Do you already keep a journal? I have been camping for many years, in all this time my wife Sian has kept an extensive log of our trips. Every campsite and road trip has been recorded. Whenever we pull off from a site, a rally, or a wild spot, Siân reaches for the journal and adds a few words. When we read these old journals, the memories come flooding back. Especially nice for us are sections where years ago now, the kids have recorded their thoughts and adventures.
Our journals have become valuable family keepsakes. Every Motorhomer who keeps a journal does so for different reasons. On the most basic level, your journal is a place to record information; the name of campsites and those lovely tea rooms in Woodstock, or directions to the waterfall from the campsite. It’s a log of what not to forget. It’s something to share with friends and family; or it might serve as a confidant on solo journeys. It’s a store for memorabilia such as stamps, ticket stubs, and wine labels, and can provide a clean canvas for impromptu sketches. However you use it, the rewards of reading it can be as enjoyable as the trip. You can order one here
