I'm just happy they're all having a good time now!

Thank you, Almost! :heart:

Another great day up here in the mountains! My 6 grumpy (wonderful) old men had me over for fresh brewed Armenian coffee, and it was fantastic! The weather was muggy again, but we had a brief thunderstorm this afternoon, and although it didn't rain this time, the clouds and the breeze, did...

"NOT!!!" is exactly right, Bob! I am so happy that I will NEVER have to live that life again. Nearly every day is an adventure, and I feel like I'm really living for the first time in my life. I'm going to work hard when I work (Amazon is going to be a rigorous 12 weeks, but I'm looking...

Now, why didn't I think of that?! :D

Today was another great day up here. A bit warm and humid, weatherwise, but I have a great group of people this weekend. Started morning rounds with the discovery that 6 old men had set up camp in the middle of the night, in a spot marked as reserved for someone else, so I had to make them...

Congratulations! That's is a good price, on a good-looking van. I agree with OffGrid about leaving the original flooring. If you're looking for something you can just sweep out, I think they still make that clear plastic "carpet protector" that everyone used in walkways and stairs when I was...

I hear there's a Winco in Visalia, that is really good. One of my camp host buddies goes up there about once a month, I think. Yes, the produce depart at FFL is fabulous! Nothing organic that I could find, but great prices on everything. I got a gigantic box of blueberries (really good ones)...

Really cute, though!

They monthly interest charge just hit, coincidentally, and it was $14, so $50-100 will definitely be taking a bite out of the principal. I'll have it paid off before the end of the year. Just gotta get to Haslet!

Yes, they did make that clear, but just in case I'm the one person who is assigned where and when she chose, I'd like to make a good choice! lol

That was very helpful, thanks so much!

We had a little lightning-strike fire start nearby, last night. This morning, helicopters and Forest Service trucks were all over the place, and were still trying to get TO the fire. The commander asked if I had room for firefighters to spend the night here tonight, and I assured him that if...

I don't know why I'm so excited, but I attended the hiring webinar for Haslet, TX today, and will receive my employment offer letter some time tomorrow!! We get to choose (subject to Amazon change) what departments and shifts we want, and I was wondering if anyone here had done this before and...

Like Marie, my biggest fear would be breaking down far from civilization with no cell phone service. Not overly concerned about large critters (it's the dang mice that are killing me!) and don't anticipate much trouble with people if I'm boondocking. I am 49, traveling with a dog, lived in the...

That's a nice, clean, patch!! Thanks for the tip.

I would love to buy Bob's van when he's ready to move out of it, but he probably has a long line of people interested in it. If the opportunity presents itself, and a deal struck that would make both of us happy, it'd be grand!

And my interest rate is only 12%, fortunately.  But, after thinking it over last night and this morning, I think those who voted for paying it off do make some valid points, regarding the interest accrual, and I should be a little more aggressive than the $50 a month I've been putting toward it...

Had to drive to the bigger town today for groceries, and man was it hot!! Probably in the mid 90s. When I was driving back "home" I could see the clouds blanketing my mountain, and was so happy! I arrived to 65 degree weather, and right about the time I had everything transferred from car to...

When I buy, and am living in, your van, I'll be boondocking every chance I get! :D
