We have a nice level neighborhood right outside the Pax River Navy base. A mostly level driveway, best for a class B, camper van, or travel trailer. Street parking also available. 15amp hookup and water hose available in driveway for fill up only-- it leaks, so we can't allow full hook up. Verizon works great here, but Sprint/T-Mobile don't seem to get signal, so if you need the Wi-Fi password feel free to ask! There is a fish pond (Mudbunny Pond) in the front yard. It may be seasonally covered, but if it is not feel free to sit down and see the fish; kids love to feed them their fish food.

Age:

Explorer Details: 30-something explorer of the world; love journeys but I am pretty partial to my beautiful USA. I have 30+ countries, 49 States, and 3 destroyed backpacks. Enjoying a mini-midlife-retirement until I go back to work with the DoD. Often travel with my mom, the travel trailer is hers. By myself, I usually stick with my boots, sometimes a car. Home Town: Lexington Park, MD Favorite Boondocking Locations: Honestly, we mostly stick with Walmarts because we don't use the toilet (We CAN, it works, just don't want to, yuck) so we like having a restroom nearby. When we camp or stay with a host, you will notice we are gone for a half hour or so each night to find a restroom before bed :p Skills or Expertise to Share: Wilderness skills. Budget travel skills. I'm not bad at mini golf.

A little late posting this. I enjoyed meeting the two sisters ladt week. I parked my rig in the driveway while I visited family in the area. They we so helpful and sweet!! They provided an adapter for me to plug into their house so i could keep my fridge running. I bought them flowers and jellies to say thank you and gave a bit of money for a bit water. I will be back if in the area again! Im sorry, I forgot to take pictures:(

I had my first Stuffed Ham Sandwich (yea it is a local thing). Ended my two day stay with smores around the campfire! Whew! Cool, cool stay. 48statesin48months.net
