It is an experiment to see if I can do it...
Sleeping. Well except the curtains fall down after 5 seconds. Forget curtains. The car was not level. Good thing the back door was shut. I had to crawl up to the top every once in a while. Otherwise I sort of slept.
Peeing. Nope. Nope. Nope. The potty box... If I can get on it the aim is off. If I turn the box the aim is still off but my feet can go on the floor instead of by my butt... if I raise the box I can’t fit my head in the car. Out the window? Open the doors?
Pooping... Walmart is a long way off...
Shower. Forget shower. Use baby wipe.
Do not eat granola on your bed... just don’t.
Ventilation. Bugs. Rain. Nah. Smother.....
do not change clothes in a car... see curtains ^^^
Ok I lasted two nights so far. Argh. It might be time for the long ride home followed up by a search for a bigger rig.

Quote:Ok. Party time. Cammilu says it is her birthday today with a big 0 on the end of it. Ssssooooo being we aren’t all at her house and we ain’t right, I thought a virtual birthday party might be the way to go. She needs lots of gifts. Virtual is just fine. Bring your favorite virtual food. Decorate. Booze, too. Send her a video or virtual card. She doesn’t have a lot of storage. Cakes? Pies? Belated is ok if you miss the correct day.

Which sites have you found to provide consistent, reliable 10+ day forecasts? Basically, high-low temperatures and precipitation probabilities.
I use to rely on Intellicast, but that got subsumed by WeatherUnderground, which itself was subsumed earlier into Weather.com collective.
WeatherUnderground sounds cool, but relies on a network of private personal weather stations that can come and go. Also, there are no PWS on government land on the network. The weather inside a NF can be different than say Flagstaff proper. [There did use to be two PWS online inside the DOE high energy Nevada Test Site, but those dropped off just over a year ago.]
I found WeatherBug recently, but wonder about their more optimistic forecasts than other sites. "Don't give me no bad news"?

As per Kaylee's request and my previous comment:
What are y'all's thoughts or suggestions on buttons we might request to be added?
Here are Kaylee's suggestions: LOL, Virtual Hug, Geek Point
I suggest: Like, Laughing Face, Light bulb, Smirk or Sheesh, Ding (when someone gets it or is right) or a Nail (for nailed it) and of course OMG!
Granted many of these are emojis we can add but that requires adding a comment and causing a thread to get too long.
Many times something makes me laugh, or someone makes a great suggestion, which doesn't really need a one-word comment but an acknowledgement would be great to give to a post.
I, not being computer savvy in that sense, have no idea how complicated a process this might be.

The video starts off kind of boring for the first few minutes. I would love a build like this. The second link is more technical info on the shower.

In my years as a full time van dweller, (and a lifelong do-it-yourselfer), I have learned the things I could not be without, living on the road - heres a list of the ones I could think of off the top of my head -
• A black permanent marker (seem to reach for that thing every day).
• A good pair of tin snips, pliers, and vice grips.
• 4 in 1 screw driver
• Spool of multi-purpose wire - small guage, just plain ole wire.(a supply of extra speaker wire is nice too)
• Grocery store plastic bags (yes, I know - the environment) seems Im constantly reaching for one of those as well.
• Bag of miscellaneous rags.
• Bottle of ACV (and a spray bottle).
• Hand sanitizer.
• Scrap pieces of sheet metal and cardboard.
• Candles and candle lighter (did you know there is just a regular bic inside those?).
• Utility knife and pack of blades.
• Small tablets and a few pens.
• WD40
• Mouse/rat traps. (Little bastards!)
• Water filter (survival type)
• Needle, thread, and scissors.
• Wood glue, super glue, and duct tape.
• A few pieces of 2x4, 10-12 inches long.
• Coconut oil (gotta have a jar of that stuff - desert climate, for hair, skin, you can cook with it, eat it, hell, I even oiled my boots with it.).
• Spare 5 gal bucket.
Of course there are the obvious things - tp, baby wipes, paper towel, can opener, etc. - I wanted to share a list of a few items that I find myself needing/using regularly, and that people might not have thought of.
Please share your ideas and experiences -
