    ABQ, NM

    Please be careful if any of you are heading to or passing thru ABQ. The road rage incidents seem to be rising again. My daughter talks about it all the time. Getting out of the concert last night was a long series of near-misses and pissed off people. Concert was good though (Jimmy Buffet). Try...

    Sofa/bed Design

    I'm getting to the point to where I'm almost afraid to post something for fear it will be taken the wrong way. But here goes. Please remove it if it is going to be a problem.

    FL SP: 42 days within 6 months

    I do not remember if I posted this here but here it is, possibly again. There is often confusion over the length of time you can stay in a state park. I personally have stayed in a state park (not FL) for several months during the winter. We rotated the site under three names (we were not paying...

    I don't think I'm stealthy...

    But I spent last night on the street in the front of the house. Took 7 hours to get from Roswell to Capitan  which is the "halfway" point for the 150 mile trip between Roswell & Socorro. Bus was overheating like mad. Ended up discovering that while the plastic coolant reservoir was full, the...

    Recipe: Stovetop Skillet Cornbread

    Thought I would post my old cornbread recipe from my tent camping days. I still make it but not as often as I used to. I have found that the small glass saucepan lid in the Visions (glass cookware) sets fit my 5" skillets pretty well. Stovetop Skillet Cornbread Makes 1 (5") skillet or 2-4...

    Dropshipping

    Who Have First Aid Kits?

    How are we all set up for first aid supplies? Have you gone thru your medicines to check the expiration dates? It is so much easier to have the stuff on hand than to desperately need medication and have to go find someplace (usually late at night or on a holiday or in a strange town, late at...

    TX Residency = cheap lots

    I do not know if anyone would find this interesting but..... At one time we were looking at this area (but have since changed our minds about this specific location). Our plan (kinda still is) was to buy a lot or two adjoining ones in a place like Lake Livingston Village or Wiggins Village and...

    US 380 Denton / Dallas, TX

    I am planning a trip. I have us running US Hwy 380 (east) from Roswell to Greenville, TX. One of our nights will be spent in the Sam's Club parking lot in Denton. My question is.... which route is better.... stay on 380 or take the bypass on the north side of Denton.
