    Been away for a couple of days to a funeral in another state. As a bit of a "germaphobe" I loath motels. In deciding where I was going to stay, I thought about you and your Prius camping and decided to pack my truck for a "truck camping" experience. The only thing I faced after packing my truck was where I was going to put me. :-) Packed my battery operated lanterns, my battery operated fan, and reflectix for my windows. All in all, had a very positive experience with it.

    This is the first of your older videos that I've watched. RVing has never interested me, although I did live and travel around in a modified 1956 Window VW Van, back in the early 1970's when I was in my thirties. I did all the traveling that I ever wanted to do during the years I was an Infantry trooper in the Army stationed in Germany after the II World War. That said, I still enjoy your Video Blogs and your optimistic views on your life. I especially like the views you have concerning health care. Like you, I also don't have any. I'm 82 and haven't been to an M.D. in over 50 years. I take care of myself with clean living and all the information
    I need to find out about health on this amazing RUclips and people like you. Thanks for your time and energy placed in these, your works of art and skill..

    Rusty I was watching so.e older videos I had not seen. An while watching this one. I thought this be cool if you could do something like this there in Capitain. But i remembered they would not allow this. But i did enjoy this setup you had here. Well enjoy your day. I was 2aiting on comment call. So ill check to see if its up by now.im I guess 2 hrs ahead of you here in NC. I always get off balance when time changes with your videos. I am used to by 8am I get them. An then when your not here at that time. Well I get to where Rusty!! Lol but true. Yes I would like to have a place as this. I would be a lucky dawg. Lol

  • @zift18

    Nice place Rusty. I've been wondering how you handle your septic. Where does it go? Also wondered about the advantage of building a enclosed pole building with a big barn fan built high up into the wall and wood/propane stove, where you can park the RV inside and have more protection from the elements and snoopy people. More room for a shop/living area and just odds and ends(like a full size bathroom in the corner. Just expanding on your setup. A bit more money to put together but hey.....It would just look like a farm building and it would be! No one would have to know you lived there. I'm always thinking covert.

    Your central Texas address looks like a perfect set-up for a home base. So much better than any RV park. I especially like the natural bushes and trees that provide you with a beautiful privacy screen. I guess it takes a guy a while in life to figure out a set-up like that--low overhead cost, simple, space, quiet, and freedom. If we only knew at age 20 what we know now, huh?

If I can sell my house(aka "the money pit"), decide on my RV and unload a lifetime of furniture, china, books, etc. etc....I'm going to hit the road and never look back! My favorite part of the country is the Northern California coast and Oregon...breathtaking! We never see snow down here...hardly even a change of seasons. Speaking of change...I NEED ONE! Thanks for your videos.

    Nice video, Sir Rusty. Upon retirement in about a year, my wife and I have toyed with the idea of something similar to your setup. The difference being two pieces of property.

    Hi Rusty, I am in love with your channel it is so imformative, and just love your personality. I am in Universal City, Texas next to San Antonio. I am originally a native southern California gal, but have lived most of my adult life in Jacksonville Beach, Florida called the first coast where Amelia Island, Fernadina Beach and nested between St. Augustine. Keep up the great job you are doing I have learned alot from this channel. In 10 years or so, I would love to own a piece of land like you have. Anyway--- all the best I hope you get that Class B you want so much, if everyone would pitch in with donating soda aluminum cans or bear then it would go over so fast, you would have the money in no time. Just a thought. :)

    • @karinhart489
      @karinhart489 6 лет назад

      It can really vary county by county, "subdivision" by subdivision. A friend (she's now 60) of mine's dad did the opposite of Rusty: a long time ago he knew he wanted to retire to the California coastal area (temperate climes). While his daughters were tiny he bought future build property near the Little River that explicitly permitted camping ⛺️ on it. Then he did the regular thing of moving his family all around the country, but they drove back to the property every summer to camp & really get to know the area. He started building when my friend was still in college so the house was ready when he wanted to retire. In that county at the time half the property had restrictions from camping on it. So you got do your research.

    I am thinking really the only choice is to live out of a van someday soon and have a trailer with it so my dad and I can live together on the road. I have looked up many choices that do not seem to be choices such as finding a small plot of land where I can do as you have but then all I see is all this zoning stuff, permits, laws and more money etc. Do you have any laws telling you that you have to have a sceptic in, or you have to have this or that? I mean I have even looked up things about living in an RV on a piece of land and it always comes to no. If this can be found what would be the cost in how you live?

    Hey Rusty, I am 72 and I really identify with your life style. I have a question for you, now I just came upon your youtupe so If you talked about this in the past, please excuse me. Why don't you have Texas as your winter palace and find someplace in the mountains like Pagosa Springs, Co as your summer location? To give you some idea where I am at, my wife and I are in the process of acquiring an RV and we are struggling with what kind: a Travel Trailer or a Class C. I already have a Jeep wrangler to tow. We want to travel the National Parks and intend to boondock a lot. Any Insight for us?
    I like your style and have subscribed.
    Best wishes,

    Aw I wanted to see the inside of your trailer :( how far are you from town Rusty. So it's cheaper for you run the small window air conditioner? I could never handle the heat your talking about in the summer.

    Just found your channel and enjoy your personality a lot! I cannot help from asking what price the cat paid for scratching your chair?
