The continuing saga of a single fulltime RVer who travels the western US. This is part one of my journey, from April 2006, when the blog started, to May 2008, when the blog continues at www.lifeontheopenroad.blogspot.com
I have been a full-time RVer for 20 years, primarily "boondocking," camping free without hookups, in the Western US. My batteries are charged solely by solar panels. I welcome your comments and emails. I also make trips to other countries, although not usually with the RV.
Three dreaded days of work transferring stuff to the new rig. Most difficult are the electronics: Solar panels, batteries (shown here installed under the sofa), regulator, TV, satellite dish, telephone antenna.
An exhausted Randy reflects the tediousness of the task.
Bogus Basin -- 4000 feet higher and 16 degrees cooler than Boise is the right spot to do the hard work. Great view and free parking at a ski lot. posted by Diana | 7:28 PM

I am curious about the thermometer in the second picture. I am looking for something similar.
Sorry, after looking again, it appears to be a clock.
Great rig but take it easy on Randy, after all he is getting old. Squire, that is a thermometer/clock and is available at Walmart. We have one in our rig.

Congrats on your new home - may you experience many wonderful adventures!
Diana,
Please, you need to write a page about your new home-with special regard to how it fits your Boondocking Lifestyle. You know, including modifications and things learned. Shoot, you could probably write a Book on the subject...

Squire, I do have 2 indoor/outdoor thermometers that I got in the hardware/thermometer section of Walmart. Don't know whether they still carry them.
Lew, Great idea. Will do as soon as I get everything put away. Doesn't appear to be happening anytime soon. I don't understand how you can go to a larger trailer and not be able to find a home for half your belongings!
Diana
16 degrees cooler. Time to head higher or farther north. These 90 degree days are getting old and the humidity doesn't help.
Congratulations on your new home. I'm anxious to see it. How does Molly like it?
See ya down the road, somewhere, someday.
Congrats on the new rig. You can never fit all your stuff in a bigger rig! You have to drive awhile to let everything settle to it's lowest level before adding more "stuff". I know...had lots of practice. By the way, the high in Homer, AK today should be about 59.
Hugs, Sharon
