For those of you who don’t know Abnorm personally he just happens to be a saint. He’s always helping people with their builds and pretty much has his own van build year round. He also has a Mary Poppins bag and no matter how obscure the tool or item is Doug reaches down into that bag all the way...

There are groups that you can join to help keep our areas open. They clean up public lands.

There is a route through but there are some steep hills and rocky places. I don’t think you want to do it on your bike but I don’t know what kind of rider you are. The other way is much faster.

Abnorm are you going to the van build in Pahrump sponsored by HOWA? I can’t recall when it is but if you are going I have some things that need to go to Tina the bread lady.

I know that ramen is a total no no for most but I have a friend that does something interesting with it. He buys those frozen packages of cut mixed veges and dehydrates them. He packages the dried veges up then uses them in Ramen or other soups. I think that when I have electricity this summer...

That’s kinda what the HOWA Caravans are already doing.

The turkey is a native species. Not considered invasive.

Thanks for the great photos and great to meet you!!!

There is a guy giving paraglider rides for $40. All goes back to Putts (his shindig) to help with the costs of materials and parts for those who can’t afford it. Starry nights has taken some awesome pics. I’ll twist his arm and make him post them. We parked a bit away from the crowd so we can...

Ah hell Ken. I have nomads stopping in from time to time and it’s not a problem. I have a nice camping spot by my pond if you aren’t bothered by the graveyard back there and it hasn’t been raining a lot. We should be back in April I think. Then starts the mowing season for me.

Looks like you did a great job of it!!! Bet that hurt too! Hope you are able to get outta there soon.

Don’t underestimate your comfort level. You’ll find that most of us switch vehicles several times before we feel we got it right.

Books can get ruined by mold and bugs in storage unless climate controlled. Get a library card and your books will be free to read. When I’m driving I like to listen to audio books and I get them free from the library online. They really eat up my driving time and make a long drive so much easier.

Kids! Pfffftttt. What do they know 😀

By Spring most of us will be heading for cooler climes. I’m sure the HOWA Caravans will still be going however. I’ve never been a member of one but have visited several and everyone seems pretty darned happy. They are a great way to get started. Like all the gatherings people roll in to camp...

That looks great. What’s wrong with the plate?

Oh nice rig! Good for him I bet he’s enjoying it. I saw a fabulous one last here here in Q.

We are at the High Desert Ranger Memorial Camp and tonight in camp was pot luck. There was enough food out there for an Army! Abnorm was at the grill and cooked his famous chicken. - about 30 chicken thighs and fifteen drumsticks. Bet there are a lot left! I made two types of potato salad -...

I can attest to the wonderful deliciousness of sourdough boule that Ravella makes. Heavenly!

K Ken you’d be surprised at how many old farts are out here living the life. You do have me by some years but I’ve met many, many as old as you are. Most of them are women out here having fun and being very happy. I met a man the other day who is 85 living in a Vardo and happy as a clam. I...
