RV-ing is as much Fun for your Pets as it is for You

by Laura Weaver

I often accuse my husband of buying our motorhome for the “other woman” in his life…our 8-pound Maltese-Shih Tzu mix. Our furry little bundle of joy came into our lives at a time when I felt particularly lonely because all of our children had become adults and were involved in lives of their own. I desperately needed to mother something. After years of coaxing (nagging?), my husband finally agreed to visit a breeder just to look at the puppies. Once there, he was hooked! We selected the calmest, quietest, most adorable puppy there…the one whose eyes pleaded with us to choose her.

Since our puppy was too young for us to bring her home with us that day, we paid a deposit for the breeder to hold her for us until she was able to join us two weeks later. This gave us time to pick up all of the necessary doggy supplies, find a reputable veterinarian, and decide on a name. Because we were hoping to travel extensively in the near future and not really have any permanent home, “Gypsy” was the most appropriate choice.

Shortly after Gypsy came to live with us, we found a very comfortable, affordable used motorhome to use for our travels. Gypsy immediately adapted to these new surroundings. Her favorite hiding place is under the passenger captain’s chair. Her doggy bed fits comfortably beside the bathroom door. Her food and water bowls are handily placed below the refrigerator. Numerous doggy toys collect under the banquette table. She even has her own cubby for keeping her grooming supplies and treats. The size of our motorhome gives Gypsy ample room to walk, roam, and play.
Camping World
RV-ing is a wonderful travel option for pets. Gypsy is a great little traveler and is used to this routine. While on the road, we stop at grassy rest areas in order to exercise Gypsy, as well as give her ample opportunity to answer “nature’s call”.

Since we have the ability to prepare lunch in our motorhome, we do. We usually try to find a quiet location with a scenic view in which to enjoy our meal. By doing this, it gives Gypsy ample time to eat and drink, too. Gypsy is also secure in the fact that she won’t be left alone in a vehicle that is either too hot or too cold, like so many other traveling pets, while their owners go into a restaurant for meals.

Overnight camping in our motorhome is very comfortable for Gypsy, as well. Unlike motel stays, many of which do not allow pets or charge an extra fee, almost all campgrounds accept friendly breeds of dogs. When we check into a campground, we simply request a site with grass or one near the Pet Area…a place Gypsy would enjoy. Some campgrounds are so accommodating that they have treats on hand and even provide the “doggy-doo” clean-up bags.


Of course, once we are set up at our campsite, Gypsy is eager to explore the campground, as are we; so we take her on a walk to acquaint her with her surroundings. Instead of feeling insecure in a strange place, Gypsy has learned to accept that even though the scenery changes, our RV is her motor-”home”. She is comfortable in it. In fact, we can even leave her unattended for a while in order to go sight-seeing, shop, or eat dinner at a restaurant without her feeling abandoned.

Like us, pets enjoy traveling in an RV. They appreciate the relaxed pace. They feel secure because their surroundings are familiar. They are comfortable because all of their needs are met. Most importantly, traveling in an RV allows them to be with their owners on trips of a lifetime. Gypsy can vouch for that…just ask her.

The Types of Trout Fishing Lures

Posted: October 27th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Outdoor Activity | Tags: , , , | No Comments »

Many people like going fly fishing for different reasons. Some just take up this hobby for relaxation whereas others do it also for the entertainment and joy of actually catching fish. No matter your personal perspective on fishing, if you are going to practice it, you’ll most surely need the proper fly fishing gear especially for fly fishing beginners.

There are all sorts of factors that influence the choice of the gear items, and the fish species you are after is one of the most important ones. Thus, if you go fishing for trout, for example you’ll need special bait, and special lures. Even within fishing for this species of fish, it is important to carefully consider the kind of trout fishing lures you will use, as the lures are also specially designed for certain types of trout.

If we think of the rainbow trout that many like to go for, we will see that there are various trout fishing lures designed for the different types of fishing, and considering when and where the activity will take place. Thus, most of the rainbow trout fishing lures can be divided into four groups as follows: trout bait, trout jigs, trout spinners and trout flies.


