RV Cooking
Sausage, Peppers and Onions
A good sausage sandwich is a staple for Ginny and I. My obsession started when I was a teen in my home town of Olean, NY. Our favorite after school hang was a place called Angee’s.
Nutty Burger
Camping and burgers are like bread and butter, they just go tougher. With a little pre prep at home. You could bring these burgers to table in no time at all. Make these at home, seal a meal them for the trip and your off and running
Chicken And Dumplings
There is nothing like comfort food while camping. Add a little cool fall weather and you have the perfect conditions for this recipe. It is one of our favorites. A little pre planing prior to leaving on your trip will go a long way with this. See the recipe for tips.
RV Park Reviews
Heritage RV Park
Newly Updated as of April, 2021. This would not be a holiday or vacation location in our opinion. However, if your looking for a short stay to visit with a family member that might be stationed at FT Gordon and you are not military this is minutes away from Gate #1. Maybe you are headed east on I-20 to the beaches of GA or South Carolina, the perfect spot to overnight is right here. Fortunate enough to have tickets to the 2020 Masters Tournament, they have a special rate for you and Augusta National is but 15 to 20 mins away.
Carlsbad KOA
I felt it was time to revisit this review and update our findings on the RV Park. We have now stayed twice at this location so this review will reflect both of those stays. The park is located approximately 25 miles north of downtown Carlsbad off route 285. This puts you about 50 mins or so northeast of the main attraction Carlsbad Caverns National Park. There are three other RV parks in the area that would put your closer to the National Park. After taking in several reviews of the park choices we felt this KOA would be our best option given the reviews of the other locations.
Oasis Amarillo RV Resort
We were looking for a new RV park near Amarillo, TX. Our go-to had always been The Big Texan. Nothing against the Big Texan, we liked the place and the staff but we needed a change. I try to pick locations based on our next destination. In other words, if we are heading west, get to the west side of a city for a less stressful drive out.

Tips
Bring In The Crane
We use our truck on and off through the year to haul, yard debris, landscaping, mulch and such. The hitch is a 175 lb problem when you want a clean bed to work with. Ginny and I thought we could easily handle the hitch once we took it apart. Not so as we found out,...
Propane Monitor
Propane management is certainly very important particularly durning cold weather. Yes you can spend $80.00 to install a monitoring system that you can read on your levels on a smart phone.
Microwave Safe
One of our early discoveries while we were on our maiden trip was the glass rotating tray in the microwave presented a problem. As we traveled the tray would take a beating bouncing around as we moved down the road.
