bus woodstove
Hi guys ...
NO FIRE IN MOVING BUS !!!
It WILL create live sparks, it will cause wildfires ... you CANNOT pull into a filling station with an open flame ... Live coals from last night's fire WILL burn and create sparks ... make sure fire is out, even with dampers closed.
Common sense, kids ... I guess I'm worried because here in the South West we are deep in our fire season, and early ... Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado ... the ones burning in Colorado, almost All caused by unattended or not completely extinguished campfires ...
Just saying ... GoodClue
PS Ezrablu ... nice work on your bus.

> low pressure... draft up...
ooops... Something to do with wind, anyway. <g> Home combustion appliances like furnace and water heater usually have problems w/the wind blowing _down_ the flu. Just generally gotta respect fire in small quarters around flamables.
The most adrenalin I ever got from boating was when I popped a small grease fire on my stove in the salon. Had never thought about any of that before but Wow! All a sudden I KNEW why fire is the most scary thing ever on a small boat! Too much stuff waayyy too close _everywhere_.

Good stuff, Ezra!!
I am becoming more and more inspired by everyone's work. Bought two wheels, am looking for tires...actually waiting to save up money to buy two tires, and am getting insurance again. Previous company (State Farm) is appearing disinterested in me now. They will lose everything else I have with them at the same time they tell me no.

I moved this from the Photography thread/Answering Rufus comment:
Thanks Rufus...yep, I hit the motherload for 5 months (May thru Sept) to say the least getting all expenses paid and then some I only have to bring my personal things and everything else is provided...boats, fishing gear/poles, food, plane trips...they even clean all my fish! All I gotta do is some cooking and clean up some cabins every 5 days which only takes a few hours per day. I still can't believe it myself Here is a link to my facebook page if anybody wants see some photos. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set= ... 043&type=3I'll be leaving again to fly up there in 4 days...I'll be there until July 1st this time. Then fly up there again a week later. I could stay until the end of Sept but I gotta keep tabs that my dog Miss Kitty is being taken care of. It's literally paradise up there in the middle of nowhere. If you google Populus Lake you'll get an idea of where it is. It's all islands and lakes in that whole territory....I never knew it was like that until I used Google Earth to view it just before I left to head up there.
Ya, I've slowed down on my bus for the summer. But, I've got my bus about 80% done now and I'll definitely be moving into it in September when I return from Canada for good this year. Can't put it off any longer...ready or not, I'm in there this fall. Here's some photos although they don't show the most recent work so I'll need to get some new photos taken and I'll post them as soon as I do:

I hope these links work for everybody. Let me know if they don't and I'll see what I can do.

The links didn't work for me, but maybe thats because I'm not a facebook user?

Sorry about that. I have my settings so anybody can view them but perhaps Facebook now "forces" people to join in order to view things. Dirty rats...I dislike Facebook :/
I'll upload a few onto tinypics shortly.
