We enjoy boondocking. We usually don't need the generator the first night, but like to run it to make sure everything is working smoothly for our nightly card game, unless there is a campfire. In the past our little "Mr. Heater" was used nightly until we went to bed, then used the furnace at around 55. Now after this years trip to Quartzsite we purchased and had installed a 10,000 BTU ceramic heater. Then the weather got warm! We have enjoyed it in the cool AZ evenings and to get the chill off in the AM. We have a 5500 watt generator, 2000 watt inverter and 4 - 6 volt batteries. So we can watch tv, microwave and not drain the laptop battery. We were fortunate that we had very nice neigbors in Q this year who let us use their wifi! Saved our cell phones, as we have to remember to charge them when the generator is running or in the truck. The only drawback to boondocking is the fast shower, and you do have to dump and take on water, by going into town or have a service come to you. Wal-Mart parking lots are great too, I don't like rest areas, the trucks run all night, and I don't feel quite as safe.
we go to Algodones, MX every year for medicine, have a great dentist, no pain, he won't do
anything that doesn't need to be done, eyeglasses and price haggleing, good margueritas, music and good food! So we boondock by the interstate on Quechan Indian land. Judy
