Can't wait to see more. This is pretty much what I want to do but I don't have the money. I'll get there I'm determined and finally moved to an area where I'll have better job options. Best wishes on this build!

Great question! I have fibromyalgia too and have been wondering if I'll be able to live on the road too. I'm fortunate that I found a medication that works wonders for me but I still have occasional bad days. And I know it will be a pain to have to come back for my regular Dr. visits.

If I had had a rifle I would have used it but we chased them off my land with a metal baseball bat anytime they came around. They went after her a couple of times at night so we were with her after that. And we don't live there anymore so now it's not a problem.

Best wishes on your newfound freedom and may it bring you all that you hope for and much peace.

First off I love all critters, but I don't necessarily trust all of them. Pits and other extremely aggressive breads I don't care to be around I've just hear too many stories. I would never tell someone they shouldn't have one but I would expect them to keep it well constrained and away from my...

I just found out I have a low thyroid problem I'm hoping the medication will balance me out and make it easier to lose some weight.

That CF-18 just looked sooo small. Im probably just so used to looking at a full sized fridge. I was thinking I'd like to stock up and boondocks quite a bit. Since it's only just me you're probably right and I can go with a much smaller unit.

Ive spent ALL day reading and trying to understand,  I only have a tentative understanding but I think you all are saying the freezer conversion isn't worth it, i just need to spend the money and get something like this...

Thank you! Lots of great information. I am sorry I don't completely understand all the technical lingo so I am going to spend the next few days studying. Thank goodness for the interwebs. Once I get a better handle I might have a question or two. Thank you folks for your insight.

I looked around and didn't find any previous threads about this, so I was wondering if any of you have heard of this or have done this? Converting a freezer to a refrigerator sounds like a great idea if you have the room for a small chest freezer. I've read several other peoples reports on this...

I agree with wagoneer, kids should take a year off and see the world after HS. I have a 16yo and a 18yo, I have encouraged my kids to do just that. Sounds like you plan to stay local and finish school, very smart! I wouldn't like it if my 16 took off across the country but as you get older start...

That might work I appreciate you brain storming. If I make it I'll try small pieces and maybe also paint on a canvas sheet. It's lighter weight and can be pinned up with tacks. If I can't make it when is the next gathering?

If it's not asking too much could you tell me a little about hosting too? I'll try not to pester you too much but if you can start me in the right direction I can usually get there.

I'm a newbie, I was wondering if I could sell my art(painting) while I'm there? I want to go, I learn/understand so much better with someone telling me in person, but it would be helpful if i could try to make some money while there. Ìf anyone is interested in some beautification on the interior...

Everyone has so many great ideas, some really insightful stuff I had not thought of. I'll be looking into or doing pretty much everything ya'll have said. Im also going to start a blog. I hear if you are good at it you can get some income going. I'm starting a blog about my plans for getting...

GotSmart when you say CoMo are you talking Columbia? I lived there 20 years ago in an area called Lake of the Woods. Or you could be talking about Tanycomo? I'd like to go to RTR but don't know if I'll have money by then. Might do an auction but not sure if I have enough stuff for it. I had a...

Oh I forgot to mention I'm in a small town Missouri, that's in the middle of the U.S about as far away from any coastline as you can get. I plan to travel mostly the west coast, and Patrick I am drawn to the PNW in particular. Portland, Oregon sounds like my kind of place, where the town motto...

Thanks everybody for such a warm welcome. Yes I think if I could just take a weekend trip it would help immensely. I didn't expect anyone to be interested in my art. I need to do one of those pictures sharing things to show people my portfolio. But till then if you want to see what I'm currently...

Hi ya'll! Ive been lurking this site for months maybe more than a year. I'm a middle aged woman with 2 kids who are about to go off to college( hopefully ). For about 4 years I have been researching cheap alternative living. Homesteading, tiny houses, and so on. I'm done with the rat race! I...
