one!

| After
my amazing summer of 2011 along the shores of Michigan's Great
Lakes, I'm working on a new website about that (MichiganMiles.com).
I'm excited about the new design and like how people can comment
on each page, sharing their own experiences and tips, so I hope
you'll check that out. It's still in the "baby stage"
but I'm having fun getting pages transferred over from here
to there, and creating new pages.
Right
now I'm back in Austin with the continued debate of whether
to keep sinking money into this 12 year old motorhome, or
trade in on a newer, maybe smaller model. Here's my blog post
about going to the recent RV Expo: RV
Show Drooling. Any tips or feedback? I'd love to hear
from you!

| Preamble
(before I really get to ambling...) |
|
I
am a fulltime RVer and consider myself extremely blessed to be able
to live this lifestyle. I've experienced a lot since starting in
2001 and want to share what I've learned along the way. So much
of it came from other RVers, who are some of the most friendly people
on earth, always so willing to help and share. I hope to continue
this tradition and "pay it forward" by being of service
to other traveling souls. We most certainly are a special
breed!

What
inspired this site:
|
|
I've
kept an online journal called "Inspiration's Journey"
(www.MaliasRV.com)
since I took off as a way to share what I was seeing and feeling
with my family and friends. My first article, "Alaska
Alone," was published in the Good Sam magazine, "Highways"
in 2005. The response to this and to my journal inspired me to begin
work on this site to provide info to RVers with our specific needs
in mind. After all, there's a lot of info we who drive something
36' long, towing a car behind us, need that a little Toyota doesn't!

|
| My
goal for the site: |
|
I
will provide my honest reviews of the campgrounds I visit, including
pictures not shown on their own website. Beyond the dry stats, I
will also give my impression of the feel of the place - how friendly
are the people - the kind of things I would like to know before
deciding on where I want to live, even if it's only for a couple
of days.
Besides
camping choices, I'll let you know about some of the local activities
and businesses. And while I will partially support this site by
selling ads to places I have visited and endorse, no one gets to
approve what I say in my "2 Cents" section. I've had businesses
want to change what I highlighted in my opinion, and that is one
area in which I will never compromise. I want whoever reads this
site to know that I mean what I say and that my reviews cannot be
bought at any price. What I write about and what I say will always
be my choice alone.
So
as I begin this venture, I hope you will become my traveling partners.
I will always welcome your feedback and want to hear of anything
else you would like to see here. The site is most definitely a work
in progress and will be expanding as I continue my journey.

| Site
Layout: |
|
Besides the General RV Pages with its sub-categories, it's basically
organized by state. Within each state are the locations and attractions
seen there with links to them on the left hand side of the page. Google
seems to have indexed the pages within the site pretty well, so if
you're looking for something in particular, use the Search Malia's
Miles box located on every page. |

Your
comments and feedback matter to me. The only way I know
if this site is of any value to you is if you tell me about
it - my mailbox is always open... |