Let’s consider bait trout fishing lures first. Trout bait ranges from live bait – things like nightcrawlers, to homemade dough bait. It is true that you can also use pieces of food (kernels of corn or marshmallows) put on a treble hook. Trout jigs make another group of trout fishing lures that fishermen rely on. The lures called jigs are made of soft plastic or rubber with hair/feathers attached to them. The drawback of these jigs is that when using them frequent snags may occur because of logs, rocks or over-hanging branches.

Trout flies and spinners enjoy good popularity as well. In the case of flies any type of live insect works but dry flies, wet flies, nymphs and streamers are even better solutions. Matching the hatch is the only requirement for the use of flies as fishing trout lures. Last but not least, spinners make another viable option. As said before, it is important to choose the adequate type of trout fishing lures to ensure a successful trout fishing trip.


Why Paintball Marker Kits Should Be More Affordable

Posted: October 27th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Sports | Tags: | No Comments »

Paintball is definitely played with everyone of all ages from kids to young adults, and up to those who are already highly experienced with sports similar to paintball. With this broad spectrum of players, it is often a difficult agenda to choose which paintball marker kit is best for who; hence many manufacturers are actively revising and manufacturing different sorts of paintball marker kits in order to cater well to the public.

It is with the best intentions to accommodate everyone with their ideal type of paintball marker kit that is at par with their level of expertise and experience. In spite of this, paintball shops all over have not directed their attention to those whose interest and needs continue to grow. Most of the paintball shops are still catering more to those professionals who are highly interested in the sport and they sell paintball marker kits that the interested public finds a bit expensive for mere recreation purposes.

Recommendations

If it is the intentions of those who are highly enthusiastic about the sport and are paintball shop owners to make the sport alive, then they should start on having cheaper paintball marker kits in order to reach out to some amateurs – this will not only make the sport more popular, but will increase the possibility of financial success as well.


Newcomers to the sport are almost always concerned with details such as the total costs and safety, hence these are the points that paintball marker kit innovators should give focus to. Often, newcomers check on paintball marker reviews that they usually find online and in the paintball shops; thus it is the obligation of these shops owners to help them out with their interests by providing accurate and updated reviews on paintball marker kits and other paintball accessories.

Paintball marker package manufacturers can opt to hold tournaments where they can showcase their creations for the general public to observe. It should always be that these tournaments have categories both for professional paintball players and to new comers of the sport.

Tournaments such as these serve multiple purposes, such as allow people to develop a more advanced understanding of the sport. Also, it allows innovators to test their products to see if there are any flaws in their own designs. Finally, players testing the equipment are able to provide their input in terms of improvements that can be made.

Even though most people have heard of paintball, it is still not a sport that is completely understood by many who don’t know much about it. These paintball shop owners can help a lot in melting several misconceptions about the sport and most importantly in developing ways to move the sport closer to the interested general public!

A good quality pair of sunglasses to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and glare is exceedingly important. You should also invest in a good landing net.

Knowing the Types of Fly Fishing Equipment You Will Need in the UK

Fly Fishing Equipment

On numerous occasions, there’s a ritual you’ve probably witnessed. Every weekend, millions of people decide to pack up their rod and reel, take the boat out on the water and spend a nice day looking to hook the big one.  Fishing is probably one of the most popular recreational sports today.  For so many people, the lure of getting out on the lake or in other waters is inescapable.  For lots of others, fishing can be considered a necessary getaway.  Fly fishing has much apparent popularity.  With this in mind, it is key that anyone in the UK who wants to be the greatest fisherman tries to find the right fly fishing equipment.

Fly Fishing Equipment

In days past, it was likely that you’d find fly fishers going out for salmon or perhaps trout.  Now, it could be just as common for a fly fisher to search for carp…even bass, among other fish.  One of the first things a fly fisherman should be aware of is what sort of fly they’ll use for casting (putting the line in the water).  The fly you choose needs to be something fish will want; anything from hair to fur can be used for artificial flies.


