Be My Guest boondocking coupon code. Lipid profile and glucose: vegan-style.

Last October we were vegetarian, but not vegan. About halfway in-between these two tests, we removed dairy and eggs from our diets; this represents about six months of a whole-foods vegan diet.

These numbers haven't been this good since I was a spring duckling. I expect them to get better.

I am not having a stroke, but this is a stroke of good luck straight from Marianne Edwards; it's 10% off whichever membership you choose in Boondockers Welcome - Be My Guest RV Parking. Remember, any membership you choose comes with the FREE New Mexico boondocking guide e-book that usually goes for $17.

Free gift with your membership

If you use this membership one time this year, it has paid for itself twice. And, the New Mexico guide stays with you forever. You know, digital forever.

If you decide that the membership isn't worth it to you after you join, just politely tell Marianne within 90 days and she'll refund your money.

I should disclaim here that I'll get a bit of your membership fee if you join through our link. You don't mind, right? It'll be like going to the pond and feeding the ducks.

The 10% discount code expires November 19, 2012!

Free attractions and entertainment while you RV.

Nina ordered us to see the Little Hollywood museum, and so I threw myself on it.

The Good Luck Duck - we hanta sleepin' there, neither.
I hanta goin' in there.

Boondocking tip #82 - how to have the Old West to yourself.
How to have the Old West to yourself.

This is worth seeing, because you're here and because it's free. I'm not big on Westerns - always wondering when they last saw a washcloth - but there are original sets that you may recognize if you're a fan. I've probably even seen The Outlaw Josey Wales. His chair was not on display.

Not shown: the sad attempt to take my own picture at the old-fashioned face cut-outs. It would break your heart.  

Even more interesting is the line of Prison Blues clothing sold in the store. I won't pay $40 for a pair of jeans until I pass GO on my dog, but they feel sturdier than Levi's. Oregonians, tell me more about this program, if you know more. Russ, make something up. There's no fact-checker here. My questions are, do the  profits from these items relieve taxpayers' burdens? Or, does a private prison company reap the rewards?

BREAKING NEWS: all Kanab statues are male.

I've never read anyone suggesting free podcasts as entertainment on the road, so I'm stepping up. There are first-rate podcasts available for nothing. Load up while you're somewhere with wifi.

Our favorites are This American Life, RadioLab, and Wait, Wait

If you already pod, tell us what you like.

Where have they been all my life?

It's hard to explain why I haven't been following Cheap RV Living forever. Cheap RV Living - it's my mantra. These are my people.

They got my attention today with their opening article on living without health insurance. As of 2010, one in six of us is uninsured. One in five has trouble buying healthcare, and one in five puts off treatment.

The Cheap RV folks' rationale and attitude toward healthcare rings true for me. Take a look and see if it might for you, too. And, watch for upcoming articles in the series. It's a hot topic.If you're feeling argumentative about it, take it to RV.net, then come back and have a cup of tea with us.


We're unsettled of mind today because we may need to head back to Florida, but we don't know when. Or if. Or when. Or if, for that matter.


Here's a picture I stole from the Internet. Be kind to each other.
