I finally got around to writing our RV Trip report for the trip to Guadalupe River State Park back in October of 2008. Check it out at: http://thegaskins.dyndns.org/wordpress/?page_id=45
Well, I finally upgraded to the latest Wordpress release today and changed my web site look and feel (theme). Check it out.

Before we made our big camping trip out to Big Bend National Park back in March, I purchased a Garmin Nuvi 200W GPS system. I did a fair bit of research and had it narrowed down between a Garmin and a TomTom. All the reviews I read pretty much indicated that the Garmin had the best navigation engine.

My daughter and I love to kayak and we love to go camping with our travel trailer. However the combination of these two presented us with a problem. My kayak is 8 feet long the bed of my truck is only 5.5 feet long. Therefore hauling my truck and towing my travel trailer (camper) at the same time can’t be done. So I went in search of a rack system for my truck bed.

When I purchased my travel trailer, I purchased a Tekonsha P3 Brake Controller to handle the electric brakes on the trailer. I did a lot of research and settled on this specific controller. I paid $120.00 for it via an internet purchase.

Back in March for our trip to Big Bend National Park, we purchased a Coleman PerflectFlow Camp Grill.

If you have Windows computers in your home or office that need to print to a shared printer on your Mac, here is an easy solution for you. Apple has this neat technology called “Bonjour”. Here is the definition of Bonjour from Apple’s whitepaper on the topic:
Bonjour is an open, standards-based networking technology that automatically connects electronic devices on a network, allowing them to interoperate seamlessly without any user configuration. It is the first technology to deliver true zero-configuration networking over the standard and ubiquitous IP networking protocol, providing automatic Internet Protocol (IP) network configuration and dynamic discoverability of services. Bonjour simplifies traditional networking activities like file sharing and printing. It also enables innovative solutions such as music playlist sharing with iTunes and automatic buddy discovery with iChat AV—just two examples of the exciting new ways for devices to communicate with one another.
My RV section of the web site is up to date. It has a ton of good information on our RV experiences including trip reports. Enjoy!
