This is what happened to Michelle Fontaine.She started boondocking and working a lot more from her trailer, so with some help from Go Power, we’ll see how she increased her solar power capacity. Later in the show, Jeff Johnston takes us on a quick stop to the Inn Town Campground in Nevada City, California. Of course, what’s camping without preparing some great outdoor meals?

Even with fuel costs up, you can still enjoy a fantastic RV and camping adventure without breaking the bank. You’ll be surprised how many fun destinations are less than a tank away as Michelle Fontaine shows us. If you’re looking to upgrade your RV interior, you have a couple of choices. One, you can do the work yourself, or have an interior design company do it for you. To see just what’s involved in an interior upgrade project, Jeff Johnston paid a visit to Dave & LJ’s RV Interior Design in Woodland, Washington to find out for himself. Then, on “Paws on Board,” Mark and Dawn Polk from “RV Education 101,”are not only veteran RV experts but also devoted pet lovers who take their dogs on with ’em virtually everywhere they travel.

On our first story, we’ll explain to you what over 70% of all RVs share in common, and the answer may surprise you enough that you may want to consider making some changes to your RV, and with winter knocking on the door, you may want to consider joining about a million other RVers flocking to Quartzsite, Arizona, for the winter. There’s lots to see and do there between January and early April, as Michelle Fontaine shows us from her last visit there. Then we have an unusual Paws On Board segment for you this week, as we head to the Arizona desert and catch up with a couple of the gals from the Arizona Border Collie Rescue, along with a few of the thousands of dogs they have rescued over the years. Looks like these border collies love RVing and camping also. Later, we join Mark Polk from RV Education 101 as he shows us a new, simple way to measure the weight distribution on your trailer.
