|  There are many, less flashy things to do off the Strip. Within an hour drive of Sin City is enough natural beauty and wonder to keep you entertained for much less than any Vegas show. We wanted to highlight our favorite things to do on a budget, both on and off Las Vegas Boulevard.

 (March 30, 2016) - Well, that one time we took the Airstream out, it scraped on the ground every time we were in town. Gas stations, driveways, and parking lots caused it to scrape. We're not even 100% sure where it was scraping. Sometimes it was the blue ox equalizer bars, other times it was the rear skids. |  (March 30, 2016) - We visited Four Corners Monument on our way from Mesa Verde to the Grand Canyon South Rim. This is the only quadripoint in the United States where four states come together and visitors can be in Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah at the same time. |  (March 30, 2016) - Long, boring highway drives can be excruciating even with the best electronic devices. But one section of Interstate 10 in Arizona will occupy your mind for hours and keep you wondering: just what is that famous Arizona roadside attraction called "The Thing"? |

 (March 30, 2016) - The most common reaction we get when people learn about our family's year-long trek around the country living in a travel trailer is, "So what was your favourite place?" It's not that it's an unreasonable question, it's just impossible to answer. |  (March 30, 2016) - Not a very fun drive yesterday. We don't enjoy traveling on the Interstate highways to begin with, and that whole route from Phoenix area to the California border on the I-10 is quite simply...boring. | ![DSC_0407_thumb[1]](http://letsrv.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/DSC_0407_thumb1-150x150.jpg) (March 30, 2016) - After the weekend of rain, we were ready for a great beach day, and Monday promised to be beautiful! It was a holiday for me, so we made plans to meet up with our friends camping on the beach at Perdido Key. |

 (March 30, 2016) - I've always been a fan of Scamp trailers ever since we started our small trailer search back in 2009. Whether it's because they've got a fun name or whether it's because they're built in a region of Minnesota where I vacationed when I was a little boy, they've always been one of my favorite small trailer companies. If I had a "Mount Rushmore of Small Trailers", Scamp would be one of the four on it. |  (March 30, 2016) - Arizona boasts lots of incredibly scenic drives, and one beauty is Routes 89 and 89A which double back on themselves between Page and Lees Ferry in the northeast corner of the state. This is a portion of the Vermillion Cliffs Scenic Byway, an area that is great for RV travel. |  (March 30, 2016) - One of the first things I learned about my Roadtrek was how to use the roof fan to provide ventilation. Being an old person who grew up in the south before universal air conditioning, I was familiar with the principle, because our house had such a fan. We called it the attic fan because it sucked the air in the house up into the attic. |
