We still are not in a house. The foundation is finally in after a failed attempt of the cement truck trying to make it up the 20% grade driveway. They had to run several hoses up the driveway with crews working together. I was...

Heading Back to Washington

Loretta @noni1959 (13035) • United States 25 Oct 23

I'm headed back to Washington tomorrow and right into the cold freeze. I would love to find a place in the states that has good weather all year long. Nothing under 30 degrees and nothing over 75. As if. I'll be boondocking...

Well, I suppose now that the camping journey is done, as that series was about our shopping for a camper that we now have a deal pending on, I thought it would be fun to start a Camping Journal. In other...

Camper Journey #4 And Final

Jim Bauer @porwest (112874) • United States 10 Sep 22

Well, that's not quite how I expected this day to go. I mentioned in an earlier post we were headed to my nephew's baseball game and then were going to go to lunch, and maybe hit Walmart in Waterloo. Nope. We wound up in St....

Camper Journey #2

Jim Bauer @porwest (112874) • United States 8 Sep 22

Gator has been busy. He has sent me a couple of ideas throughout the day. Three to be exact. Two were not what I wanted. Not the right floor plan. Not what I wanted in slide outs. This one is more my speed. Has the double slide...

Camper Journey #1

Jim Bauer @porwest (112874) • United States 7 Sep 22

I guess in a way it is sort of like a daily or periodical "what I had for dinner" post. Although, in this case it is "when am I going camping?" You will have to read some of my previous posts to get the reference on that one....

Jim Bauer @porwest (112874) • United States 6 Sep 22

If y'all have been following me, my wife and I went to look at campers over the weekend at Camping World on Saturday. Our salesman was Gator. A nice guy, helpful and informative, if not a bit more high pressure than I...

When Are You Going Camping?

Jim Bauer @porwest (112874) • United States 3 Sep 22

That was the question our salesman, Gator, asked at least a half a dozen times. Perhaps more. "When are you going camping?" Not, "When are you planning on buying a camper?" I am sure it is a question that is designed to appeal to...

I am NOT Buying an RV

Jim Bauer @porwest (112874) • United States 31 Aug 22

I am going to write these words 100 times so I get writer's cramp. I am NOT buying an RV. I have wanted one for years. And it is not that we can't afford one. It's just a question of is it practical to own one? I...

The Eagle (our camper) is home

DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 3 Mar 22

I brought our camper home from the shop today. Due to water damage, it required extensive repairs. Now, it is in the best shape it's been in since we bought it new. I am glad the shop was able to get it fixed on time for us to...

We are considering a move into a class A motorhome for a few years. We are living in a rental house right now and I would rather be paying the rent to myself. There is no use in buying a house right now though since we are only...

K and I, after two years of camping in a pop-up camper, have upgraded to what the industry calls a hybrid or expandable camper. It has a body like a camper but the beds fold out from the ends into tent-like areas similar to a...

Have You Ever Thought About Living In Your Car?

Amy @simpleliving3251120 (497) • Manahawkin, New Jersey 20 Feb 16

This may seem like a crazy thing to write about. I recently watched a few videos on Youtube about people that choose to live in their cars and vans. At first I thought it was crazy. As I started to see the car dwellers...
