RV Life at Winter Quarters Manatee and the Time Alli ALMOST Died!

This week’s RV adventure takes us to Winter Quarters Manatee in Florida, where we explore the campground amenities, play a little shuffleboard at sunset, and even check out the historic Gamble Mansion. But the real story comes when Alli shares her terrifying near-death experience on a sailboat as a teenager during a storm off the Florida coast. 🌊⛵️

Along the way, we also take a day trip to beautiful Anna Maria Island, enjoy some beach sunsets, and deal with more RV black tank troubleshooting (because there’s always something when it comes to RV life, right?). From fitness rooms and pools to history tours and a scary sailboat memory, this trip had it all.

If you love Florida RV camping, Thousand Trails campgrounds, RV travel stories, and exploring hidden gems like Anna Maria Island, you’ll definitely enjoy this episode!
