    I THREW MY PORTA POTTY IN THE DUMPSTER

    Here's what I do. I initially hated the idea of dealing with a porta pottie and the pressure of having to dump it probably every 4 - 6 days tops. So, I use a 5 lb plastic butter container with a lid. When I'm about to do my #2, I pour in about an inch of water on the bottom and stick a tray...

    Oh, I meant to add my email for the ladies. It's [email protected]. Then we can chat privately and not on here. Thanks for taking a look! Best, Gloria

    Gay Woman Looking for Traveling Partner

    Hello! Being gay and on the road sure puts us LGBT folks in even more of a minority group. Oh, well. It's the lifestyle I want and I've choosing regardless if I find a compatible travel lover/partner or not. Anyway, I'm 40, in decent shape, walk daily, and take very good care of myself. I'm...

    Heater for small dwellings, AKA; Vans Catalytic vs Blue Flame, etc.

    <br><br>I so very much want one of these now. This will be a high priority as I dislike the cumbersomeness of the Buddy heater with the hose and 20 lb Propane tank to deal with. I want a used Espar. So, I'll try to find a good deal on one. Thank you for sharing this info!<br><br>Gloria

    Heater for small dwellings, AKA; Vans Catalytic vs Blue Flame, etc.

    Okay, thanks. Yes, I see that it certainly pays for itself over time, though too big of an investment for me to make at this time. I hope I can get one in the future though. Natureglo<br><br><br><br>

    How much is the cat heater, if you don't mind me asking? I can't seem to find a price list. Thank you!<br><br>Gloria<br><br>

    Heater for small dwellings, AKA; Vans Catalytic vs Blue Flame, etc.

    Wow, Rob! That heater looks great! I like how you positioned it on the cabinet door. I JUST got my Mr. Buddy from Amazon in the mail today. It's what I can afford now, but how much is the Cat heater? I didn't see any prices listed on the website. I suppose that's to make you call them up and...

    Insulation

    <br><br>I'll look for the Coroplast at LOWE's but, I think I may need to wait on that. I'm about to jump on down to LOWE'S now to get my supplies. Are start insulating tomorrow morning! I should video the process or at least take photos of it. Wish me luck!

    Insulation

    <br><br>Thank you for sharing about this. According to Google Maps, Gassaway is 2 and 1/2 hours away. So, with the time and gas to get out there, I think I'd best just get my stuff at LOWE's a 1/2 hour away. I'm planning to complete the insulation this weekend. Gulp! Wish me the best of luck!

    Insulation

    Willy,<br><br>Thank you for your input. I have some friends that live in my community that MAY have time to help me insulate the van before I leave. If I can't get it done before I leave here (which I will do my best in my power to make happen, even if I'm hanging in there doing it myself and...

    My insurance company won't insure motorhomes that people are living in. Anyway around this?

    Okay, I'm not sure if this is a good place for my question or not, but seems to be. I've got my van which is mostly ready for full timing. I've filled out the paper work for "My Dakota address" in preparation to be a resident and get my car registered that. &nbsp;As I get ready to head west to...

    Insulation

    Okay, here's my situation, everyone. I just traded my Malibu for this beautiful (and yes, I know, it's not white) 2001 Ford E350 extended converted camper van. So, this is officially my first home! I'm preparing now to go full timing. The guy I bought it from had it outfitted for a very...

    Heater for small dwellings, AKA; Vans Catalytic vs Blue Flame, etc.

    Hey, I'm a newbie on here. I'm looking to travel out west and live in my 2001 Ford E350 extended van within the next three weeks. I'm going to travel through the northern, mid-west. It will be COLD, unless I luck out by the time I leave and there's a warm spell (fingers crossed). Anyway, I'll be...

    Gloria, another newbie!

    Thanks, Tara. I was feeling like I wanted to just stay at 50 - 55 anyway. It feels the safest speed, plus, it's better on gas mileage. Save for the occassional turkeys, I think most semi's are willing to go around me. Otherwise, there's not much they can do other than ride me and I sweat...

    Gloria, another newbie!

    <br><br>Okay, but what if it's a few months before I can get out to SD to collect my license? Will they mail to me? Should I stick with my WV license and license plate until I can pick it up in SD? Also, what do I do about insurance. I'm using Erie. I suppose I could ask that lady you mentioned...

    Robert,<br><br>I live in Mount Storm...for now. Check out Udemy and WiZiQ. They don't ask for state certification, but it's good to at least have a degree and or experience, which it sounds like you have.<br><br><br>
