There is nothing quite like looking out of the Grand Canyon.
I first went there as a boy, for a family vacation, and it left a deep impression on me.
It was the beginning of my love affair with travel, because it gave me a hunger to see all of the world’s most beautiful places in person. After that, when I saw something amazing in a picture, or in the movies, I made a note to go and see that place for myself one day. As soon as I could travel on my own, it became my obsession, and remains so to this very day. Traveling usually means you have no say in your climate control settings, because you have to share space with many other people. I realized very early that I needed my own wheels (and my own climate control system) if I wanted to truly enjoy my travels. I did some research and found a modest sized RV that had a cutting edge HVAC system on the roof. A private seller had posted it, and I could tell from one look this guy was like me, and wanted comfort and climate control in his vehicle. We talked online for a day or so, then I went over so I could watch him tune up the HVAC system in the RV. He explained to me that if I wanted it I should understand how to provide basic service for the climate control system. I’m so excited about getting to travel around in my own air conditioned RV from now on!
