    **** Lifestyle

    Sharing this with a heartfelt desire that the Ketogenic diet will benefit others as it has me.  Seventeen years ago I was diagnosed with an incurable autoimmune disease.  Two years ago, blood work showed my A1C was 6.9.  Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.  I stubbornly refused to be diabetic.  That...

    I bought one several months ago from Amazon for about $50.  It's a "Ketone Meter."

    OMG!! Where is it Actually COOL?

    Laughed out loud about avoiding West Texas.  Good luck with that.  I feel the same way about western Oklahoma.  With three little four-legged traveling companions of my own, wanted to give you a couple of tips if you're in the vicinity.  If you go up through the Texas Panhandle into Clayton, NM...

    Van Qualities For All Season Living

    Couple of years ago I bought a 15 passenger Chevy Express van.  Drove to a junk yard and gave them the three back seats, keeping the bench seat behind the driver's seat.  Did nothing else to it--meaning it's stock with the carpet and factory molding.  Cut reflectix to fit all those lovely...

    RTR and selling a rig -- need info

    Victoria, you will have no problem selling the camper.  I had mine parked in front of my house for a while and lost count of the number of people that stopped and asked to buy her.  There were so many inquiries that I began answering the door by saying, "It's not for sale."  I moved her out back...

    RTR and selling a rig -- need info

    Welcome Victoria-nola.  I'm sorry about the loss of your mother.  I can't help you with info about selling the camper at Quartzite, but I can suggest you list it in the classified section of "fiberglassrv.com".  I found my Hunter Compact II on that site and I gladly drove several hours to get...

    Volcano Grill

    No one has mentioned the lid (Volcano 30-700 Lid) which is made from a heat resistant material that folds down flat and fits inside the Volcano carry case.  To me the lid is essential whether you're grilling or using the dutch oven.  It holds the heat in, speeds up the cooking process, and...

    leaving maine...finally!!!

    BonnieE350van, not all COE parks on Texoma are like the one you just left.  Through the winter months, Caney Creek does not have a 14 day stay limit.  You can stay for $6/day with electricity until March.  Yes, the water is turned off except for one spigot and the flush toilets w/showers are...

    Solo traveller while hubby and the kid stay home. LOTS of questions!

    Do it. As a seventy year old solo traveler with mobility issues, I can assure you that you will never be younger or possibly healthier than you are now.  Take it slow and easy.  Be gentle and patient with yourself.  This will be more than an adventure.  It will be a learning experience.  With...

    ANTS!!!

    Gain dishwashing liquid.  Don't know if all scents work, but lavender does.  Feeding stray cats is an invitation for ant invasions at my house.  I draw a barrier around the feeder with the dishwashing liquid. Mix it with water in a spray bottle and spray the area as well.  If you can stand the...

    Is this 4x4 diesel Chevy worth the price?

    Seattle Sue, I would like to offer an alternative search arena for your van.  I too searched Craigslist, Cars.com, Cargurus, etc. for a van.  I recently checked my local Chevy dealership's website.  There she was.  A15 passenger van that had been traded by a local church.  The next morning, that...

    a non electric slow cooker

    I apologize for the delay AD64; I just saw this.  Here's the Amazon link.  Okay, I'm having trouble doing a link.  On the Amazon website, search for Tayama Thermal Cooker.  I should warn you.  I bought mine two months ago.  It was $39.99.  It's now $64.   What's up with that?

    Dwelling in a teardrop

    I didn't build my teardrop, but it is home built.  The builder used sheets of aluminum.  He said it's aircraft aluminum.  As a gauge, he said it was .068. That might not be right.  I've owned it for five years and this is from memory.  Have no idea where he bought it.  Here's a bit of...

    Trailer Oh Trailer, Where For Art Thou?

    Too funny, Rob.  This just goes to show you don't know me because I'm for sure "ain't right" and about that I ain't wrong.  :D

    Trailer Oh Trailer, Where For Art Thou?

    I think this whole thread is my fault.  Rob, I apologize for not giving you enough information.  The other day when I stopped by the shop to check on your trailer, the way Bobby talked there are only two RVs ahead of yours.  I could be wrong (if so, I'll never admit it), but he pointed out two...

    RV Park Parking costs

    Dennis, can you help No Prob Rob on this one?  There's a RV park on Hwy 75 north of McKinney.  I think it's in the vicinity of the Hwy 121 exit. That would be Melissa right?

    Too cute!  Thanks for starting my day off with giggles.  Love those little girls.  I also love the Midnight Serenade video.  What magic.

    RV Park Parking costs

    That is a shame.  I was hoping they had improved it. The only problem with the COE parks is a 14 day stay limit and they charge $30/day on Lavon.  I remember seeing RVs parked at that old trailer park on Central Expressway, somewhere between Legacy and Parker. Is it still there?  It's probably...
