RV-Kitty,<br><br>Well said. &nbsp;I very much agree with you, for many reasons concerning both cats and dogs. &nbsp;I observe that many people project their subconscious issues on their pets, and I think this is what happens when folks let their domesticated animals run free without containing...

I've solo'd and travelled with my husband OTR. &nbsp;I drove a big truck OTR solo. &nbsp;I'll be going full-time again solo in a few months. &nbsp;I've missed it.<br><br>There have been a only a very few times I've not felt safe, and those were mostly in places I had to put the big truck, the...

Road Pro does it again:<br><br>http://www.my12voltstore.com/Roadpro_12_Volt_Coffee_Maker_p/rpsc784.htm<br><br>That was on my xmas list. &nbsp;didn't get it, I must have been BAD.<br><br>Otherwise, I'm perfectly happy with a small stainless steel perk.<br><br>M.<br><br>PS - speaking of Oregon...

I can't imagine using a grow light system inside a small van space, unless it were very very tiny. &nbsp;Unless the technology has changed considerably, the heat generated by specialized grow lights and the transformers is considerable, and then there is the electricity to consider. &nbsp;If you...

I used to garden in the Scotty, and perch the pots outside. &nbsp;Tomatoes, peppers, etc need 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight to really do well. &nbsp;They don't do well with constant vibration, but don't mind a few hours of moving around here and there. &nbsp;I wouldn't do that to them more...

Oh Man. &nbsp;Thanks for the Calvin and Hobbs link, Steve. &nbsp;I think I wet my pants. &nbsp;They were nice pants.<br><br>"Oh look, a philistine on the sidewalk."<br><br><img rel="lightbox" src="/images/boards/smilies/rofl.gif" class="bbc_img"><br><br><br><br>M.A.

On the one hand, I echo the concern of folks who note that a badly constructed wood stove, or one constructed of wrong materials, can be deadly.<br><br>On the other hand, think of all the gypsy vardos and sheep wagons that were powered by wood stove. &nbsp;There are some tiny ones that I think...

Jack,<br /><br />Thanks for posting those. &nbsp;I especially love the 'cat comfort zone'! &nbsp;<img rel="lightbox" src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" class="bbc_img" />

I'm not on the road for a few months yet, but I'll be going out with my 12 year old retriever, Moochie. &nbsp;She's a sweetie, but is stiff and has a hard time climbing up into anything, so I'll have to make some kind of step or ramp for her to get into the van. &nbsp;She's so totally worth it...

Sounds like the smart way to go about it, Jack. &nbsp;Rocky is pleased. &nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" />

Pikachu711: &nbsp;My cat is @18 now and a bit thin and tottery, but still sweet as ever. &nbsp;And would be heartbroken to be left behind. &nbsp;Rocky, along with Hydrox, sends his regards to Pikachu and says to tell him that life begins to get really interesting at 17.<br /><br />Josephus...

Thanks, Keith!<br /><br />That is one gorgeous bus!!

Thanks Pikachu,<br /><br />I'm especially interested in how folks have solved the space problem with their crates, or if they've found other options for keeping their furry navigators safe while their vehicle is in motion. &nbsp;I've got a shorty van, and that is limited space, so I'm...

Oh dear. &nbsp;60 page views and no one has any suggestions or anecdotes?

Thanks guys! &nbsp;All it takes is an obsessive personality. &nbsp;LOL!!<br /><br />Trisha, I'll be contacting you sooner or later.<br /><br />M.A.

Just finished this.<br /><br /><br />

How do folks deal with dog crates in a van? Or it might be better to ask how people keep their furry friends safe while the vehicle is in motion. &nbsp;Crates are huge things, and I can't seem to figure out where to store them in van when they aren't in use. &nbsp;If you don't use a crate for...
