    don't know what to dooooo

    i've been thinking about getting a travel trailer myself and figured that it is cheaper to live on a campground w/o electricity-just a generator-than to have an apartment. campgrounds managed by the dnr/forest service allow you to stay for 14days, then you can go to another one. they have water...

    Keeping the dog warm!

    I always get something that can be pulled over and then I put his legs in.&nbsp; I have to cut out a 'v' shape in the neck so it fits him, sometimes I cut the sleeves off if they're too long. Getting the right size is definitely by trial and error.&nbsp; I've been putting clothes on him since he...

    Are You Disabled?

    Kodiak Canvans Flex Tents?

    I've decided that I might get a tent like this instead of a camper that I'd have to spend lots of money on fixing it up -- http://www.kodiakcanvas.com/--. &nbsp;&nbsp; I'm on disability so my income is very limited.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; <br>&nbsp;&nbsp; I also camp off road and use a rechargeable...

    Keeping the dog warm!

    My dog does get cold (he's an 80lb. rott mix and a big baby), so since they don't make big dog clothes I go to a Goodwill, buy a cool sweater, fleece vest, or tshirt in the boys section, make a few modifications and I only spent $3.99!! He also loves fleece blankets and I did spoil him and now...

    Is it wise for me to move into a Van now?

    I wouldn't do anything drastic right now, take some time and think about it. All I know is that I knew I wanted to live on the road, but I listened to everybody else and bought a small house, I had a decent place to live but I couldn't go out and do anything because I was still broke all the...

    Camera suggestions

    I've bought (and sold) many things at pawn shops.&nbsp; Make sure you test out your camera and all electronics b4 u buy, and don't pay what they're asking, otherwise I haven't had any problems. I did buy one off ebay and it sucked so I sent it back and opted to never buy electronics unless I can...

    been awhile

    &nbsp; Haven't been on here for quite a bit, lots of things changed.&nbsp; Living in Michigan with a rear wheel drive conversion van as a primary vehicle while trying to fix it up was crappy.&nbsp; I got stuck in a freezing rain storm on the highway and spun 3x's last winter.&nbsp; So...I sold...

    Juicers and Juicing

    I use to have the Montel Williams power juicer thing, you didn't have to core apples, chop things into tiny peices, you could add water, milk or soy milk, pretty much anything and it turned it into juice depending how much liquid you put in.&nbsp; <br>&nbsp; It is basically a very powerful...

    repairs:(

    I am going to drive as much as possible to get to New Mexico from Michigan, google says it takes 1 day and 1 hour, but I'm a slow driver and I'm not in any hurry. <br>&nbsp; My first destination will be Taos, I've been looking at the NM BLM campsites and that is the closest to the eastern border...

    Are the 'america the beautiful/access camping pass' worth getting?

    &nbsp; Hi, I was wondering if anyone else had an America the Beautiful Pass?&nbsp; I looked into it on the national parks website and it said it offered discounts for overnight camping at national parks and forests.&nbsp; I am going to get the Access pass since I'm on disability from a work...
