If the colder months caused you to hibernate and develop a case of the winter blues, spring is just the remedy. Fresh outdoors, warmer temperatures and sunnier skies are the perfect combination for the first RV road trip of the year. In this issue say goodbye to cabin fever with new places to go this spring. Wondering if you are ready to cross the border to the U.S.? Read our 11 Steps to Get Ready. While in the U.S., maybe you want to see a manatee in Florida (see page 26), visit a vintage trailer show (see page 48), or a national park in Arizona (page 52). Before you do get on the road, read our Hi-Tech section on checking your batteries - it’s a vital step. A not so crucial step, but one that may make your life easier, is bringing some new technology into your RV - How To: Make Subscribe & Save PRODUCT SHOWCASE: GET READY FOR SPRING RVING FIVE TIPS: TO GET BETTER GAS MILEAGE WITH YOUR RV A GUIDE TO HEADING SOUTH GREAT SNOWBIRD DESTINATIONS SNOWBIRDS IS PALM SPRINGS PERFECT?
