Pedialite... always have some around just cause it works. I like the popsicle ones. 2-3 of those will fix ya right up.
I swear my husband saved my life once by spooning Pedialite slush into my mouth. I was that ill with the flu several years back, in spite of my annual flu shot. Once you are really dehydrated, it's very hard to keep fluids down, but it's absolutely imperative!
Very interesting, thanks for posting this.
Climate change or not food prices have always gone up every year. I have been the grocery shopper in the family for over 50 years so have lots of evidence of that!
A love of gardening and growing veggies is something I'm going to have difficulty reconciling if I ever make the move to full-time nomad.
That's an issue that concerns our household, too. I can enjoy the "fruits" of others' efforts, but my husband really thrives on nurturing plants (inside and out). I enjoy his enjoyment tremendously, and have been looking for ways to reconcile that with full-time nomadic life. I suspect there are lots of opportunities to volunteer on the road (and we have engaged in a bit or gorilla landscaping), but it's something to consider lifestyle-wise.
Leaving my garden was WAAAAAY harder than anything else. For now, I carry a tote with a few houseplants in it. It does help, especially when the 'Cleopatra' begonia starts to flower as it is now.
I saw one of those eons ago! The part that really caught my attention was the cover. I was a couple of cars away, but it looked like he/she had formed an arc made of welded wire mesh (maybe 2x4"), covered that with clear sheet plastic, and then covered the plastic with another arc of the welded wire mesh. I seem to remember what might have been a plywood sidewalls about twice the height of the truck bed sides. I could see the tops of plants. I thought the plants were in pots, but your idea of growing the plants right in the bed itself made me wonder if what they were doing was what you just described. Wonderful idea!
