    Covid climate out there in 2022?

    I’m a city nomad. 67 with asthma. I’m vaccinated and boosted and wear a kn95 mask indoors to the gym and grocery stores. I love kids but stay far away from them. I wear a cloth mask outdoors at the ready. I try my best to stay 6ft apart from others. I love masks they keep my nose warm. I used to...

    How do u live on $700/month, truly?

    Lol. Mine was even less. Under $500 after part B (medicare makes me boiling mad, don’t get me started). This month I’m truly living off my SS which has been 670 lately and some online sales as a reseller. It’s been scary! Gratitude and prayer always help. I have had no debt for decades, but at...

    Best cities for urban car-camping?

    Try giving it 5 stars if it will let you. I'm trying to figure out how to create a signature. Do you know how? I read your bio. I grew up a short walk to the ocean. I hope you had some lakes and rivers in your landlocked states.

    Thanks Lerca! I am leaving Colorado in a week. I can't even find my homemade black curtains I had packed in my closet for 5 years! The top priority things you need when on the road are totally different than in a house. I have so much stuff I accumulated! Biggest priority is a daily shower! 24...

    Fire Dangers in the West - dead end roads

    I drove through Phoenix and Talent from Ashland on my way to work in 2008. I still have two friends up there. I was considering moving back a few weeks ago. I love the no sales tax in Oregon and the low cost of registering your car! Prayers to everyone in fire danger in Oregon and California. Is...

    Any SUV dwellers?

    SUV here! Toyota. A few years ago I did two separate six month stints in a Honda Element. I prefer sleeping in the front seat with a bit of cut to size tempurpedic mattress topper. The element has a lot of stealthy storage. My current Toyota SUV is full of seats! I will consider taking out the...

    Thank you! Great. That link has been updated to Sept 14th and says the same thing. Also, almost all the counties in California say covid is widespread. All the counties I want to go to. Both my grown kids live in CA and didn't tell me they are still "officially" in lockdown or shelter in place...

    Thanks, I saw that video, good one. I am only going stealth because I think I will be right in an expensive city and I don't want any tickets. I have only parked at Walmarts in the past. Never have parked on side streets, etc. except in emergencies. I have a dog and I prefer sleeping on the...

    Sbar Vta areas? Are any of the Walmarts still ok? I am purging belongings to have a stealth suv, no cargo on top, no trailer. Have you used any of those city provided safe parking lots with the long waiting lists? I know they have tons of rules and I am opposed to them wanting to get us back to...

    Make sure you go to the most beautiful town of Estes Park, just up the road 30 minutes or so from Ft Collins. If you are in a car/van and park overnight, look for dead end street near condos. There was a good spot SW of the McDonalds on the west side of the street. Don't stay in the Stanley...

    Best cities for urban car-camping?

    This helps me, thank you! I will check out Santa Cruz and maybe Palo Alto. I'm most interested in Santa Barbara and Ventura which both outlaw sleeping in your vehicle (seems against the constitution to me).
