Million Dollar Amphibious RV
I did not know that there was such a thing as an amphibious RV, much less a million dollar one! What will they think of next?
This is a blog for the RV enthusiast and particularly baby boomer RVers (like myself ) who are just starting out in their retirement and contemplating the purchase of an RV or currently own an RV and are looking for useful information relating to RV's and RVing. RV Parks to RV dealers, fixing an RV, where to buy, where to sell, what to cook, how to care for a pet on the road and other issues affecting RVers. We hope to engage, enlighten and entertain the boomer RVer, while at the same time providing them with valuable information pertaining to RVing. Whether your goal is to motor around the USA in your luxury motorhome, tow a fifth-wheel to your favorite fishing spot, or just take a weekend camping trip in your pop-up camper BoomerRVer wants to be your #1 resource for all things RV.

As a baby boomer who came of age in the 1960's, a die- hard Beatles fan and admirer of Paul McCartney in particular AND to coincide with the Rolling Stones Special Collectors Edition issue – featuring the 100 greatest Beatle songs of all time – I wanted to share some of the photos I took at Paul McCartney's up and Coming Tour stop in Phoenix, Arizona last May.
It was a heck of a show and because Paul McCartney is such a gentleman and allows photography by the audience I was able to get some pretty cool shots of his show. Thanks Paul!
If you want to see some of the other great images I captured at his Phoenix concert, check out my Flickr photostream Enjoy!
PS. Special thanks to Shironda Deerwoman for her help with Photoshop.

They named it Dodge Ram, pretty original don't you think?
More than 11,000 boomers turn 50 every single day! And what market do you think the RV industry likes to target? Baby boomers, of course! When those boomers finally reach Boom Gra La after retiring from the daily grind they rush out and either rent or buy an RV, as evidenced by the dramatic rise in numbers of baby boomers loading up their RVs and taking to the road.
Baby boomers are hitting the highways in their newly purchased traveling homes in record numbers, even in a bad economy. U.S. ownership of RVs is skyrocketing, and the trend is expected to continue upward for the forseeable future.
Our country's very first baby boomer, Kathleen Casey-Kirschling, born at two seconds after midnight on January 1st, 1946, is already cashing her retirement checks! She warns, The "Silver Tsunami" a virtual tidal wave of boomer retirees are coming!

Rumors abound about our Social Security system about how it will be bankrupt when the baby boomers have bled it dry sometime around 2018?
This boomer happens to believe that he earned the money that will someday be paid out in tiny little monthly amounts and that he will never live to see what he paid into it.
My wife just retired at age 62 and it was a mutual decision for her to start collecting SS benefits. One reason was, we needed the income, and another was – why wait, on our country's present economic course you never know what might happen. We could be owned by China by then and I don't think they would be inclined to honor a broke system.
Our readers want to know what you plan on doing when you get close to the eligible age. Will you wait until you are older for larger benefit amounts or will you take the money at age 62 and run?
