    Updated roads in quartzsite

    They scraped off the blacktop in La Posa South and used fine road gravel. It’s nice and smooth and wide for people to speed on, and plenty dusty. I don’t think there will be any asphalt, at least not this season. Word is that the Tyson Wash water (and maybe dump station?) will happen after...

    Pirate Camp Winter Season 2022-23

    Hi! I’ve been very busy lately and forgot there was such a thing as Internet forums. My little home is no longer my home, it’s my bakery. My CLAM is now m home, complete with chandelier, bed, table, two chairs, nightstand, etc. I’d like to meet the folks I’ve talked to here on the forum that are...

    Where Do Van lifers Get There Paper Mail Delivered To?

    Another with Escapees RV club. The bonus is that escapees will provide you with a legit domicile address, too. Can’t use a PO Box as your domicile address.

    OMG…I bought a Van

    OP, Jacque has posted this same advise a gazillion times— and it’s the BEST advice for those new to this way of camping/living. It’s easy to get carried away thinking you need to have everything that others have put into their build. I think most of us have spent on and later shed plenty of...

    building a healthy meal plan

    I aimed for the Mediterranean diet, but then kinda fell in love with Michael Pollan’s books and “Cooked” 4 part documentary. In fact, that was the catalyst for my sourdough baking. His food rules that I follow are “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.” So I do that and don’t make anything...

    I suspect you’re a scrabble player, TA. Come to Q and play me. K? You don’t have to stay the whole season.

    You going to be the breakfast cook? I’ll even slice the bread and supply the butter 😁 Note to Ben: bring LOTS of that syrup, ya? French toast on the menu for whatever day of the week becomes my Sunday. Dibs.

    Great! I haven’t found anybody willing to play since we last played. Looking forward to it 😃

    Well Ben, I got interested in bringing Twister for a sec, but then I remembered that I have to get a JORB (google homestar runner + jorb) and if my jorb in Q is anything like my jorb here in Laughlin, I won’t have much energy left for twister. What a shame!

    Well, Ben, we almost met 2 years ago in Q, but you left too quick and never came back. So get there. Sit. Stay 😏

    It’s catchy, yes? And fits me well at this point. My last theme song was Dog Days Are Over by Florence and the Machine. I’ve built quite the danceable happy song playlist.

    Adventure? Yes please! I’ve been avoiding the forum while having to sit still for months and months to take care of personal business. That being done, and me having a regular old fashioned job and new debts, I’d planned to keep working in Laughlin until spring. However! The universe has...

    Aloha nomads and friends. I’ve not been reading for a while, because I’m sitting still in an RV park in southern Nevada (113 degrees today) and being a wage slave until further developments in my life story. I work outside— y’all wouldn’t believe my tan 😂😂 I’m fit💪 and strong 💪 and have more...

    Instant Pot Mini Duo (amazing)

    I have the three quart instant pot ultra. It cost a little more, but the flexibility is worth it to me. The ultra will let you adjust by time and temp alone. I can sous vide a perfect steak, choose my own (lower) temp for my yogurt, and higher temp and time for the boil part of making yogurt...

    What's for dinner?

    Are you LOL IRL? I am! It’s a good thing this is your thread — I don’t expect we can get into too much trouble for going off topic into the culture of Hawaii Longs here 😆 Thanks for copying that bit. I think I might have to read that book again someday.

    What's for dinner?

    Not graveyard, and not retail store, thank the FSM. Not being coy, either, but also not posting for the whole wide world to see exactly where I work, cause the whole wide world has creeps in it 🙊 I wake up at 3:30 AM like bakers do, but am not baking for dough. (See what I did there?😏) Tonight...

    What's for dinner?

    Oh— what was I doing to be so tired? I’ve rejoined the full time workforce 😶 I suppose I might get used to it, but the specific hours I work say maybe I won’t.
