Hate to be Mr.-Nitpicking-Language-Person, but it's Recreation, not Recreacion.  Sorry, can't help it. As a voracious reader, spelling errors just jump out at me.

A friend who I won't name to protect the innocent recommended this forum to me.  For several reasons, mostly medical that make me not do well with stress I won't be very active.  So if you do need something email me or call me directly, I generally try to help most in any way I can. 
 
  I'm a disabled Army veteran, hurt on peacetime in 1990, broke 11 vertebra plus my head.  I healed mostly but the neck injury pinched off a blood vessel in 2009 and caused me a major stroke.  Now I suffer, though I'm mostly functional; can walk etc; from a condition known as VertebroBasilar Ischemia.  (That vessel pinches off causing mini strokes and a myriad of nerve issues.)
 
  I was educated as an Electrical Engineer after the Army, owned many small businesses and such.  Ran a homeless shelter on the side years ago, but lost everything after the stroke.  Now I'm sort of back on my feet and have opened my land up as Honeys Park, a completely free campground in Arco Idaho.  You can read more about me on my website if you wish, find it on google, freecampsites,net warmshowers.org, wikicamps and many others.  You're all always welcome.  I've only had one sort of negative experience I won't go into details about in the 6 years I've had it open, and they left on their own after a couple days so I didn't have to deal with it.  But because of them I offer 7 day windows of stay, which in truth get extended in perpetuity if your not a jerk and keep your spot clean.  So if you need a spot, I wouldn't recommend winter time as I'm above 5300 feet in the Idaho mountain plains and it gets cold and snowy.  I never close, but I don't plow, so December-February can be iffy on driving in, and unpleasant to stay.   I offer wifi, electricity and the opportunity to have a beer with me at my campfire.  
    I do it for several reasons a) When homeless I took care of a yellow lab of my daughter named honey.  I promised her she'd have her own park someday.   b) To help others; be it if they are poor and can't afford commercial campgrounds or just curmudgeon like me and can't stand those places.  and lastly c) To break up the day to day monotony of life.  So if you stop be friendly, I get guests that park a camper, stay a week, and never even walked over and say hi, and those are the people I don't understand. 
   I've lived this lifestyle on and off most of my life, but plan to stay RV living the rest of it. 

  The name: Scar Honig Stigr.   I get asked about it , so I prefer to settle the discussion ahead of time.  It's legal.  Part of it started out an Army nickname after my injury and the fact that I had a little girl in the 90s when a popular disney movie came out made it stick.  (Facial scarring, go figure).  She also named her dog Scar but thats little girls.  Then there was honey, whose name isn't very manly so if you want to honor her perhaps use my middle name; Honig German for honey.   My family was danish, and I named my last viszla Stigr, who has also passed now.  So I made it all legal, mostly because ten years ago when Scar the dog died my daughter said something along the lines of 'if you loved him so much dad why don't you take his name'.   Might have been sarcastic, but I went with it.   Now I'm down to one dog, a red tick hound named Ruby, and since I'm out of name changes, guess she's going to end up a tattoo eventually.  So there I am, layed out flat for all the world to see.  Huge dog nut, heavy on the NUT. 

  Stop by and see me, call of email directly if you need anything.  And if you're a woman who might be as lonely as I am consider me for the role of the guy who befriends you and helps you til the day we die.  (I stuck a personal in there see)

If I screw up while trying to post something - I know!  hard to believe, right? - a yellow box comes up with the following sentence in red:

! Please correct the following errors.

That's it, nothing else, no explanation of what the error is I'm supposed to correct.  Not at all helpful.

  parking in El Paso County, CO banned
Posted by: TWIH - 12-14-2017, 11:11 AM - Forum: Vandwelling News - Replies (18)

The Denver Post newspaper today had an article about "people living in vehicles" and how they are not allowed to park on public "rights of way" in El Paso County (the county that Colorado Springs occupies). Here's the link.  http://www.denverpost.com/2017/12/14/peo...nty-roads/

The county commissioner(s) said "that's what rv parks are for" or something else equally uneducated...

Just FYI for Colorado residents or those visiting there...

  nanocad 5
Posted by: Motrukdriver - 12-07-2017, 08:04 PM - Forum: Links/Apps - Replies (6)

I was looking for a free 2d cad program I could install on this laptop and found this.  It looks very similar to Autocad but I just installed it so not sure how everything works yet.  So far it seems usable if you are looking to design the interior of your rig.  Could probably make overlapping layers for stuff like electrical and plumbing etc or just draw everything on one layer.  I need to figure out how to make hot keys for commands that work like my Autocad back home.  Hope it is helpful....

https://nanocad.com/

I'm using the free version and it seems plenty hefty enough for basic drawing.
