Housetrucking down under down under

Hi all you housetruckers and housebussers of the the good ol US of A.
This is just a note to let you know that housetrucking in NZ is still alive and well. You may have noticed that stu.co.nz doesn't host the htnz or housetrucksnz info anymore, this has been moved to its own domain name, www.htnz.co.nz while I set up stu.co.nz for my own professional services.
The good thing is www.htnz.co.nz is more informative and more housetruck and housebus focussed, and won't be peppered with my own diatribe, rants or invective about everything mundane. (though i reckon that was the meat in the sandwich, eh?
So, make sure you vist and comment on what you feel needs commenting on.
You may have heard that the Tinkers and Traders have gone into hibernation mode, and an offshoot, Gypsy Travellers, was born and is currently touring the South Island of Gods Zone.
For them that are interested, I went to the Gypsy Fair the last time they were here in Wellywood, (the greatest capital of the world, home of the One Ring), and it seems they are growing.
Last year, there were only half as many buses and trucks as there were this year. Check out my gallery at HTNZ for the latest pics. (I use WordPress for htnz.co.nz, and it could be a little slow, so I apologise. Looking for a decent caching plugin if anyone is knowledgeable?)
BTW, currently getting a taste of USA as a friend is home from college for a break (from Idaho) and she says the weather here is wonderful. Sunshine and stuff, eh Reckons she hasn't been outside for three weeks over there...
Anyway, make sure you keep warm and safe and drive safely!
