B and C The caravans have clearly defined space limits.  These limits are defined withing the meetup group for each caravan. Therefore, each caravan will not exceed its limit, which to my understanding is about 15-20 people. Your argument is invalid.

A lot of really great people have given advice for small steps. You have your rig, and have even camped in a tent for a month, so you know you can do it. You are the only person who can make the decision. Stop waiting for other people to make up your mind, because they can't. No one here can...

OMG YES

Why do you think they want to limit the number of attendees to the caravans? That makes absolutely no sense.  There is no mystery or secret cabal of caravaners. If you want to join a caravan, join the meetup group, then sign up for a specific caravan. That's the alpha and beta.

I am still in sticks and bricks, and I live in an area with a lot of property crime. I have no doubt I will be safer after I get on the road in three years after my son graduates from high school. I have a german shepard, and feel completely safe. Crime, whether its personal or property, is...

Thieves go for easy targets.  Someone with a dog is not an easy target. I can't imagine a situation where someone would take the time and forethought to kill a dog, unless they knew the target had something of great value- a great deal of cash in a safe, flashy jewelry, etc.  I'm glad you feel...

Heather, that's kind of my point. I know your son seems very young to you, but look at the responsibilities you managed when you were his age!

I'm sure that's scary for you, as a mom, but your son is a young man, and young people are very resilient.  Also, as a mom, I advise you to keep your advice to a minimum. He likely won't listen, or hear, and it could possibly cause problems between you. If he asks you, that's a different story...

Hi hidesertranger. As a mod, can you not create that sub forum?

Bob has said many times in his videos that finding free land in the summer is much harder, given that it would have to be at much higher elevation. That is only reason he has not developed caravans in the summer. If you know of a great summer spot that is free, and would be willing to be the...

Please don't look at it that way. There is no "clique" of people who are in the caravans.  A huge number of people signed up for the group, and most will never decide to attend a caravan. What counts is signing up for a caravan. They just want to know who wants to go and how many people to...

Hi. I am not a part of the caravans, but I can talk about the meetup website, which I am a member of in other groups. With meetup, there are groups you can sign up for, like the caravan group, then specific events you sign up for within a group (which I am assuming is a specific caravan). Look...

You're in a spot, for sure.  The first thing that jumps out to me is when you said you "just bought a new home."  I don't know what the time line was, but I have to assume it was within the last few months. Is that right? I get that you are not happy now with the house purchase, but it isn't...

While I don't like it when my posts/threads are deleted on forums, because I am an adult, and because I am not paying for hosting/maintenance of said forum, my course of action is to..... suck it up and move on. Also, be glad this thread is still here. On some forums just mentioning a deleted...

It can be scary and exciting to plan on being a nomad. Maybe this sounds silly, but watching a lot of youtube videos helped me figure out what kind of vehicle I want. The first video I watched was of a woman living in a very nice tricked out 21' trailer pull, and I thought that was the amount...

Hi Firewoman Sorry about the spot you are in. Many people live out of their cars, so I bet you could, too! If you could buy a van, that would be better, but if you can't, you could make your car something that would work for you. I wish you luck with your hearing.

Thanks for letting me know.

Sorry about that long post. I'd like to delete it but can't figure out how.

Hi maki2 I'm very happy that you have found something that helps you. Can you please post a link to the original studies you are referencing? This is the only study I found (published by NIH), and it is in reference to carbohydrate craving in...

Why are you stuck? July in Houston would not be my dream situation, for sure.
