    “Before I started watching your videos, I was afraid of everything”. What a profound effect Bob had for this person who needed relief, what a great use of time, Bob.

    I imagine a horse trailer is more heavy duty than a regular trailer, therefore should last a very long time. Interesting platform choice.

    I suffered from environmental depression and always felt so much relief and freedom when I went on camping trips. That's how I discovered I am not a city girl, I dislike being in a city and needed to get back to a more basic living. I'm so glad your friend found herself when she ran from her situation. If you are unhappy with what's going on around you, go where your heart is calling you to go.

      When I visited a small town on the Oregon Coast in 1989, I actually did catch my breath because I realized THIS was where I've always needed to be😍. I listened to my heart, worked hard toward my goal, and I moved here 13 years later. So yes, I agree, "go where your heart is calling you to go," because personally I've never regretted it for a moment.

      @@loriirons9503 I have a dear friend who used to spend his summers with his fellow retired cohorts and their horses at Tuolumne Meadows in the 1849'er Gold Rush Country of northern California. Horse camping "saved my life," he once told me.

      That truck is at minimum 22 years old, it is a 7.3 powerstroke diesel made from the 90's on until they quit making them in 2002 thanks to the non stop EPA rules on emissions by our ever expanding government overlords. Best truck ever made.

    The best kind of off grid heater is a vented propane heater. They're larger but they're the best out there and a extremely dependable primary source of heat. I just wish they were smaller like the diesel heaters. You can usually pick them up pretty cheap used. And they don't produce any condensation because it's vented none of the fumes go inside.
