Today's publisher's pride is  RV Oopsies   by Larry MacDonald, which reached #105 on Amazon's bestseller list for travel humor. Book Description: Every year thousands of RVers hit the road for fun and adventure, but RVing has built in misadventures-backing into a tree, bending a jack stand, and more-spoiling an otherwise perfect outing. For the past ten years, the author has asked RVers the same question: "What's the dumbest thing you've done while RVing?" Each year, he has given an award for the dumbest mishap. In this funny and helpful handbook, 101 of these mishaps come together so the reader can learn from other people's mistakes, saving them unnecessary grief and cash. - Always use a spotter when entering or departing a campsite. - Do a walk-around inspection before moving your rig. - Never flush out your blackwater tank after dressing for church. Practical and comical, this a great read for all RVers, both veterans and novices. AWARD Kops-Fetherl

Every year, adventurous folks like us go camping in our RVs, and every year, we do some dumb things. Mostly, these are minor mishaps like running out of fuel or leaving something behind at a campsite, but sometimes they are major blunders, resulting in damage to our rigs. For the most part, RVers are a pretty smart bunch! Yet, mishaps do occur not only to newbies but to seasoned roadies as well. If you’re one of us, you can probably think of at least one dumb thing that you wish you hadn’t done while RVing. The good news, though, is that all of these mishaps can be avoided. Each year, I selected ten mishaps reported to me, ranked them from Dumb to Dumbest, and published an article “RV Oops Awards” in several RV magazines in the US and Canada.
