That was absolutely fantastic, thank you for sharing your thoughts and insights. You may not be interested, but this certainly seems like great material for a book. I'm really impressed and there's a lot to unpack and think about there! Wonderful!!

Some of those are really awesome - but not very practical for most of us "poor" folks! It might be funny trying to fly a sign or jug for gas with one of those sitting behind me. :p Good thing I'm happy enough in my old converted van (currently a 1989 GMC Vandura, previously a Chevy G20...

I've often wondered when taking the MegaBus j ust watching people pull out luggage from underneath, it certainly looks like people can take out whatever they want, since I've never seen a driver or anyone checking tags or making sure the bags belong to whomever is retrieving them. :( I hope you...

I've heard some bad about the slab but also some good as well. The STP gathering will be there, in mid to late October. What commune are you thinking, if you don't mind sharing? Black Bear? Alpha Farm? or...? I thought my first post was lost when I went to a different page, hence the...

Welcome to STP! :) I hope you have a wonderful and safe journey. My daughter and her fiance' live in MKE and just got back from the Rainbow Gathering. Send me a PM telling me about yourself and if you'd like me to pass on your info to see if y'all might enjoy being friends.

Hello, Troubadour! That sounds like a great adventure. :) I personally also hope to visit the Slab sometime soon, but probably closer to the time of the STP gathering. From my research, it looks like if a person is friendly yet cautious, one should be just fine (just like visiting anyplace...

So this guy (unsure if a van dweller or just owns a van) is eating at a restaurant in New Jersey, when he notices someone rummaging around inside of the hatch of his van. Turns out it was a plainclothes policeman who was searching the vehicle without a warrant! :mad: Here is a link to the...

not a complete list but to add to the conversation: http://publicshower.directory/ You could also consider a dip in a swimming hole or hot spring! http://www.swimmingholes.org/

That sux!! I hope you get something better. :)

Welcome to STP - I agree, you will find a lot of info here - I am a part time vandweller and hope to get out there again soon. :)

Welcome! You'll find a lot of info and kindred souls here. Oh and

At least you didn't get shot and killed! Take care of yourself while you're getting things straightened out. IMHO moral of the story should be, don't go drinking at your new job. :/

On the website Reddit, a fellow vandweller recounts a tale of potential disaster - well worth the read for safety. Warning, some graphic language. What NOT To Do: A Warning About Foil Insulation (for Dummies) by thegummi Synopsis: Foil insulation like Reflectrix, EZ-Cool etc is -- duh--...

If I get to attend, I would be glad to volunteer to help cook and would bring food to share. :)

Wow, that's an awesome story!! Glad you're ok, thank you for sharing your adventure with us. :)

That's a heck of a story. Sorry you went through this! Now, it's just my opinion, but what I really think is you should let it go. <3 Sounds like you must be in a better place now, so just keep moving forward, leave the pain and hurt behind. Hopefully, they have also grown and changed as well...

So as has become "business as usual," LEO have been very active at this year's Rainbow Gathering, looking to arrest some folks for possession of marijuana and other drugs and drug paraphernalia. An article online at CannibisNow indicates that this year's Burning Man festival will have similar...

Shoot, I wasn't trying to win. :p Just glad I have something to talk about in the competition. :) I'm sure there are some more great and epic stories out there?

Awww - pretty much, though, like probably over 90% of pregnancies, they were both "surprises" so - but no regrets. :)

While surprisingly I've never been nearly shot nor participated in an MMA fight, I did manage to shove out on two separate occasions an approximately 13" round, 20" long, eight-pound baby through something which usually has an opening diameter of 1"! And even more hard-core, I raised them. ;)

Hello everyone! Sometime lurker, recently decided to make a few posts. I'm a 55-year-old woman with a conversion van, and really enjoy traveling the country whenever I get the chance. I posted in the "road dawg" section hoping to find a fellow adventurer to spend time with. I appreciate all of...
