Southen California. Close to me. I'm wracking my brain trying to figure out where I could store/work on it.

That's pretty cool. I suspect there were issues or it would have caught on.

Is that a common enough design that a grate would be available?

It' kinda cool but I don't see it being real livable as currently set up. Like Sharkey said, it's pretty compact so you could park it about anywhere. Its age would make it stand out, so not too much for stealth camping.

Unless your bus is really a way back time machine and your dog's real name is Mr. Peabody.

About 300 miles from me. In serious lust, but nowhere to store/work on it and probably not the mad skills to bring it back to life. e-bay linkage

Hey!! It's a Nanday Conure. They were put on this earth to do as such. Their job is to make people crazy. They do it well, too. We have a pretty healthy population of wild parrots in my town. When they invade your neighborhood, it's always at day break and sundown. Noisy critters; I'm always glad w...

I was sitting in a nice, upscale coffee shop, enjoying the music and my cup of hot coffee. Out of nowhere, I got a gas bubble from hell that built up in my stomach. I didn't want to give up my table, so I decided to time my fart for when the already loud music would hit it's peak. I did this about t...
