Nice meeting ya at the RTR.  I'm still screwing around southwest AZ.  Think I'm gonna try some mystery shopping around Tucson.  Have fun back in the Stan!

Getting close myself. In Tucson now. Hope to meet ya soon!

Hate to thread necro but had to thank VanFan for cluing me in on Ace Mart.  I was passing through Austin today and bought a case of 12, 8oz butane cans for $19.80.  Can't find these at any outdoors stores I've been too.  A lady at Ace Mart said I can probably find these at Lowes...

<br /><br />No not at the Fort thats just on the west tip of Santa Rosa Island and closes at sunset. &nbsp;A good portion of the island is covered in expensive vacation homes, restaurants, hotels, and resorts. &nbsp;I'm parked across the street from one of em.&nbsp;<img...

Met another vagabonding nomad today! &nbsp;This morning I was driving to Fort Pickens State Park and pulled over at one of the beach parking lots and there was a guy there standing next to his truck with camper in the bed. &nbsp;We talked for awhile, his name was Jim, and said he used to travel...

<br /><br />I may do that! &nbsp;I know I'm heading to Corpus Christi for sure to check out the USS Lexington on my slow voyage west but haven't decided what route to take from there to Arizona yet.

<br /><br />Man I must have passed you! &nbsp;Actually once I leave the Pensacola area I'm heading to Mobile to check out the USS Alabama and then I'm gonna follow the coast to Corpus Christi. &nbsp;I'm sure I'll run into at some point.&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" />

My campsite on Blackwater Bay was very nice. &nbsp;I was parked just 50 feet from the water. &nbsp;Just like the review on freecampsites.net said it had 2 clean porta johns. &nbsp;I decided to stay just one night and continue on to the Gulf Coast on Santa Rosa Island. &nbsp;Biked up and down the...

<br /><br />I just left on my trip, well, today really. &nbsp;Hope to see you at the RTR!

Well the journey actually began last Wednesday. &nbsp; Now I've been living out of my conversion van for almost 2 months but that was in my home town with lots of support from job, family, and friends. &nbsp;Well I sold most of my stuff or gave it away, quit my job 2 weeks ago and left for...

One adjustment I'm trying to make is cooking my own food in the van.&nbsp; I've only been living out of it for little over a month but have been eating out too much.&nbsp; I'm such a horrible cook though.

I saw LP and thought your were talking about long play vinyl records <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absMiddle" border="0" />

What about bathroom facilities? &nbsp;Are there portajohns or do we do our duty the old fashioned way by digging catholes?&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" /> &nbsp;I've been living out of my van now for over a month but I've managed to avoid...

I can get to their website just fine. &nbsp;Maybe they got it back up quick? &nbsp;

For my last night in London I decided to get out of town so I drove west about 20 miles to Bee Rock Campground in Daniel Boone National Forest. &nbsp;It's right on the banks of Rockcastle River and features huge boulders. &nbsp;Apparently its the best white water river in the state, especially...

It was officially 32 in London this morning but no frost on the car, probably a degree or 2 higher in the city. &nbsp;It was 50 in my van. &nbsp;It's a conversion so probably has some insulation in the walls. &nbsp;I also use my old poncho liner to separate the driving area from the rear and...

<br /><br />Yessir! &nbsp;That stove you gave me works great by the way and doesn't take up any space. &nbsp;I've heard butane doesn't work well below freezing but I haven't tested that yet and actually I don't plan on staying in places that get that cold anyway. &nbsp;<br /><br />A few comments...

I've been a fan of Army 100 Mph tape for a long time but it sounds like that Gorilla Tape has it beat.

Ok more pictures for Ricekilla then<br />&nbsp;<img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" alt="" align="absmiddle" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><br />Heres me parked in the fog behind where I'm working Tuesday morning:<br /><img src="http://imageshack.us/a/img694/959/imag0189e.jpg" alt=""...

I see things are cooling down out there in Pine River. &nbsp;How are you dealing with the cold at night? &nbsp;I've only recently moved into my van and the cold is something I'm going to have to start dealing with.
