    So many of you have asked about the window vents. Kate could not remember the name of where she bought them. But, WalMart sells something very similar online from OMAC for Promasters. Also Eurocamper, and if you put in AMAZON and car window vents loads of similar products will come up.

It felt so good that he called asking me to go get his meds! I was very happy to. Then waiting I see this sweet message! God answers prayers! Thank you for gifting me feeling like a valued person today! My Neighbor was on the phone with his Mom who was so kind to me for helping her boy! I was a stay at home Mom who volunteered everywhere!

      It's called 'waiting for God'.. in the old people's village I live in, its endemic. I'm not into that. I want to stride out and meet God. I'm actively seeking a mobile home. Thought I had one but they got greedy so back to square one. So I'm fascinated by this, both in our 70's, I'll do it too, even if I have to rock on down to the Men's Shed for help with tools etc.

    She keeps referring to herself as an old lady, but she's proof that age is only a number. Kate is such an inspiration. She's doing more at her age, than women, that are half her age. She's living an active lifestyle, traveling, and living her best life. She looks amazing, she's healthy, brilliant, and just so charming. If she has a channel, please let us know. This was a great video, and God bless you both. 🕊

      I believe a lot of us who are adventurous and want to explore have been that way about most things during our life. I'm 81 and retired four years ago as a crisis counselor covering seven prisons. I've been rving for two years and last month my rv quit for good, I'm now looking for one similar and just learned from this wonderful woman some new information that will improve the quality of my rving when I get a different one. In this type of exploring we all continue learning - from each other, from ourselves, from various other means. Our passion for living expands. See how happy and content Kate looks? It's real. There are many reasons we do what we do. Yes, we do have fears. We learn to embrace them and overcome them. We continue to grow and love what we do because of our new growth developed from our explorations. If you want to explore then just do it.

    Kate is truly inspirational, and so natural and ego-free about the whole thing. I am 78 and believe deeply that "age" is a concept foisted upon us by "society." Go against the grain, go with your soul/heart, seek adventure, seek learning ... never stop exploring and pushing boundaries.

    Our matress is from SLEEP ON LATEX as well. The 6" matress was expensive, so we went with 2 - 3" toppers and we are super happy with it, and saved some $$.
    What a lovely van. She did amazing!

    • @rosett3487
      @rosett3487 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @Corndog Caravan - Could you tell me regarding your 2-3" topper - was it soft, medium, or hard? I looked online at the company, but I'm not sure whether to buy the soft or medium. Thanks

    • @CorndogCaravan
      @CorndogCaravan ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@rosett3487 we prefer a firm matress so we went with firm for our bottom and medium for our top. So it really all depends on what kind of matress you like. If you want a soft matress you might like medium on the bottom (for support) and soft for the top. But it really depends on how soft you want. Just a thought.
      Matress buying is so hard! It's such a commitment!
