We both very much enjoy Classic Car Shows and going to Flea Markets & Yard Sales
One of our favorite laid back spots is Boondocking in the Desert near Quartzsite AZ.
One of our Favorite busy Cities is Las Vegas, always have great Shows and we enjoy 'people watching' around the Strip.
Presently we do not have any pets, although in the past 14 yrs we have had 2 German Shepard's that were great dogs and very much loved by both of us.

Tom and his wife stopped to visit. Tim and I had a great conversation with them, only to realize that it was Tim's last. Tom and his wife helped me and comforted me in my time of need. Remarkable people. I will always treasure what you did for me. They are genuinely nice and down to earth people.
Had chance to hear about there travels, was very informative. Quite , hardly even knew they were here.
Tom and Bida were wonderful guests...friendly and very quiet...if not for seeing their rig in our yard, we wouldn't have known they were there! They were very respectful of our property and kept their site very tidy.
They are welcome to come back for a visit any time. We wish them safe travels.
It was nice to meet Tom and Be. They are a very nice couple and I would invite them back anytime they are passing through Ottawa. I hope to meet up with them this winter as I head south to get away from the snow. Nice to meet other boondockers that enjoy the same things as I do.

Not fussy about being perfectly level or perfectly quiet (highway noise). Tow vehicle hooks up and unhooks real easy and does not have to be flat like some tow bars.
