It doesn't matter whether you've got a million dollar motor coach or a tiny weekender you can still take a complete set of you photographs anywhere you go. There is never enough room in a motor home for photo albums or boxes of photographs, and you probably wouldn't want to expose your photos to the additional risks associated with traveling anyway, but you don't have to go without.
By having your photos scanned you can take a complete set of your photographs with you anywhere you go. A life time of photos can easily be stored on a DVD or two. You can accomplish this by purchasing a scanner and doing it yourself or by sending your photos to a photo scanning service. Don't pay too much. Great photo scanning can cost as little as 5 cents per photo.
Once you have scanned your photos you have permanently stopped them from the natural process of deterioration caused by aging and decay. Digitized photos are easily and inexpensively copied so you can put complete copies of your photos in different locations. This protects them from destruction by natural causes. It also allows you to give complete sets of all of your photos to family members.
Once your photos are scanned you can build a slideshow that you can view on your RV's TV. If you have the skills and desire, building your own slideshow that could include adding text and music to your photos would be a great "on the road" evening project. There are lots of services that will build a slideshow for you if you prefer.
