Campers Inn RV, the nation's largest family-operated RV dealership group, is pleased to announce the official opening of its newest dealership in Lebanon Junction, KY.  

Question: “I’ve reserved a great campsite for an extended stay for my family vacation this year. Can you walk me through what I should expect when we arrive at the campsite?”

Sure. But let’s back up just a little bit…

Before leaving on your trip, be sure the camper is washed and ready to travel. Don’t be “that guy” who finds his battery is bad or his water lines stink after arriving at the campsite. There may be plenty of people willing to help out, but all these little problems cut into your time for relaxing and enjoying your camper. Preparation is key!

Let’s be honest—whether you're traveling with kids, grandkids, in-laws, or your entire friend group, space matters. And when it comes to fitting the whole crew in comfortably (without stepping on toes or sleep schedules), bunkhouse RVs are the undisputed MVPs of the road.

The adventure van market has been heating up, and Outside Van’s latest offering — the Parks van — enters the scene with high expectations and an even higher price tag. Known for their custom adventure builds, Outside Van promises a refined off-grid experience in the Parks. But does it deliver on substance, or is it just another luxury Sprinter with bells and whistles?

Jacksonville is where I first fell in love with running. It’s not the Rockies or the Pacific Northwest, but there’s something special about the diversity of the forests, swamps, and coastal trails here. The mix of towering pines, palmetto-lined paths, and hidden waterways makes every run an adventure. Growing up, I ran through places like Hanna Park, Julington-Durbin Preserve, and Graham Swamp, long before I started traveling the country in my RV, chasing endurance records.

But nothing beats the unpredictability of running in Florida, and I’ve got the stories to prove it.

For many families and travel enthusiasts, combining the excitement of theme parks with the freedom of RV travel is the perfect way to create unforgettable memories. RVing offers a level of flexibility, comfort, and convenience that traditional travel often can’t match. Whether you're headed to the magical lands of Walt Disney World or the thrilling coasters of Six Flags, here’s what you need to know about RVing in and around theme parks.

Race directing isn’t just about setting up a course and watching people run. It’s a full-time job of logistics, problem-solving, and making sure 200 athletes safely make their way 300 miles across Florida. This year’s Sea to Sea Adventure Race was incredible. It started on the west coast in Crystal River and ended on the east coast in St. Augustine, with teams navigating by foot, bike, and kayak for 72 hours nonstop.
