Sometimes we can get so wrapped up in making sure our RVs are in tip-top shape before hitting the road that thinking about our own health care once we're actually on the road falls by the wayside. That is, until it's too late. That's why for this episode of the Roadtreking podcast, we talk with expert Margo Armstrong, blogger at MovingOnWithMargo.com and author of "Healthcare and the RV Lifestyle." Margo and Mike talk tips for on-the-road health care in a discussion that aims to at the very least get you thinking about healthcare before you get on the road - and at the very most could help avoid a serious health disaster. Among other things, they talk about: What kind of medical records you should keep and be carrying while RVing? How to find good health care on the road What kind of research you can do online to find the right health care Why it really matters what, where, and when you eat How keeping an up-to-date calendar can help keep you healthy A test that all RVers should have have How to handle medications on the road Also in this episode of Roadtreking, we talk about a beer-drinking bear (an old story), an expansion of a beautiful campground in Florida, a new feature from Jennifer, listener questions about solar power, a traveling tech tip to make managing streaming media easier, an off the beaten path report from Colorado, and more!

Listener Johnna asks about about growing use of solar power in RVing. Mike and Jennifer respond by talking about solar power for RVing, including how big the market is now and what is driving its growth. [spp-timestamp time="5:28"] Listener Question: How Long can You Run Your Air Conditioning and Refrigerator? Another Roadtreking listener asks about running the air conditioner and the refrigerator, specifically how long both can run together. [spp-timestamp time="13:38"] Sponsoring this part of the podcast is Van City RV in St. Louis, Mo. Van City RV only sells Class B. RVs. Owner Ray Dwyer has been in the RV business for 44 years and is considered the dean of Class B RVs. Nobody knows more about small motorhomes that Ray and his crew. They have new and used Class B motorhomes in stock from the major manufacturers. When you fly in to buy your RV from Van City, they'll arrange to have you picked up from the airport and will reimburse you $500 toward your airfare. Then, your RV will be fully prepared for travel, complete with full tanks of fuel and propane. After a complete orientation with their staff on your new RV, you can take delivery and set out for home. Dan the Van Man gives the week's specials on the podcast.

It wasn't corrected until after we had recorded the podcast. Still... it's pretty funny.
