the RV and our daily activities. |

in a 40 foot "Condo on Wheels", our Winnebago Chieftain. We hope you'll
enjoy living vicariously through us by this journal as we pursue our dream
and travel an undetermined length of time through the continental USA,
Alaska and Canada (maybe some of Mexico if we're brave enough!). We'll
be travelling with our precious Shih Tzu companion, Gucci. Jackie will
do most of the journalling with Tony being the consultant. So....fasten
your seatbelts!! Are you ready for this RV tour? Come and experience natural
wonders, cities and small town America through our eyes... |
 Ed
& Marilyn "The Happy Wanderers"
Welcome to our website!
After years of morning conversation over coffee, countless visits to RV
dealers, many happy weekends of travel and camping in smaller RV's and
three backpacking trips in the Grand Canyon, we have made the decision
to become full-time RVers. We have ordered a Doubletree Mobile Suites 36TK3
and a Ford F350 Diesel DRW with the Tow Boss package to tow the RV. Our
home has been listed for sale and I have turned in my resignation from
my job as an instructor at Flight Safety International, Inc. We ask you,
our friends and relatives, as well as anyone else who might be interested,
to follow along as we make this long time dream come true, to wander along
the roads of this great country. We will share this journey with all of
you, the good and the bad. So, be patient, as we go along trying to make
this new lifestyle a reality. |
