Greetings & Welcome!

You came to the right place, lots of good people here.

I’ve done winters down to -60 and summers up to +123 comfortably in my vans or motorhomes. I have lived on the road by choice since right out of high school, working 30 years as a traveling construction worker, and now I make even more money working for myself. 47+ years and counting, and I’ve rarely regretted my choices. I plan to continue as long as possible.

We’re glad you’re here, and look forward to your participation.

Cheers!
