Here at my place in the north CO mountains there is a winter weather advisory tonight for 4-8" of snow at 7500 feet and above! Yep the desert is calling my...

    Woodstove in a van?!?!

    Yes the cubic mini woodstoves are very efficient and produce very little smoke due to a secondary burn system. The only time you see smoke and only for a minute or two is when you add fresh wood to it or are first lighting it. BTW the stove is spoken for...   texas2sturgis: True story, when I...

    Woodstove in a van?!?!

    Yes I have a grizzly model and think they are awesome (though I have never used it) if you have the room and place to put one. Clearance to combustibles or suitable protection with proper air gap is a must in figuring out installation.  They are expensive lil things too but much cheaper than...

    Leaving Colorado for Riffe Lake, Washington this Sunday, 6 Aug

    Ms Linda, Ah an adventurous soul that's great news to hear and I so envy you! I'm sure if you keep your nose into the wind and with a few pm's and or emails i'm sure those who are there will find a way to "not" find one another. Best of luck!

    You Ain't Right Club

    Only a couple of here I recognize by given user name anyway so most od the gossip revolves around the people in the group who hang there. But there are also quite a few trolls who seem to run the show in collaboration with key players for yes YT is a stage and everyone is drawn to the drama...

    You Ain't Right Club

    Yes more than done and have been for awhile now i'm ready for a real adventure this winter!

    You Ain't Right Club

    I ain't right because I spent the last two years in the bottom of YouTube hangouts where everyone just talks and dreams of being a nomad, traveling like all of the people & channels they watch & gossip about. Being not right in the head is a prerequisite for hanging out there!   Damn now I...

    Solar Eclipse

    If you wanted to view the eclipse and are in a place to do so have you heard of or ever thought about using a pinhole box to watch it? I remember as a kid in Jr. High I think it was our sience teacher had us all make a pinhole box out of a shoebox. It works amazingly well and is easy to...

    Hi From Colorado

    Thanks for all of the kind replies and it is a Coachmen Leprechaun 220qb I think is the number on it. And clouds, rainbows, white rabbits, pills, Allice and wonderland are all giving me flashbacks of my misguided youth this early in the morning before my coffee! :P

    Complete booster set up for under $200

    Might not be a bad idea, I remember seeing a new channel on YT doing a mini series on an antenna conversion like that, have to see if I can find it. Being able to tune it from inside would be nice but getting it higher in the air would be my preferance.

    Unlimited AT&T $20 a month

    Has anyone noticed any difference in your speed when streaming videos since the new "stream saver" option came out? I have not had mine long enough to gauge any difference and also turned it off but was curious if anyone else had.  For those not in the know about a month ago AT&T came out with...
