Gathering at the Gulf - Oct. 8-11, Navarre, FL.















Announcing the RV Lifestyle “Gathering At the Gulf,” our fall meetup on the crystal clear waters of Florida’s fabled Emerald Coast, held at an upscale RV resort right on the shore of Santa Rosa Sound in beautiful Navarre, FL.







Imagine mile after mile of pristine, white sparking beaches and crisp Emerald-colored water. Smell the warm salt air. Feel the ever-so-gentle breeze following off the Gulf and hear the gentle purr of the waves swishing against the shore.







The location is in the Florida Panhandle, halfway between Fort Walton Beach and Pensacola. Navarre Beach is our entry to the National Island National Seashore. It is a place of unspoiled natural beauty that truly stands apart. It is the longest stretch of federally protected seashore in the United States that runs for 160 miles from east to west.







We will be camping just minutes from this breathtaking spot in the luxurious Santa Rosa Waterfront RV Resort located right on the bay and just minutes from the pristine sandy beaches.







October is Florida’s most beautiful time of the year. Gone is the humidity of summer. The days are comfortably warm, the nights pleasantly cool.

Bob and Roxy told Jon they have used a Reese Strait Line active sway control and weight distribution kit on their travel trailer and it helped a lot.







Randall said his family has learned sway bars on a travel trailer is a must. 







And Ari and Jesse said they have a Blue Ox weight distribution hitch with sway bars and they often don't even know their 30-foot Airstream is behind them - even on windy days and even with big trucks passing.







So I think Jon got his answer!







Meanwhile, in the General Discussions Space, Traci was on a road trip and was going to stop at a

This week on the RV Lifestyle RV Podcast:

In the interview of the week segment, tech talks about lithium batteries, how to replace your existing AGM or wet cell batteries, how to pair lithium with an inverter, and what you need for wiring.

Yellowstone National Park just reopened for the new season and already, there’s been a touron incident - a tourist moron who dangerously messed with the wildlife.

And we introduce a new segment at the end of the podcast - Mike & Jen’s storytime, in which we share a tale and lesson we’ve learned from our many years on the road. This week, we talk about the time we were robbed!

All this plus the RV News of the Week and your questions coming up in Episode #496 of the RV Podc
