    Looking for Annie

    I am attempting to get a message to Annie.  We met at the La Posa LTVA during the 2018 RTR.  She owned a new Scamp which she pulled with an Outback.  She's in her 60's and tiny spitfire of a person. She lives in New York most of the year.  We have been communicating and have plans to travel...

    Oh yeah and one other thing about why I haven't put a kitchenette in the van... Moisture It isn't as much of a problem in desert areas, but in humid and wet places, you'll soon be seeing and smelling nastiness, not to mention food smells and splashes.

    Sounds like your process of getting used to living in a minivan is close to mine.  I purged a whole lot of stuff that I thought I needed but didn't. I even bought an 8 person tent for more space when camped but ended up giving it away.  My gear is down to almost what I would take on an excursion...

    Sure.  This is the panel that I bought.  Be warned though, the wiring for the charge controller is crimped and not soldered, so you have to treat it gently.  I had to get it replaced by the manufacturer. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M8LCDN2 The battery is a 55Ah AGM. I recommend...

    No, not NLP, more like the concept that your brain becomes what you focus on and the words used will reinforce brain/body chemistry that may or may not help your physical/mental health.  It's mostly based on being aware of the cognitive bias behaviors that cause us to seek out evidence of our...

    Hi Johnny, Thank you for taking the time to ask! Yes the website was gutted recently.  That was partly due to being trolled on the YouTube channel (which was subsequently taken down) and other circumstances that I am working through. I will put content back on there when I have had a chance to...

    Annie W!  Thanks so much for this! Peace! Edited to remove unnecessary quoting. Please, be considerate of those of us reading on our phones When you are reading on a phone, and you have to read the same post twice to get a new comment, it can be frustrating--especially if there are pictures...

    Thank you and glad that some of my ideas helped!  As it turns out, I am not using the bin as a tub so much, but rather, the kitchen is stored in there.  I got rid of the plastic top and have a wood board over it instead so I can access the inside easily.
