RV Trekker Picks & Tips - 2 - (previous page) (next page)

With rising gas prices, Bellingham Chrysler's
GEM™ Global Electric Motorcar is the hottest
auxiliary vehicle for RV Trekkers around. This
little gem of a car comes in four customizable
all-electric models, in two and four-seat
versions, and both golf cart and low-speed
neighborhood vehicle styles. The low-speed
styles run at 25 miles per hour, and are street
legal in zones of 35 mph or less - great for
running around town. They're already popular
in the San Juan Islands and Palm Springs,
and the higher gas prices rise, the more
interest in these power-smart vehicles is
growing. When you're out on the road, let
your RV get you there, and when you're at
your campground, let the GEM™ get you
around. With the price of gas, the GEM™
will pay its way in no time! And you can
even customize it to haul the stuff you can
buy with the money you'll be saving.

RVs become more homey when you add
special touches, like beautiful accessory
rugs. These gorgeous throw rugs are just

two of hundreds of RV-sized authentic, hand-
made Persian carpets at the Authentic Rug
Gallery in Bellingham, Washington. These
collector-worthy pieces are the real thing, and
the family business takes pride in its personal
service. They have rugs in all sizes, to fit the
smallest RV or the largest home. And, if
you're already a collector, the gallery also
does traditional cleaning, repair, restoration,
and appraisals.

The right accessories for your RV make for easy living.
Some of the greatest
accessories RV Trekker
has found come from Grandiflora Home & Garden
in Lynden, Washington. One
of the niftiest is this folding,
handled wicker serving tray
table. The legs fold up flat for
easy storage and travel.
When you get to the
campground, set it up for
simple, easy, elegant outdoor
serving.

Add colorful place mats
(trimmed with buttons at the
corners), simple gourmet
soup and dip mixes,
cookware, tablecloth & a
cook's apron. You can even
find decorative signs, like this
Easy Living one, to jazz up
your rig in the outdoor garden
accessory area of Grandiflora.
Not pictured here, but
something we also like at
Grandiflora is a line of soaps
and lotions from The Thymes
that come in yummy scents
like Mandarin Coriander,
Limon and Lavender. Our
favorites are the unique,
exotically-scented dish and
laundry soaps that come in
convenient sizes for RV
trekking. Some also come
with handy, reusable storage
caddies.

RV cooking has never been better
than with The Ultimate RV Cookbook,
available at Kitchen Konnection in
Lynden, Washington's, Dutch Village
Mall. This clever guide to the RV kitchen
comes with complete menus, shopping
lists and recipes to last an entire trip.
And, for menu-making of your own, the
Kitchen Konnection also features a
mouth-watering array of Pacific Northwest
gourmet foods, including jams made from
berries grown on local farms, teas, honey,
soup mixes, hazelnuts, and huckleberry
syrup.

If you're a visitor to the Northwest in your
RV, a good way to take home memories
is with local art. Connections Boutique in

downtown Bellingham, Washington, has a
fascinating array of works by local artists
and craftspeople, including painters,
jewelers, and musicians. Pictured here
are examples of prints, cards, and
unique jewelry made with Northwest
beach glass - all at amazingly affordable
prices!.
