    It's still illegal federally. Wish it worked for me.

    I thought this thread was going to be about drivers like uber or something. LOL

    will i be happy with a suburban?

    Only you can truly figure out if you could be happy with a suburban. My health would keep me from it, but if I were to live in one I'd want one like in this video: They did such an awesome job of converting it and making it serve them well.

    Strange Metal Pointy Headed Critter?

    How about the one in the center of the bottom of the photo found here: http://wiki.dtonline.org/index.php/Nuts,_Bolts_and_Washers#Masonry_Fixings I'd venture a guess that it's meant to require a less common or specialty tool so that it's not so easy for others to remove the tanks---so if you...

    The American Dream is Killing us (Great Article)

    Jonney38, well said. Helen and Scott Nearing were my heroes. I remember Helen working to finish their cabin by herself in her 70s or 80s after Scott passed. My great grandparents were very influential on my young mind since they lived simple lives so Helen and Scott were a natural...

    hello and question

    Welcome! Sounds wonderful that you and your son will get to go to the RTR. :) X2 on going south first. I don't have any suggestions other than those that know stuff will want to know what you will be using your solar/battery for in order to have any answers for you. We love pics so if you...

    Jamie/Enigmatic Nomadic's *Build Out Your Van Party"

    Southern drawl!!! Dang. ;) I wish I could be there, not just to hear that :P, but just to be there, with or without a wheeled home. Or the RTR. To meet other ramblers. I'm so itchy to get out there!!!!

    Medical Dominoes

    Everyone dealing with the medical establishment for themselves or loved ones, I wish you the best of luck, the best of treatment, the best of doctors and staff, and my prayers are with you. Gunny, thanks.  There's not really anything for doctors to do except medicate. Whether orally or with...

    Cockroaches!

    Arctic cat, just a heads up about the boric acid. I used it for years but switched to the food grade DE when I got my last cat. It's been a few years so I don't remember the safety concerns. Please check to be sure it's safe for your working canine (proper term is escaping my mind right now.)...

    Tips for Cutting Your Own Hair?

    Speaking of longer hair, anyone have tips for cutting longer hair off a few inches in a nomad situation? Especially for someone who can't keep her arms up for a long period?

    What's your preferred Natural, Cheap soap?

    Wow! People can even vigorously discuss soap! Who da thunk it.  I'll withhold any anecdotal evidence I have about any of the ways we keep clean since there likely aren't any scientific studies since there's no money in it for anyone. I think I've mentioned in another thread somewhere that my...

    Faking Service Dogs Hurt Real SD Teams(The Law)

    Arctic cat, this makes me so mad on your behalf! It's unbelievable, but from the point of view that someone would deny you access, not that it happens. As wrong as it is, in my opinion, I'm sure it happens. I hope that you win your lawsuits and they have to pay for their discrimination!

    Cockroaches!

    Food grade DE is safe for humans and pets and works well.  Learning to identify what a roach egg sac looks like can speed the process of getting rid of roaches as sometimes the sac might be found separate from the roach. Yes, I learned this back in my days living in a roach motel apartment...

    Signature Line

    I don't get it. It's not a discussion about war or killing people---it's a quote! Now I'm feeling sorry I mentioned my experience with my Viet Nam vet friends and my opinion on their treatment, but not too sorry. It's a great quote. A quote about how significant it is to someone to have to...

    Where I'm at...

    Okay. ^ That I can get behind. Though many can't be healed of those things because they don't see that there's anything wrong so they wouldn't have any desire. I can think of a Yuuge public example, but it would be political to say more. LOL

    Signature Line

    Oh, I knew the risk if I kept reading, so don't think you shouldn't have written it on my account. I think you needed to share it, just like I needed to share my experience. At least it didn't catch me unawares like some of my triggers that people think nothing of sharing on fb. I made the...

    Medical Dominoes

    I had typed up something with individual responses only to discover I had lost my connection. When I got a connection again I went back to post it and discovered I had somehow deleted it in the meantime. Anyhow, taking a moment now to at least briefly respond my thanks in general to all since...

    A moral dilemma

    From what you've shared it may be a dilemma for you but I'd hardly consider it a moral one. It sounds like someone wanted to share with you in honor of how they felt about you're being a pleasant part of their life. If it were me I'd accept it graciously in the spirit it was given. If I were...
