Do You Ever Ask Yourself "What is the Point of RVing in Canada"?
Recently, one of my readers sent me an email describing what he thinks are the Reasons RVs are Popular. It made me think of why many of us are either full time RVing or at least owners of RVs.

The reason this blog post is being written is because I encountered an issue this morning. I realize now that not all RVers know how to be considerate of other RVers when using RV Parks Laundry Rooms.
Maybe no one ever explained to them some of the common courtesies we try to follow in the RV Parks laundry rooms.

I know it sounds too good to be true! But when I questioned Fraserway RV as to how we could get an RV rental in Canada for $1 per night I was told it was absolutely true! So, what’s the catch?
