Both times they were just checking to make sure I was OK. Today, the first thing the sheriff's deputy said was, "Boy am I glad to see you!" Someone had called in that there was a dead body in the car. He took my phone number so, next time, they can just call to make sure I'm not dead out here...

This is a gizmo that is designed to trickle charge your starter battery, but it's powered by a 12 - 36 volt solar panel rather than plugging into a 120 volt outlet. It is basically a PWM solar charge controller, but designed to trickle charge your starter battery instead of charge a deep-cycle...

Here is an article titled, I'm a Park Ranger and I'm Worried About the Future of National Parks. https://www.cntraveler.com/story/im-a-park-ranger-and-im-worried-about-the-future-of-national-parks

I haven't washed my hair at all for a couple of months now. At first is seems as if it will just keep getting more and more greasy. But it doesn't. Eventually, it levels off and ends up being a little greasy but not that anybody would really notice. Now it is softer and more healthy than it has...

I've been thinking about donating my minivan to HOWA in the case of my death. The HOWA website has very little information about this. Just a paragraph stating that some states allow one to simply write a letter. So, I figured I would start this thread so people could pool the information they...

They tell me I can use that address as my official Arizona residential address. That I can have it on my driver's license and everything. The local Post Office tells me that the one problem with using "a mailbox service" is that I can't use a change of address card. However, they couldn't /...

It tried to stow away for a free ride. But I just evicted it. I'm hoping that's all of it.  P.S. No, I don't have a massive infection. Yes, I know how to tell when I'm getting an infection (beyond a little pus coming out of a wound). No, I don't need to see a doctor..... yet. (And I probably...

If you don't, all that hot, expanded air in the bottom part will explode up when you flush, splattering "stuff" everywhere. This is the second time in two years I have had to spend over half an hour cleaning, ahem, crap off of all over my porta-potty. At least I always close the lid before...

Do not get out of your van and try to set up your privacy tent so you don't have to go poop out in the rain again.  Of course this follows directly after: Do not decide that you like to use the toilet right out in the open, without the benefit of your privacy tent, and thus neglect to set up...

You don't go down easy like in the movies. You just drop like a sack of potatoes. When you pass out into a mesquite bush, it's like being dropped into a pile of sharp sticks. I now have deep scratches all up the left side of my back, my neck, and face. I woke up yesterday with diarrhea and...

Yes, the clothing-optional area in the Laposa South LTVA. Please keep your jokes to yourself. They get tiresome after a while. I will be in a converted minivan. I know the rules say I have to park within 500 feet of a vault toilet. Are there vault toilets within the Magic Circle "protected"...

I found this battery outside one of my campgrounds in it's plastic packaging. It looks almost new and it was fully charged when I found it. Rather than just throw it away, I figured I would see if any of y'all want it. Just PM me your address, and I will mail it to you. Yes, I have checked...

This thread is merely for people to list places they have found where no one is gonna freak out if they see you naked. PLEASE: Do not used this thread to discuss the merits of nudity or your opinions thereof. We do not need you to remind us that we shouldn't go wandering around naked where...

It's the Tow Smart trailer coupler lock, that you can get at Home Depot. You can just slide a shim down the side and open it right up. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk

I have a Tractor Supply truck box that I have bolted down onto a Harbor Freight hitch-mount rack (for 2" receiver), that I am ready to get rid of. You can see a complete description and lots of pictures of this combo in my build thread, starting here. Here is a picture of how it looks now: You...

Twice now, I have ordered through Amazon with a delivery address of General Delivery at a U.S. Post Office. I had double-checked with the Post Office that they will accept General Delivery packages shipped via UPS if necessary. I did a lot of online research to figure out how to specify my...

I just happened across this little sequence on the Red Green Show where Red converts a car to live in. It contains some truly valuable advice in the first few seconds of the sequence.

I think it might be a good idea to have a separate thread for information about finding and getting into each of the different sites. Plus any information about nearby amenities.  First, I want to double check the location of the turnoff from Highway-62. Is it at this...

Hello everyone.  Because I decided not to finish building my trailer, I felt that my "CaravanCaravan" user name did not apply because it was meant to indicate a Dodge Caravan pulling a caravan (trailer). Anyhow, Love Care Think Do has kind of become my personal motto (and will likely become...

Yup, this is a silly, silly question. Nevertheless.... I add about two cans of tuna to a can of soup for a quick, easy meal almost every day. Every day, that is one dirty soup can and two dirty tuna cans to deal with. At "home" I rinse them out thoroughly and just put them in the trash (no...
