    Anyone see this ?

    I just spent an hour jumping through a bunch of related sites.&nbsp; I didn't even know those were out there... new sites to a net-surfin' addict are very bad!<br><br>Thanks for sharing....&nbsp; they sure put a lot of work into their storage systems.<br><br>Bodhi

    Hi, I'm Noah

    Hello Noah!<br><br>I love the micro-trailers... for the very reason your RV guy said.&nbsp; If towing a huge thing costs more in money and anxiety, the price is too high.&nbsp; I want to feel freedom and see lots of places not be stuck in an RV park tied to a smaller house on wheels but still...

    Cheap living in RV parks

    <p>We love "Thousand Trails Campgrounds" where you can buy a ZONE PASS for $299/yr... stay free 30 nights and $3 for every night after that (I think that comes to about $1300/yr)&nbsp; The catch is that you have to move every 7 days (? I forget the specifics right now... so that may be off a...
