    Thank you for your information. I hadn't realized that some RVers choose to stay in Q over the summer. The temperature gets pretty hot but I guess you get use to it.

    How do u live on $700/month, truly?

    Hi WB8YVN, Quartzsite LTVA is an excellent no stress place to winter. Many snow birds go there and stay the winter. You can buy the Long Term pass for $180 that covers your total cost for 7 months (Sept 15 the Apri 15). There is water, a dump station, and trash bins., So for long term stays the...

    RvNaut

    Hi RvNaut, You mentioned the starter on your Onan generator went out, I was wondering how many hours you had on your generator when it broke. I have a similar generator on my RV (1997 Minnie Winnie - 22') and wondering how long I might expect mine to work. Currently it has around 250 hours on...

    Hi WB8VYN, Been a fan of yours for awhile. For a nice place to tryout go to the LTVA area in Quartzsite, AZ. Great place to winter. Also there is another LTVA down the road 60 miles near Yuma. You can stay at both and the cost is only $180 for seven months (until April 15). There is a dump...

    When Vans Get Stolen

    I think it is important to have comprehensive insurance on your RV/van/camper. It doesn't cost much for the insurance as compared to collision and liability. I recently had my catalytic converter stolen from my RV. Repair cost was around $2500. Had $250 deductible so it wasn't too painful. Also...

    Agree about the morse code requirement going away. I have often thought if the FCC brought back the old Novice license along with the code requirement it would ignite a spark in some of the younger generation. Too many of us old guys now and not many young people. Got my license in 1962...

    Is my vehicle smog-free enough for California?

    A new California compliant catalytic converter for a e350 RV here is now over $1300.

    Are We Crazy?

    You might consider staying more out west. I have found the Quartsite/Yuma AZ LTVA areas are ideal for long term camping. The LTVA at Yuma has a lake which I am pretty sure you can put your jet ski on for recreation (please if anyone knows differently correct me if I am mistaken about the jet ski...

    What's your favorite zombie movie/show?

    I liked Zombieland as well. The Ghost Busters parts were the best I thought.

    Does anyone currently at the LTVA know if the services (dump, trash,water) are still available. Last year they turned things off on the 16th. Thanks

    Bus broke down, now covid+

    Hello Katt, I was wondering how do you feel now. I sure hope the covid isn't serious for you. The symptoms people experience are all over the map.

    What are you reading?

    Charles Dickens novels are wonderful reads. David Copperfield was the first one I read. After that I read just about all of them. The Old Curriosity Shop I thought was the meaningful.

    Just thinking at the moment.

    Don’t know if there are any BLM land areas in Louisiana but if there are any spots I would think it would be near perfect.

    The selfies I bet are neat. Hopefully tomorrow’s forecast doesn’t include this much wind. Looking forward to the warm up in a couple days.

    Camping at Quartzite

    I plan on visiting La Posa South LtVA in early March. I was wondering how crowded the South section of La Posa is. I was there last year in late March and Early April and it seemed to be about 25% occupied. Thanks in advance.
