Today we’re dusting off a few of our best and most well-received blog posts from the last four years in honor of our recent nomination to Tripbase’s “My 7 Links” blog project.
The aim is to unite bloggers of all different topics to share lessons learned and create a bank of long but not forgotten blog posts that deserve to see the light of day again.
Here we go!
Our 7 Links
Most Popular Post: On A Budget, Build Your Own RV
Surprisingly, more than 150,000 readers have seen this brief, 25-word description of resources for building your own van conversion, camper, trailer, or boat, from the long defunct Simple Living Network. The cool homemade fifth wheel video we added must have helped!
Most Helpful Post: Troubleshooting the Norcold N821 RV Refrigerator
The ongoing discussion in the comments we continue to get on Jim’s post about troubleshooting our Norcold RV Refrigerator has proven more helpful than the post itself.
A Post Whose Success Surprised Me: Ringing Up the Dead in Forest Park Cemetery, Brunswick NY
Who would’ve thought our rather uneventful trip to Forest Park Cemetery would stir up so many eerie reports from one of the most haunted cemeteries in America.
Most Beautiful Post: RIP Spoonie Gee
Helpless is the only way to describe the feeling of learning about the death of a loved one when you’re on the road. Oh Spoonie. We wish we could have saved you from yourself.
Most Controversial Post: Stealth Greywater Dumping: Do You or Don’t You?
Only an RVer can talk about sewer dumps and stinky holding tanks over breakfast. Learn who does and who won’t let go of skanky water out in the hinterlands, one of the dirty little secrets of RVers.
A Post that didn’t get the Attention it Deserved: How to Color Your Hair as a Fulltime RVer
Keeping my hair color in shape while living in a tiny space has been one of my biggest challenges since fulltime RVing. Am I the only one who struggles with this?
The Post that I am Most Proud of: Mad Max Meets Good Sam at the Slabs
Few places evoke such visceral reactions from RVers as Slab City USA. This objective article addresses the surprising, the beautiful and the entertaining aspects of the Last Free Place for weary travelers.

Congratulations!
