Depends on the car and if you need the hood open. I've been there unfortunately.
I can see how that would be fun -- a nice eau de engine block facial lightly dusted with blowing dirt ...
Beats laying underneath on ice and getting the back of your coveralls soaked when you body heat melts the ice and holding your upper body up to keep from freezing till you get the job done only to find the wet coveralls sagged down into the puddle which has now frozen preventing you from climbing out from underneath the truck! Had to lay back down and thaw the coveralls enough I could get loose! That was almost as bad as laying my wrench on the asphalt while I was under the car in Tucson and having the wrench melt into the asphalt. As I couldn’t see where it was I felt around for it and when I grabbed it it stuck to my hand severely burning it. The joys of being a mobile mechanic! lol!!!
I'm his free time, bullfrog used to listen to James Taylor while healing from his wounds.
If you'd rather keep your daily digest, I think there's supposed to be a way to "ignore" a thread or forum so it won't show up there? Have a look here https://vanlivingforum.com/threads/the-ignore-button-now-works-on-threads-and-entire-forums.50239/ and if that doesn't work maybe ask an admin?
That will turn the digest on or off, but as far as I can tell it won't exclude the politics forum from the digest. (Can't imagine why anyone would want to do that though) (KIDDING)
It's hot, with a chance of being hot and humid.I put the ignore option on that political section shortly after it opened up.
I would rather talk about the weather
it's time to actually do something about it, yikes! Wish me luck.
Great that you are taking the leap! I actually visited DR since my nephew has a triples in non tourist area he rents out...He had a motorcycle to use for me so it was easy to get around but I found the beach at least in his areas were a good 1/2 k to 1 from the main road.. Beautiful place to visit for sure but due to being a island EVERYTHING is more expensive AND one must fly but it is gorgeoud=s add the waters are great!So I'm trying to plan a trip to the Dominican Republic. I've done things like that before, and always wanted to do it again. I didn't expect to feel this nervous about it, but I guess it has been a long time (when the #$%^& did I get so old???).
I want to get around on public transportation, which they have plenty of, but most of it is not the kind of bus lines that have websites LOL, you have to be prepared to wing it. And of course I'd rather go to "non-touristy" places (whatever that means in 2024) but the things I want to do, kayaking and snorkeling (at least, the places where it's easy to do that), are mostly in the tourist areas. Also, my gimp ankle is still gimping a bit and I have to work around that.
So I finally decided, keep it simple, don't try to do everything or get too clever with the "off the beaten path" stuff, just pick a few fun-looking things and relax. If it works out, then I'll try to pull an @frodo2222 and move there. And if I do that, then I can get more ambitious and check out all the other things eventually.
It's not as cheap as where frodo is (Nicaragua), but would still definitely stretch out the old Social Security better than I can here. I've been dreaming of doing it for years, and now that I'm done with the volunteer fiasco
Such a luxury really to be able to even think about doing something like that. Glass = definitely half full. ¡Thanks for listening!
I don't actually know the name of the town.It's about an hour and 15 minutes from the airport.I remember that, but he's not there.He lived there for a while he build the tripe legs and then he decided things were too expensive and it was too isolated , so he moved to Argentina Build a house there that he bought that meat at work and I'll travel back-and-forth to the US once every 4 to 5 months.I'll work here a few months.