Fly fishing gear is more than the fly you pick, other items to keep in mind are your rod and reel.  Your fishing rod for this system tends to differ in size based on whether you intend to fish in salt water or whether you favour freshwater fishing.  Keep in mind that conditions also tend to dictate the form of casting you perform.

Fly Fishing Equipment

Another interesting development in fly fishing supplies involves the role of technology.  With GPS technology, more fishers are finding and keeping excellent spots to fish.  They can also provide you with much information on many lakes, particularly if you decide to fish in the UK.

So remember that whatever fishing gear you require, you can buy it and the best part is fly fishing equipment in the UK doesn’t have to cost much.  If you have the right items, you won’t really need a bunch of bells and whistles.

Fishing Tackle Boxes

Fishing tackle boxes sometimes are not noticed, however, they are vital equipment. Fishing tackle bags however, are gaining wide popularity with UK fishermen mainly because of their adaptability. The following information is about tackle bags and the large number of technological aspects they have.

Fishing Tackle Boxes

Purposes for Thinking About a Tackle Bag

The method you use to stow your fishing gear, whether it’s a tackle box  or tackle bag has to be user- friendly. A tackle bag has the benefit of appearing like luggage and that makes it effortless for travelling. A bag with soft sides is usually able to hold more fishing tackle than a hard- sided box of equal size. These bags come in a variety of colours and styles, from the ever-popular outdoorsman’s camouflage to an elegant leather-trimmed piece of gear. Fishing tackle bags are predominantly constructed from rough, heavy-duty materials including ripstop 900 denier nylon. Nylon fabric is also easy to clean, mildew resistant, rot resistant, abrasion resistant and quick drying. The nylon in the tackle bag is lots of times polyurethane treated for extra strength and water resistance.

Fishing Tackle Boxes

Other Desirable Features of Tackle Bags


Given the fact that these tackle go through many kinds of weather, obtain a bag which has a bottom supported with an added layer of fabric. Make a point to look for a bag that is promoted as being entirely water resistant and with a PVC covered bottom on the outside. Having fortification on the bottom and sides makes the finest bags. The bag should have sturdy and versatile carrying straps. A detachable padded shoulder strap is also a desirable feature. Lots of outside pocket zippers on the sides and front are the marks of a great bag. Some bags have front pockets with zippers around 3 sides. After you open the zipper completely, you see organizing components and such as pen pockets, clips, and pouches to place your keys  and other little things in. The interior of a tackle bag is also be flexible. Several are made with partitions which can be put on or taken off according to the fisher’s wishes. Also the upper flap of some bags come with clear zipper pockets. In addition, this kind of bag is expected to have the kind of strap which will allow for protection while transporting rods.

A taxing situation is when you can’t come up with a component of your fishing equipment at an crucial time. Fishing tackle boxes and especially tackle bags, are essential pieces of gear to keep UK fishermen more systematically sound.


Beginner Fly Fishing Gear Checklist

Posted: October 27th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Outdoor Activity | Tags: , , , , , , | No Comments »

Essential Beginner Fly Fishing Gear

Once you have purchased your fly rod, fly reel, and fly line, you will require other beginner fly fishing gear before you can start with the sport of fly fishing. This guide describes the essential fly fishing gear and tools required for the beginner angler.

Fly Fishing Flies

An essential part of fly fishing – you won’t catch any fish with the wrong fly fishing flies. The species of fish you intend to catch determines the types of flies that you should buy. When starting out, a fly selection package is a cost-effective way of building up your fly collection. A fly selection package is a selection of flies packaged for a specific region or fish species. To store all your fly fishing flies, it is a good idea to purchase a fly box. A fly box consists of various compartments so that you can organize you fly collection.

Leader and Tippet Spool

A leader is a length of tapered nylon line that sits between the fly line and the tippet. A leader separates the fly line from the fly, and does not create a disturbance in the water near the fly when the fly line is cast. As the leader is made from clear see-through material, it is invisible to the fish. A leader tapers, and the thick end is tied to the fly fishing line. Leaders come in different break strengths and lengths (normally between 7 to 9 feet), and you normally buy a specific leader to match the type of fish you intend to catch.

A tippet is tied onto the leader, and is used so that whenever you replace a fly on your line, you don’t have to cut your leader line down. Tippet comes in different diameters and breaking strengths depending on the size of the fish you intend catching. Your tippet length is normally between one to three feet in length, and you attach your fly to the end of this tippet. The diameter of your tippet line must match the diameter of the tippet (thin end) end of your leader line. For example, you will need a 5X tippet line if your leader has a 5x tippet diameter.

Fly Fishing Waders


Waders are waterproof gear that allow anglers to stand in deep water without getting wet. You can get chest-height, waist-height, and hip-height waders according to the water depth you plan to go fishing in. If you are fishing in cold climates, in cold water, then waders are essential. When fishing in warm climates, it may not be necessary to wear waders. The two main types of waders are stockingfoot or bootfoot waders. Bootfoot waders come with the boot built into the wader, and stockingfoot will require that you buy separate wading boots or sandals. The breathable Simms waders are reputed to be the best waders available today.

Fly Fishing Accessories

There are essential fly fishing accessories that all anglers should have. Its also essential that you have a pair of clippers to cut your fishing line – a pair of nail clippers can be used. A pair of fishing pliers, or a hemostat, which is used to get the hook out of a fish’s mouth or to mash down the barbs on hooks. An extremely useful tool to help keep your hooks sharp is a hook file.

Sun Protection

You will be in the sun for extended periods, so its essential to wear a hat and sunglasses to reduce the glare you get off the water. In order to see clearly what is going on under the water, and on the water’s surface, a pair of Polarized sunglasses are very useful.

Fly Fishing Vest

A fly fishing vest is recommended, and is extremely useful to keep all your fly fishing accessories and tools organized without losing items. Vests can also be used to keep you warm and dry. Here is a guide to help you buy the best fly fishing vest to suit your requirements.

That covers the essential beginner fly fishing gear that you will require in order to get started with fly fishing.

Posted: October 27th, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Other Travel | Tags: , , , , , , | No Comments »

Idaho attraction

Are you someone that is always looking for a new place to go on your Idaho vacation with challenges and yet great fun?  If so you will want to drop in on Saint Anthony Sand Dunes and take your OHV and discover the adventure offered by this huge playground.  There are over ten thousand acres of sand dunes which rise to over 400 feet for you to test your fears on.

If you are not an off road vehicle rider there are still great times available whether it is by climbing or horseback riding among the sand dunes.  There are fifeteen adventureous miles of barren sand for you to enjoy.

White Sands in New Mexico isn’t the only area with the shifting white quartz sand.  St. Anthony Sand Dunes is another one where the sand grows 8 feet each year.

There are camping sites for you to settle in at but be prepared for some rustic camping at many of them.  They are unimproved with out door biffy’s – although there are some that are full service for those that don’t want to go to the extreme.  RV’s are also permitted and there is a unpaved parking area for them with hook ups, even a store of sorts to get you those things that you forgot to pack.


Check out the adventures of Choke Cherry where you will probably have to ride up the back side because the front is too steep for most vehicles.  Then off to Devil’s Dune and Dead Horse Bowl along with a exciting variety of other locations that you will find as you ride the area.  Don’t simply visit at the “main” dunes, explore the less used, and enjoy the spot that is perfect for your desires.

Thunder Mountain is where everyone races so if you are into sport racing this is the place to be.  You probably will want to race to the top and then ride back down because the other side is very steep and not appropriate to racing.

The park is under the control of the Bureau of Land Management. There are laws, like a 5 mph speed limit in the park that must be obeyed so you don’t risk your fellow campers.  If you abuse this you will be asked to leave, and you should be!!

The dunes are located just 50 miles northwest of Idaho Falls, near St. Anthony in the beautiful Eastern area of Idaho, one of the most popular Idaho attractions.  Come and visit and come again and again, you are more than welcome.
