Hey there. I think if you try the 2 new links after my signature you will find what you are looking for. Good luck Nicole

Ok, first lets all agree to be nice to one an other. All posts, if any, must be kind because, after all, we all like each other here right! :heart: I've been wanting to point something out for a while now but didn't want to kick the hornet's nest or get my head chewed up. However, I can't help...

I just finish paying my "Unlimited call to US and Canada for 12 month" to Skype and I was wondering if others were taking advantage of this very inexpensive - $26.00/year VOIP (voice over internet protocol) service. I've been using this instead of a landline for at least 8 years if not 10. It...

What is it that you use in your van that brings a smile every now and than?

Hey ladies, I'm almost intimidated posting on this sections. I admire all of you so much. I admire strong ladies. I need to talk and get some advices and I think you're the group I trust most. So here I go. My husband and I have been together since 1989. We had known each other for years prior...

Every time I ask Verizon where do old smartphones go I get some mumbled answers that don't make any sense to me. So I went online and bought what was supposed to be one but what I got instead was a new Chinese piece of nothing good, poor quality phone, everyone I called complained about an...

My intentions were certainly not to stir the pot. I'm sorry the thread turned out like it did. I learned a valuable lesson. -Nicole

Hi everyone, What's the best way for me to say what I think and not offend anyone.....I don't know so I'll just say it. Van dwellers often complain about "NAYSAYERS" so this is why I'm so surprise to see that many of us don't seem to realize that they too are naysayers, big time. A few weeks...

I'm miles away from having a strong knowledge of electricity but thanks to all of you it has improved a LOT from reading posts on this forum. We are not intending to install a house battery for quite a while. We just finishd installing a Fan-tastic vent which needs 12v to operate. For our next...

Hey Wayne aren't you retired yet? Last I've heard it was in 2 weeks, that was 2 weeks ago. Come on let us know we want to celebrate with you Sir! -Nicole

I've been looking for a smaller A/C unit. The 5000BTU are too heavy for me. We would like a unit that we can install temporarily on the passenger window for when we have access to shore power and leave it home when we don't. John can deal with the weight of a 5000BTU but I take solo trip and I...

Hello everyone, Are you one of the lucky one that can sleep next to a busy train track and wake up refreshed? If so please appreciate it, don't take it for granted you lucky bugger. I'm no, I've always been a "picky" sleeper. As I'm getting older I can't function as well when I only have 4 or...

I used to participate a bit in the old forum but I never re-registered in this one. I've done a fair amount of lurking but that was about it. I decided that today was as good a day as any to start participating again. My husband and I are part-timing in our 2003 Ford E-150 conversion van for...

I'll admit I feel very silly asking this question....... Our map is giving us a general idea where the BLMs are but it's difficult to see where it starts and ends. Is there any markers like the Nat'l Forests? Thanks in advance. Nicole

Hello everyone, Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Sox and I went for our second trial trip with the van. It went well, our 'to do list' is quite short now. We're leaving for a 3 week trip to the Southwest shortly. We found a very good TA truck stop and came to the conclusion that we much...

Hello everyone.<br><br>I installed a solar spot light in the van. The solar panel is separated from the light. I'd like to leave the plugged panel&nbsp;on the dashboard&nbsp;permanently. <br><br><img class="bbc_img" style="left: 78px; top: 16px; width: 640px; height: 480px...
