We’re heading to wine country in Paso Robles, California. A holiday weekend is fast approaching and we are finding it difficult to secure a site for the week. There are not many campgrounds and/or RV Parks in the area. There are 3 RV parks in Paso Robles and then a

Bakersfield Palms RV Park – Bakersfield, California
The reason we selected this park is they advertise a section of the RV park dedicated to “Overnighters” with 70′ pul-thrus. Perfect for when you just need a quick stopover and don’t want to unhook your tow vehicle. We have stayed in the area before and like to check out

We’re back. Seems like we were just here. Almost 3 months ago we stopped by this beautiful State Park for our first time and fell in love with it. So as we were coming back somewhat near this area we could not resist the chance to spend a few days

The nice thing about camping at Trailer Village is the proximity to the Grand Canyon Rim, the Greenway Trail, the Market Plaza, and the Grand Canyon Village. Our first course of action was walking over to the Grand Canyon Visitor Center to check things out, read the information and watch

Most are large and spacious and offer privacy. There are

Waddell? Yep, Waddell (pronounced Wah-Dell – not Wa-Dul as my sister so impatiently explained to me). I lived in Phoenix for a number of years and never heard of Waddell but there’s are lots of places I don’t know. Waddell is a small community right next to Surprise and Sun
