<p style="margin: 0px;">I just ordered this from cafe press... I wanted something cool to wear from time to time - maybe in college towns, etc.&nbsp; (NOT to church, or police conventions, anywhere in&nbsp;vanaphobic&nbsp;Seattle&nbsp;etc.)</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;"><img border="0" hspace="0" alt="" align="baseline" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1A2pACYA_bk/T8uQahk0n2I/AAAAAAAAA9c/8f-Cw_cLr6w/s400/Front+of+tshirt.jpg"></p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;"><img border="0" hspace="0" alt="" align="baseline" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3YuCagsbxLI/T8uQmnCjVvI/AAAAAAAAA9k/TOIj1LHb9hc/s400/back+of+shirt.jpg"></p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p>
 
<p style="margin: 0px;">Hay vantrekker, nice t-shirt. Ya mean to say Seattle will&nbsp;not welcome us with open arms? Suprise. I recall when some of my favorite spots were logging roads.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">Nice streams, excllent views, had the place to ones self. Oregon is not far behind as you probally know. Thinking bout heading over toward Beaver (BLM land) next week for a few days. Beautiful area that.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">Roy</p>

<div><br></div><div>Cafepress.com has been around for a while. You basically come up with the designs and they'll print them on T's, coffee mugs, hats, etc. They provide the systems where your online store resides and get a cut of whatever you sell. They only make the items when orders are placed. All the hows and whys are on their website.</div><div><br></div><div>If you guys ever are curious about stuff like this hit me up. I've been working in computers and for internet based companies for years now. If I don't know I can find out if it exists for you in short order.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>
 
<p style="margin: 0px;">Just got back from the trip.&nbsp; I know for sure that vandwelling is the way I want to go in the future.&nbsp; For now, I am blessed to have a driveway but roaming is fun!</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">The cafepress ad showed up while I was looking at something else online.&nbsp; </p><p style="margin: 0px;">They had a zillion different things to do with Star Trek so I was seduced...</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">When looking at premade shirts, I&nbsp;just clicked on the "Make your own shirt" button,&nbsp;chose the color and size, and then worked on the design.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">I used existing JPG files from the hard drive and uploaded them much the way you would for a blog posting.&nbsp; It is easy to add text boxes to the t-shirt design using their design software.&nbsp; You can change font size and font color easily, too.&nbsp;&nbsp; Once you massage everything into place, you have to option to just purchase the shirt via plastic card or through your Amazon account.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">One note... I shouldn't pick on&nbsp;Seattle.&nbsp; There is a group of people who have a blog and are trying to alert the police to suspicious behavior.&nbsp; They are most certainly well intentioned people who just want to keep things orderly.&nbsp; It's usually not the vandwellers that are the problem though...</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">I street camped in a college town last night.&nbsp; It's nice fitting in where you don't really have to fit in.&nbsp; <img border="0" align="absmiddle" src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif"></p><p style="margin: 0px;"><br>V.T.</p>
 
That wouldn't be Ames would it ? <br><br>I hear they have great places to have<span class="spell ng"></span> hydraulic sandwiches &nbsp;&nbsp; <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"> <br><br>Definition of&nbsp; hydraulic sandwich :&nbsp; Liquid refreshment with just a Liiiiitle amount of good alcohol, and a enough&nbsp; full bodied nutrition for survival... &nbsp; <img src="/images/boards/smilies/wink.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"><br><br>Putz<br><br><span class="spell ng"></span><a target="_blank" href="https://www.google.com/search?hl=en...amp;ved=0CAYQBSgA&amp;q=hydraulic&amp;spell=1" class="spell"><b><i></i></b></a><br>
 
<p style="margin: 0px;">Cedar Falls... about 1 block right off the campus.&nbsp; There are a lot of opportunities to stealth camp there and no hassles. Surprisingly, it was more fun than the previous 3 days of campground sleeping.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">Come to think of it, that's the first time I slept on that campus and wasn't bombed out of my gourd.&nbsp; I guess that's what middle age will do for ya.&nbsp; The heck with a stealth camper van - just be 46 years old.&nbsp; Then your whole body is stealth... Anything I "noticed" wouldn't return the look.&nbsp; <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"></p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">V.T.</p>
