Welcome to the CRVL forums DBackfan60!  When will your tour start? Are you planning on joining us for the RTR in Quartzsite in January?

My tour started yesterday at the Cracker Barrel in Flagstaff.  I slept like a baby in my comfy SUV right in their parking lot...after chicken n dumplings, of course. This morning I got a campsite, new tent, blow up COUCH hahaha, and all the necessities for camping.  I am so happy!! I went to Best Buy and they showed me how to use my phone as a hotspot and I'm actually using my laptop!! ...in a campground that doesn't have wifi. I'm from Havasu, so I'll probably go to Quartzsite in January and meet everyone.  I haven't been this happy in years...all by myself in a tent!! Oh, my tent...I got a big one at Walmart that sleeps 10 for $117 and I love it.  I took some pictures. Can we post pictures on here?  It's so nice to be able to connect with like-minded people out here in the wilderness. I have a question, bear spray, a shotgun, or a handgun?  Any thoughts for safety?
