As I’m writing to you it is pouring rain here in San Jose, CA where we live, with not a chance of sunshine for three or four days – and it’s June 4th!
But it is the beginning of the RV season, even if the weather isn’t cooperating, so we plan a trip very soon to take advantage of the kids being out of school.
This RV season will be a bit different this year because we have a new addition to our family. Her name is Phoebe and she is a
little white ball of fur and love. She is a perfect RV size and is a very good traveler (when we’re on the road she just takes a nap).
After our long time family cat “Killer” died in March (he lived 17 years) , we started to look for a new family pet. We got very lucky and found a family that needed to find a new home for their Coton de Tulear breed dog, Phoebe.
She has been a great addition to our family. In the coming months you will see her with us as we go on our summer camping trips.
If I can pass along any tips to traveling with a dog and two very active kids I will definitely add them here.
So please welcome Phoebe to our Family RV Fun blog.

Thanks for the great website. My wife and I live in the South Bay area and are looking into getting a travel trailer. We both did not grow up families that did the RV thing so your blog wonderful way for us to imagine how we could use a travel trailer with our boys, ages 9 & 7. We are new to California and its wonderful to see all the terrific places we could go just a few hours from our home.
