Do you know or have you hosted this user?
I'm a retired single engineer who enjoys working on my whole house renovation, off-roading with my Jeep, motorcycle riding and of course RVing. I tinker on many things doing most of my own vehicle maintenance, including my RV.
Skills & Expertise to Share
As my Dad used to say, Jack of all Trades, Master of none. Or as a childhood friend of mine describes our (his and my) abilities, we've got Homesteader Licenses - we can fix (almost) anything. What we can't fix we probably don't have any need for anyway.

Great host and location!
Our host was very patient and accommodating to us. He went above and beyond to help us. We had a little trouble getting in due to rain and he helped us get in and cleaned up behind us. His patience and grace was amazing. This was our first time and we could not have asked for a better host. His location was great for the RV and great in relation to Dallas. He also has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to rving.
Thanks for everything!

Quiet safe neighborhood
Great welcoming host. He helped us back down the drive way. The neighborhood was central to where we needed to be and quiet. I felt very safe staying here

Bob is so helpful!
While I attended a conference in Dallas on Friday, Bob helped my wife clean our motorhome tires to prep them for RenewProtect tire treatment. Then on Saturday, Bob gave me some more good tips as I treated my tires with RenewProtect (a great product btw). Thanks again Bob for such a pleasant, productive stay!

Nice Stop!
We were in need of wi-fi because ours crashed and BobinMurphy has a strong secure signal for his guest. It was a good stop the host is very knowledgeable of the area and answered all my computer server questions. I didn't get to quiz him as much as I wanted just plain run out of time. Get ready BobinMurphy we will see ya again someday!

Great Boondock
We really enjoyed our couple of days here. Bob is a great guy, really friendly and knowledgable. His help and assistance with some jobs on our rig was invaluable.

Very welcoming
He is an absolute genius! No joke! He is also very welcoming and so considerate. He knew the Darts (local train 🚊) that we should take everywhere and also the best places to eat. He lived on a culdesac Street which was perfect for my children and I to walk and bike on. He also knows everything about rv-ing! Such a wonderful person. We are so happy to have met him!

Bob is an amazing host!
Bob hosted me and my pup for 3 nights and was so accommodating. He offered water and electric, and I was parked on a nice dry and level surface that was fenced in. The neighborhood is beautiful and upscale. It is a slightly narrow drive like he mentions in his post, so you have to be able to back up well. Bob is so well travelled and has a lot of stories and knowledge. I look forward to looking at his personal webpage and many pictures of the places he's been. I cannot recommend Bob enough!!
