I don’t necessarily promote dodge, just wanted to share the scenery. Also like the message that women can take the lead in...

anyone using a Honda Pilot as their tow vehicle? would you share your pros/cons? i am looking at the AWD not 2WD; towing capacity stated as 5000, more than enough for my plans (yes, taking into account vehicle load as well). what about service for hondas in the southwest? sparce? plentiful...

i check in the forums every morning while having coffee, to see what's been happening, who thought of what and generally just to get news & chitchat form a different POV than mine. with the "no politics" rider in place, how about sharing one "good news" thing that happened to you in the past few...

i am a little over a year out still, planning & saving for a 6-8 month journey each year with a home base. i have also read many posts here about buying a plot of land and parking rv as part time home base. i know there are various state and local regs to research as well.  my question: is...

i do lots of different crafts, everything form sewing to painting, with sculpture and jewelry work thrown in. still in a sticks&bricks but on track for my retirement. i don't want to give up my creative outlet(s) so have been exploring crafts that take up a smaller footprint, storage-wise, and...

i do not have a van or camper or trailer yet to build out. so here is this morning's blueberry pie build. circa 1954, Betty Crocker ( my grandma's cookbook that came to me) cost of materials ~$5, local source berries, hand picked no cheating, crust from scratch

this topic comes up here from time to time but is weighing heavily on me right now. my plan is made and i have been actively working on making it happen for over a year. goal is to be full-time by early 2020. now i know there is lots of stuff out on the web, good info, bad info, just plain...

had time on my hands this afternoon so mocked up what i would want in a v-nose utility trailer. did not print background grid, but is to scale. just not thrilled with compost toilet under bed. working on another layout with bed in front but not thrilled with it yet.  this may change my mind...

I almost slept in the car this past weekend while camping at the ocean on the Massachusetts coast. Had it all set-up in case I need to evacuate tent in middle of night. Torrential rains, high winds and mixed-in thunder storms. But tent held up amazingly! As did new canopy. Nary a leak anywhere...

Pardon if this has been posted before. I stumbled across this and thought it might be of service to others on this list. I am from the east coast so not likely to explore further. Quick review seems like they bundle other services too, but also was shocked that they charge ~150 bucks for the...

If you are in the northeast in summer and love to camp with your dogs you should definitely try out Salisbury State Park. Its my fav NE campground. On the ocean! Reserve through reserve america, 6 month lead, so August has just opened up for reservations. Super for dogs! My latest blog post has...

No political agenda here, just sharing the link to the alt national parks site that went live yesterday! https://altnps.org/
