When I'm camped, I like not having any windows except up front. When I'm driving, I hate it. If I want some sunshine I'll open the doors and/or step outside.  Still living in a house for now; I hardly ever open the window shades anyway.

Where are you finding these plans? Sprint alone wants $115 a month, and throttles down to 2G speeds after 30GB.

Actually I wasn't thinking about it... I am now...  I work for a small company. They might be open to me moving my desktop computer from my server rack to theirs, and remoting into that. Sadly it would be the best computer they have. It's also probably more powerful than most laptops; I'm not...

I'm married with no kids (present or future). My wife has some but they don't live with us, so she goes and visits them from time to time. Work has prevented me from going with her to a lot of the places she wants to go, but not for long.  I'm asking her to live in exactly the opposite way from...

I'm planning to have solar, but as a backup, I want to be able to charge the house batteries off a generator or shore power. I'm sure that plugging them directly into the batteries would be dangerous, so something needs to go in between to make sure the batteries are being charged at a safe...

That's way off. Less Junk More Journey by itself has 9.4 million, and Gone with the Wynns has 24 million.

I went out this weekend to do some boondocking in some BLM land near Moab and Dinosaur NM. Some of these areas don't have Street View and only barely show you anything on satellite. Turns out some of the roads were pretty rough, even though they look perfectly safe from space. Two of them near...
