| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18807 | I watched the Hannah Straight video about ways to shower. The one about having a gym membership is real nice since so many people waste those. Gym chains are all over the US. They have showers. They're often open 24 hours. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| terapined Member since: Aug 6, 2014 Threads: 73 Posts: 11826 | Showering is convenient for me. I have a hot water heater. My system is more flexible then one in a house. House hot water heaters either heat with gas or electricity, not both. Mine is set up both ways. So if I lose power, switch to gas to heat hot water Leaving LA today and am absolutely thrilled Way too many cars Its absurd and ridiculous Too many roads allow parking on the side at night but not during the day That's a clear sign of too many cars I did check out the USS Iowa Pretty fascinating Decided to have some fish at the seafood market nearby Free parking and lots of spaces.

Of course if you haven’t been to Zion and Bryce they are special. There is also a Virgin River 2 day hike that ends in Zion that was spectacular. And technically not a ‘National Park’, but Escalante National Monument was great too. (Expensive) we spent 5 nights there with guides that brought stuff on llamas. And set up tents, cooked, etc.... |

| DRich Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 51 Posts: 4974 | As it gets warmer I hope you make it up to Montana. Beautiful country with many "small" towns that are very interesting. The Museum of the Rockies is my wifes favorite museum in the country. I have never spent anytime in Bakersfield and couldn't imagine why I would want to. The back surgeon my insurance company assigned me did his residency in Bakersfield. I was very fortunate that he was overbooked and I was assigned the guy that spent 10 years at Johns Hopkins. It was either a guy that specialized in Meth Mouth or Robotic Assisted Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion. I think I won. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Train lovers all over the world love to come here to watch trains do the tight loop climbing 77 ft going over its tail Amazing Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |
