Located in a 36-acre park amid unique gardens of flowers, ornamentals and statuaries, this can’t-miss DeZwann windmill is more than a landmark: It actually produces flower, just like the windmills of Holland.

 |  |  | | |  A Banner Year for Ticks
By Julee Meltzer
Let's face it, 2012 was a banner year for ticks. And as we hit the road this summer, many of us will be in unfamiliar places and environments. So even if you normally don't have to worry about ticks, if you travel at all this summer, you need to be especially aware of ticks with both your family and your dogs and cats.
It was a warm winter, and this usually means more bugs the following summer. But according to experts, weather isn't the only factor.
Disease-carrying ticks will be on the prowl in a big way this year, and one expert says it's not the strangely mild winter, but rather, acorn numbers, that will lead to a spike in tick bites in 2012.

Even as an RV newbie, I was well aware of the fact that dumping was one of those things you don’t get wrong. The unfortunate consequences of such failure could (and did end up being…well lets just say we can’t use that term).

| | | Five Good Things to Know About RV GPS
Thanks to cellular technology, Wi-Fi and mobile apps, today's RVers can just about pull road maps and driving-direction information out of thin air. With so much data readily available, is it worth investing in a global positioning system (GPS) device geared to RVs? The answer is "yes"—especially if you know what to look for. Here are a few things to keep in mind when considering RV GPS devices. Rand McNally is one company that has designed a GPS device specifically for RVers, the TripMaker® RVGPS.

Hi, folks:

Experience Fort Wilderness (yes, wilderness) near Walt Disney World…stay in your own forested Disney World! Everyone loves Disney World. That’s not news. What is news is that you can camp and RV within Walt Disney World Resort. It’s true and it’s awesome. | | | | Serious Fun at Lake George RV Park
Some places have little to offer, then there’s Lake George Village…it’s almost embarrassing, how they got so much of the fun pie. | | | | Can you say “Jackson Hole” and “affordable vacation” in the same breath?
You can if you stay at the Fireside Resort and Jackson Hole Campground. No kidding! It’s true. Jackson Hole generally isn’t listed on the budget vacationer’s top ten list, but you may want to rethink that, if you have an RV (or like cool cottages). If you wheel in your own home, you’ll find the RV rates at the campground highly (as in more than) competitive with other lodging rates in the area. You’ll also find yourself living in the midst of a truly awesome location. | | | | |  |
