Blogger Blues

I can post, but I can't comment. I can't comment on your blog and I can't comment on my own blog. Weird.







Is anybody else suffering the same frustration? Got a fix?

In the meantime, I'm reading. If I have an earth shattering, mind boggling comment to make, I'll email you!

Filed under dreams: sheep camps

Sheep camp, Box Elder Creek, 1910. Photo by H. R. Daniel.


Last year, I picked up my lil Ford Ranger for a trip to the East Coast. I had been looking for an RV, but as the summer began to wane I decided to buy something I could tow, later. I looked at some larger trucks and decided against them since I was really focused on a Class C.

As you know, I'm still shopping for the RV. I look at all kinds of vehicles but am more focused on something the Ranger can tow, or something that can tow the Ranger.

The other day I ran across these beauties.


This is the Timberline XL, a 23' trailer.
Below are pictures of the standard package, including a wood stove.



All of the Timberline trailers can be customized.

Below, is the 14' Old Timer.


Standard equipment includes:
•14’ Camp
•Wagon Style running gear
•Fifth wheel turn table (not tie-rod)
•Full Bed
•Large tinted windows
•Table
•2-12vdc lights
•12vdc outlet
•Solar panel
•Dutch door
•Large wood stove w/oven
•Gas light
•2 burner gas cook top
•Benches and Cabinets w/plenty of storage space
•Pin type draw bar and hitch on rear
•Painted interior
•Vinyl flooring
•Galvanized exterior
•Metal lined under carriage
•5gal propane tank
•2 stage propane regulator

It doesn't have the pretty wood interior of the larger model, above. Nor does it have a bathroom. If I haven't found the RV I want by the end of the year, one of these could be at the top of my list.

I'll be calling for the specs, tomorrow. I'm wondering, too, about hauling that on a highway. A little top heavy in the event of a stiff breeze?

I'm going to take a chance and just throw this out there...

If there's anyone out there, expecting to be called to the Rapture, that will no longer need their Class C RV (preferably a late model, 23 or 24 ft. Lazy Daze with low mileage and solar panels) I'll be happy to take possession immediately!

I wouldn't turn my nose up at a house on a beach, ANYWHERE, either! (It doesn't have to be fancy)


I'd be happy to care of any pets that come with the RV or property, if it will ease your mind.

Hey! You never know unless you ask, right?


If you have a FaceBook account THIS is pretty amusing

Totally Off Topic

But I can't help myself



MANY thanks to our men and woman in uniform!

Too small? But I like the mileage!

In the UK, it's legal on the foot paths


and in the stores...


According to the manufacturer, ETA (Environmental Transport Association) was developed to, "...highlight the estimated 220,000 people who use a mobility scooter without breakdown cover and face the prospect of a very long wait should they suffer a mechanical fault or their battery runs flat..."

The QT Van got it's name because it encompasses three very British pastimes: queuing, tea and caravans.

Currently, it's being marketed as the perfect way of for elderly spectators to stake-out the best spot on the Royal Wedding procession route, without spending the night sleeping on the pavement.


Standard features include a 19" TV and a kettle. Optional features include solar roof panels, satellite dish, gaming console, central heating, external luggage rack, bespoke paint (whatever that is)

Watch the video, to take a tour of the vehicle. Don't worry, it won't take long!
