it's good to hear from you again Scar. I check out honeys park from time to time. I am not supposed to let you post a link until you have 10 posts but I am going to let you slide because you are a former member and have the required number of posts. when I get up in that area I will stop by for sure. highdesertranger
 
I may have to make that a destination one of these days. How are the winters there? Thanks for the invite. :)

way cold.  highdesertranger
Bet they'll have plenty available spots in the winter then? :p
 
Hey! Nice to see you!
Honey's Park is on my list. I've been grounded, though. Can't wait to get back on the road.
Hope you're well. Thanks for the generous offer!
 
The winters get cold and a couple months a year usually gets to where I have to walk in myself as park is snow stuck. Was planning to be south myself instead of year round up here this one.
 
Mild temps and zero snow this year while the rest of the country freezes. 40 high and 10 lows several days this week. Everything is melted and no mud even right now. Looking like a drought year here
 
Weather's holding. No snow. 40 highs 20 lows pretty mild for idaho and riding the coattails on Cali and there hot spell. Winters sort of going to miss us. Warmer here right now than some of the south places I was heading too. Odd year. Upgrades for spring will be ready sooner so....
 
We'll be making a swing by stop there when we get on the road. Save some chores for me.
 
Hello Scar!!
Nice to see you over here!!
We very much enjoyed our time with you last summer!!!

I just read that Stigr passed in July. I am so very sorry for your loss.
That must have been shortly after we were there.
He was such a sweetheart!!

I hope Ruby and you are fine!!

Hopefully our paths will cross again!!
Thank you for your hospitality!
 
Thanks he was a good dog. My mom passed the week before him so last year was rough. 2018 looks good so far. Ruby is cool atm. Stop by this summer I'm upgrading electricals.
 
Hey Scar, you're on our short list of travel stops. I'm no genius but would be glad to lend a hand with any improvements I can help with. I look at things kinda weird sometimes,but, I figure Stigr is keeping your mom company. We look forward to meeting you in the near future.
 
I appreciate the thought and the offer.  Most of my spring projects that are labor intensive are done.  Now I'm down to working on my own camper which will be more slowly for financial reasons.
 
I dug and laid electrical for about 400' of trenches already and spent my budget for upgrades for others.  Silly probably but I like to have stuff others are going to use done before I worry about me; probably because the place bears the namesake Honey.  I now have 2 50A, 4 30A and a few 15A outlets out farther in my field so people don't have to be on top of me.  Annoying but while the wire is in place 2 of the 30A receptacles are delayed in shipping; but installation takes ten seconds now that everything else is in place. 

  Now the snow from last night needs to melt again, and the mud go away.  Yesterday we got 3" of rain, which for a desert establishment was tremendous.  We average 10" in a year total precip so 30% in one day didn't help the spring mud at all. 

  Look forward to meeting ya.  I don't actually watch the forums, a friend told me you posted.  Welcome to email or text direct if ya need anything.
 
I've stayed there. The owner is pleasant. But watch for the gopher holes. :)
 
Hello Honey,Thanks for the invitation.I may be out that way in a few months and will look you up.Please know that you have an open invitation to camp on my place in Ar.I now have enough solar to provide a full hook-up.

I'm in Idaho now, but much further north (Coeur d'Alene).

  I was born in Couer d'Alene.  I love North Idaho more than south.  Much prettier, more water, trees etc.  A lot of people don't get how different Idaho's climate is, being 600 miles tall.  I also find north Idaho more moderate temp wise, mostly as its actually lower in elevation mostly up there.
 
Looks like it'd be a great part of a weather route, summer maybe. If/when I can get that mobile, I'd sure be willing to help out around the place. I'd considered doing something similar eventually, just buy a piece of cheap land somewhere, and make it available "at your own risk" to friendly RV'ers.

That'd be a little while, though. I'd want to make the rounds myself for a bit first.
 
It's been a long rough summer, and the season is closing. I don't actually close but I mght as well and I may as well hit the road for five months since no one comes here in the winter. Had 540 guests this year, I only count them on the first night, so a 6 week stay is still only one person. It was fair crazy for a good chunk of summer but is obviously over now.
