Hi everybody. Welcome to the RV podcast. This is my lifelong traveling companion and my bride, Jennifer.

And we come to you today from a pavilion on the beach of Okalusa Island, Florida.

We're sitting here at a picnic table because it's

the annual, the daily afternoon monsoon is about to start. And we'll get pretty wet if we stay here much longer.

So we decided we needed a covering. We've got two stories that we want to focus in on right at the start,

and one of them has to do with a very tragic but frightening incident that happened on some public land

And then a little later on the podcast, we're going to talk about the upcoming Hershey RV show,

America's largest RV show.

We're going to get an exclusive preview of this year's show by the executive director.

And then we've got your RV questions and much more. So we're going to have lots to talk about. It's going to be a busy week for us.

We will be leaving the Emerald Coast area of Florida where we've been for about a week.

Heading back to our property that we're developing into our little private RV

retreat for ourselves in Middle Tennessee, near Linden, Tennessee. And we're heading there. We'll

spend most of this week in Linden. And we're pretty excited about that. We've got a couple little

projects we want to finish off. I got a feeling we'll have a couple little projects forever. Yeah, that's the thing. We're finding more and more

things that we can do on that property, and it's really fun. We'll share it all as we go. First of all,

we have some feedback that we want to pass along. We did a post on the RV

Lifestyle blog earlier this week a whole bunch of different hacks or things that you can do

that are helpful for the RV lifestyle using pool noodles. And if you haven't seen that post,

it's well worth checking because you'd be

amazed at all of them but we did get some feedback from a one of our audience
