We were at a state park last week, kind of rainy weather. I washed the windows of the RV and cleaned the gutters and seeds from the tops of the awnings. Then I used the Solution to clean the top half of one side of my RV before it started to rain again.
So, if the kids are settled into something, I have books, or I do some RV maintenance. Otherwise walk the dogs, play frisbee or ball, go swimming, grill dinner...the usual!

I am living in my RV in Yuma AZ. I actually live in Tampa FL - I commute about once every 3 weeks (via my jet aka US AIR).
When I am in the MH, I have plenty to do. I tinker with the MH, car, surf the Net, watch Sat TV (very little). I spend most of my time outside under my awning watching the world go by.
I take my blood pressure every morning and log it. I can tell you there is a definite drop in blood pressure since I have "moved" into the MH.
I have seen a Bob Cat - up close just before sunset, I watched a Hawk attack a Dove in flight and bring him down and rip hime apart, I have had road runers within about 6 feet of me.
Best part is having coffee outside in the morning and just listening to the Dove's sing.
I have fellow RVers come by in the morning and wish me a good day. I had a guy delay his return to Idaho by 24 hours so he could go by the local Roadmaster dealer to get me a brochure on what he recommended for my Toad brakes.
On weekends, I have a hard time not taking a nap. There is nothing like sleeping in a RV especially if you have a nice steady rain outside (not something we get often in Yuma mind you). In short, it is a laid back life style. It may not be for everyone - but it suits me just fine!
Hope you can slow down and find the peace.

Sounds like you are still going 90 mph! Slow down. Sit. Relax. Does everything have to be planned out? Maybe you need to increase your medications!

I'm not dustytuu, but I have a permit to carry a concealed weapon and just googled that for kentucky. My Kentucky site shows me which states reciprocate. Not sure if that's on target to what you are looking for but it may be a start...

it's all about relaxing and family time. if we want to go for a hike, we hike, bike, we bike, swim, fish, whatever feels like relaxing to us at that point in time, is what we do. i love to kick back in the reclining camp chair in the sun, kick the feet back, have a cold on in hand, and listen to the waves of lake superior crash into the shore. very relaxing. it's all about getting away from the cell phones, work, pagers, all that crap, and tuning everything out.

Currently in Page Spring campground in AZ. In the past week have been watching the Mallards, Wood Ducks, Blue Heron, Grackles, Humming Birds, Cardinals and many more. Watching a Muskrat swimming, Trout feeding, taking some great pictures of all with my Nikon D200. Then processing them in Adobe Lightroom, usually keeps me busy until about 11pm.

The picture below is a barn we found in Missouri while being lead by our GPS. We would have never seen this traveling on the interstate.
 That's it - There is just so much to see in this wonderful country, and in Canada and Mexico too. Just slow down and take it all in, a day at a time.
