I saw a bumper mounted carrier in a park yesterday, then drove by an old skoolie that had tomatoes and pansies growing on the bumper and I guess the two kind of blurred tonight and got me thinking about rooftop carriers and greenhouses. <br /><br />Probably wouldn't make border crossings any easier though :)NOLA's Lost Sonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12052910224634958600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683772616916152446.post-18930176161103893632010-10-03T13:59:53.948-07:002010-10-03T13:59:53.948-07:00Remi,

Lookin...Heidi, I love the blog and overall concept. Looking at the links for this post while sipping coffee got me thinking. When I first started looking at RVs, one thing I noticed a lot of folks with smaller ones say they never use the enclosed showers. Well, since most of these have skylights, water source and a drain, wouldn't it be possible for van dwellers who don't use their enclosed shower to convert it to a little botanical garden/green house? Oddball thought, I know. Personally, I wouldn't give up my shower, but for those who don't use them, it's a possibility.NOLA's Lost Sonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12052910224634958600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683772616916152446.post-71966242603893383112010-10-03T08:00:36.896-07:002010-10-03T08:00:36.896-07:00Thank you all so much for all of your comments!

This would be an amazing networking community as there is definitely more out there, I just need to tap into my resource people to gather the information in one place. <br /><br />I used to travel and work farms and homesteading places when my kids were younger and I had been feeling like I wanted to tap into this lifestyle again.<br /><br />Your timing at creating this new term "VanSteading" and creating this community is perfect timing with where I am at in my life journey. I am really excited to see how this unfolds.Gypsy Trailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354740852169049437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683772616916152446.post-21570931178912128122010-10-02T17:25:41.675-07:002010-10-02T17:25:41.675-07:00wow!
