    What are YOU listening to??

    It's a bad recording but a beautiful song. I don't even know the singers name. ~angie Sent from my VS501 using Tapatalk

    Social Security Address to use?

    CityWoman I ended up calling the caseworker and just asked her if she needed to come visit me or did I need to send a picture or what kind of proof of residence did she require. I even offered to provide "utility proofs" in the form of a stack of propane receipts from a local propane place. She...

    Million Ways to Make Meatloaf

    My sister uses bacon bits (the kind that Hormel sells in a shelf stable little plastic jar) an egg and some oatmeal in hers. Absolutely no sauce on the top but it stays nice and juicy. The bacon meatloaf turns out awesome. My ex-MIL's go-to meatloaf had cranberry sauce on & in it. Instead of...

    Choices

    Hi Rojo and welcome to the forum. So I have a few questions for you. How tall are you? Do you have any health limitations that would make regularly being in a non-standing position a bad thing for you? Where are you planning on being - camping on public lands? - stealth camping in towns? - a...

    What are YOU listening to??

    Trampled by Turtles - Wait So Long India Arie & Pink - I am not my hair Horrorpops - Emotional Abuse Volbeat - Still Counting Volbeat - Warrior's Call and Akwafina's rap My Vag. Fair warning, it's exactly what it sounds like, a rap about a vagina. And it's hilarious...

    WELL IT CAME! KICKED OUT! NOMADING SOON...

    As Wabbit suggested above (a couple days ago), the website freecampsites.net may be very helpful to you. I hope you can find something that works for you. I know that some churches help out with access to temporary cooling centers in the hottest part of the summer. I don't know if something like...

    WELL IT CAME! KICKED OUT! NOMADING SOON...

    Hi Dreamchaser Here's a fairly cheap idea for staying cool. Its a diy cooler idea. They did a good job of explaining various modifications and improvments. I don't know how well it would work in a vehicle, or what your access to shore power will be, though. (12min) You can even use a solar...

    No mo squitos

    Kaylee Have you tried blowing some sort of forced air into the bottom of the fan while it is in exhaust mode, to really blow them outta there? It might help to use an airpump of some kind. I'd imagine a can of that pressurized air for cleaning out electronics would maybe work too, but that'd...

    Hello! New kid here!

    Hello Drea and welcome to the forum. There are some of us out here who do year-round in the northern states and even in the wintery-er parts if Canada. Nope, you are not alone. Sometimes in the summer in northern MN it gets too meltingly hot for me, lol. ~angie Sent from my VS501 using Tapatalk

    My 2 Sons Staged an Intervention Yesterday.....

    If you think that your kids are worried about you being taken advantage of or exploited in any way, then tell them your safety plans that will help settle their minds on the issue. Maybe they picture Bob as this charismatic cult leader swindling little old ladies out of their social security...

    Brown Recluses

    I hate to be " that guy" but they really are that scary. And they are farther north than the habitat range maps indicate. I live in MN and I got bit by a brown recluse years ago. Almost lost my arm. It was a crazy life event that led to an insane case of arachnifobia. So I'm just here cheering...

    On the fence: weighing my options

    I'd agree with the advice that taking some measures to soundproof your place or your ears may leave you with a more positive opinion of your current place. Subsidized units are often built with a bare minimum of noise buffering between units, I lived in one that I could hear when my neighbor had...
