Re: skoolie days
Camping D'Aoust in Staint Lazare, Quebec. Very nice people and a beautiful campground. Welcomes Skoolies. Very children & pet friendly. They even close the pool between 5 & 6 for supper.(never seen that before) Great playground for the kids. It even has street lights for when it gets darker.
This place is going on our list of places to stay.

Re: skoolie days
Looks like a blast.
I really like the skoolie in the woods picture.

Re: skoolie days
Geez! Kinda points out how uniform and drab sticks-n-staples RVs are. And I'm sitting in an RV park surrounded by the things. Only time we get a bit of colour is when one of theose big pricey rigs rolls in... you know... the ones that look like an interior designer threw up in paint on it. Ugly graphics.

Re: skoolie days
And the sad part is, most of the graphics are vinyl and fade out after only a few years, I know I have had 2 motorhomes with vinyls graphics plus a 5th wheel.... all three faded out because if the sun ... the last motorhome was a diesel with all body paint
and was 12 years old and still looked great....... Sold it too

Re: skoolie days
We've been on the road for 18 days so far and we've only seen 1 other skoolie. It was awesome... like seeing a long lost friend... there was horn honking and lots of waving done by both skoolies. Skoolies are the best.

Re: skoolie days
20 days on the road, 5038kms driven so far, bus is running like a clock, all system working perfect, tested everything on some very rough roads, all good, have internet in some camps(like this one) (Im overlooking the atlantic ocean in murphys cove Nova Scotia CD) fuel milage worst 10.2 mpg , best 10.8 mpg,
havent added any oil, driveing 92-94kms per hour, about 2300rpm, seems to be the sweet spot.
its all good, would be nice to see another skoolie
