NOMADICISTA

Got first shot 4 weeks ago. Scheduled to get next one tomorrow. We are having winter this week. Today it got up to 17 F. Tomorrow is supposed to be a 'scorcher' and get up to 18 F. Luckily, there is only about 1/4" of ice on the ground, covered by about 1" of fluffy snow. Slicker than grea...

Today I just felt like a post was needed for this year; Sunday, 10 Jan, Day 375, 2020.

We have 1 Million vaccinated as of today! It's a start...only 19 Million more to go in the next 8 days to stay on schedule.

But for now - it is time for most of us to pause - Merry Christmas!! Happy New Year!!

Well, I'm back for a minute or two. The one we were exposed to is fine - no symptoms, even though she had the disease. We will be on last quarantine day this Fri, no symptoms or other indications of ill health. We had one of the sisters pass away the day before Thanksgiving (not covid), and were una...

The US as a whole has handled this cluster about as badly as one could possibly handle it. If it was the stupid thing to do, we did it. 4% of the world's population and 20% of the world's deaths from covid. Doing great, USA! And our little corner of 'Covid Paradise' is exploding along with most of t...

Finished the MIG course. We were given some 6mm (1/4 ") plate to play with, which I found more enjoyable, probably because it was easier to weld. We only used mild steel on the MIG course, and went through open corner, butt, butt with gap, lap, fillet, pipe, vertical up, and over head welds. L...

Yesterday was a sad day in my personal 'Busville, USA.' My bus has been sitting for about 7 years with occasional starts to make sure engine still turns over and it moves forward and backward. Yesterday I tried another one of these couple times a year rituals and even with the brand new battery it w...

Fast learner. Looks good.

Mostly we have been going on as normal, working in the shop and at that farm. Well, except for trying to find stuff in the stores - I was only one going to store for several months. We use well fitted N95 face masks that I have used for decades in various hobbies, as well as insanely washing hands a...

That is a great painting! Pushes all the road trip yearning buttons! Well, it is Crazyville, USA here. As well as most of the world. Have been distracted for last couple months, so haven't taken time to post anything. The 'Rona' is the big thing most places, so will start there. Friend died from it ...

Thanks, Stuart! Everything looks like it works great again!

I know this place is very quiet, but it's still nice to come by an visit!

Always nice when things work the way you want them to! I keep forgetting to ask - and this is open to anyone with a bus. My long term insurance company - won't say who, but Jake is wearing khaki's - has seen fit to truly hose me on insurance! I stopped it for about 3 years while it has had some prob...

Well, that certainly beats all the bumps and bruises I have had for a while. Thank goodness - for me! Sorry for you! The medicine cabinet looks good - like it was made for that. I was able to copy/paste the links and one image came up to see. Yosemite is gorgeous! It has been too long since last vis...

Always loved that bus! The murals on the side are amazing!

[quote="dadeo"]The following is not my listing, nor do I have anything to do with it except sharing it: 1955 White double decker. This bus is a true relic. Titled as a motorhome. Was running when original owner passed in 2013. Has been sitting since. Has woodstove, bed loft, and more. Woul...
