    Some thoughts from an old mind...

    <br />Punk.hippie, if someone is shoving religion down your throat, christian is the wrong word for it because&nbsp;A true christian wouldn't do that.<br />I am a christian, and I would love to sit down with you and talk with no motives. Everyone has their own beliefs and I respect that. I would...

    Some things just dont work out.

    I also want to say that I have never had friends like you who encourage and give ideas and are positive in spite of the things you have to deal with. It's new for me.<br /><br />Most of the people, I guess I call them friends, have always joined with me in the problems I've had instead of...

I'm not giving up...

    Some things just dont work out.

    Your right Seraphim, its not a failure because Im not giving up. So its a setback. <br />Its hard for me to see past things like this because I've never really succeeded at anything. I've done well at times and managed to get by..but never really had success. So I guess when things like this...

    Some things just dont work out.

    Hi everyone. I logged in to let you know my dream of travel isn't working out. I was hoping to save money and hit the road before winter...but no such luck. Quitting my job and then the problems with my truck really struck a blow on my finances. For now it will be all I can do to just survive...

    Another Odd Question!

    Most of the time when I use my solar shower I end up having to add hot water to make it warm enough. You need a good amount of sunshine and warm temps for it to work. The south would probably be fine. <br /><br />Im working on an idea for a heated shower. No lifting involved. If it works out It...

    Another Odd Question!

    I use a solar shower when Im in the woods. I stand on my cooler and tie a rope around the tree and hook the shower to that. For you ladies, you can buy a small block and tackle setup. they are small, and cost under ten dollars. Just hook it to the rope on the tree and hoist the bag up and tie...

    Can't wait to hit the road!

    Hi Katelynn, Glad to have you with us.<br /><br />I would also suggest you carry extra belts and radiator hoses if possible. They are small and dont take much room. And purchase a small tool kit with basic wrenches and screw drivers. A hammer, adjustable&nbsp;wrench and pliers are always handy...
