Dancing With Life – The Naked Hippies Way

Dancing with life sounds like a beautiful way to live. It’s great if you can flit and float on life’s “dance floor” with ease and grace, but life doesn’t always waltz along smoothly.

The #1 question we are being asked these days is, “Where to next?”

It’s been a month of traveling a circuit through Missouri to see our kids and grandkids and friends, not much different, I imagine, than a band going from town to town to perform; although “perform” for us was more time of connecting and catching up, but still, required being “ON” and immersed in constant activity and conversation.

where to next for the naked hippiesNow that this annual trek is coming to completion, we are wondering where to next? The loosely held plan is to return to Quartzsite in October for the winter months, so that means we have five months to go anywhere we choose. But, we still haven’t decided, still are in the talking stage of “wouldn’t this be fun, or this, or this.”

This decision so beautifully parallels a much deeper decision we have been contemplating, researching, learning about and immersed in for the past several months … a personal decision about where am I going next.

And while the road trip decision is one that we anticipate with eagerness and excitement because this is what we know, what we do …

 

the personal decisions about  life and who I am and what do I want to do is not such clear cut, easy one to make.

Some may scratch their heads at this revelation I just shared because the perspective is that Bruce and I ARE living our dream. Most people express their desires to do what we are doing … so what else is there for the Naked Hippies to do?

It’s the same ol’ thing that perplexes and calls each of us to be more and do more in life, a constant seeking to find what’s next after you are doing what you’ve always wanted to do. For there is no end to this life until one takes that last breath, and there are so many possibilities available, so many different directions to choose from that will stretch you to expand and enrich life, no matter your age.

We have been with young people and old who are struggling to find the “gem” of purpose in life. There is a heavy sense of unfulfilled dreams and desires, a longing to “someday” be and do more, but it is waiting on a back shelf until the time is right. And all excuses given sound reasonable and validate the reasons to wait, but oh, how my soul fidgets when I hear these explanations.

For this is what I know and have experienced – life is too short to wait until everything is lined up perfectly, until all the perceived needs are met so that the path you choose will be as easy and delightful and rewarding. We didn’t wait, we took leaps of faith. Our story of these leaps is shared in my book “RV LIVING The Naked Hippies Way: Live Your Dreams, Don’t Wait for “Someday.”

You see, when you dare to start thinking about a change to make in your life, your ego which holds a PhD in architecture and engineering, pulls out the “set in stone” blueprint and begins to argue against making any changes. Your ego says, “It’s not logical, it’s not safe, you’ve never done this before, you might fail, it could be disastrous. Everything is in place, according to this blueprint … why would you want to make any changes to something that is so familiar and comfortable?  You are C R A Z Y!”

But your soul, that pure part within you that pulses with your heartbeat and that knows you intimately, continually hums a melody that every once in a while you hear and recognize. It causes you to begin to dance to with a grace and freedom that feels so right, so perfect, so joyful.

Dancing with life to the music of your soul is bliss.

And you dance for a while, moving and swaying in the flow of your soul’s song, feeling free, feeling empowered, feeling like you have found Nirvana … until the ego cuts in and begins reminding you of all the dangers of the unknown.  It’s like you were dancing to the music of a beautiful waltz, twirling and gliding so gracefully, when all of a sudden, the ego changes the song to “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” and you are whisked into a frenzied jig of upheaval and anxiety.

What I’ve noticed as we meet up with old friends and make new ones along the way is that when we dance the “waltz” among so many who are dancing the “jig,” their soul recognizes the peace and joy and flow of our waltz and they join us in the dance for brief moments, but soon they return to the jig that they have mastered and do so well.

Bruce and I do that as well. We’re not always dancing to our soul’s song. Not always dancing like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Our egos also storm out on the dance floor and interrupt the flow, demanding the jig.

It’s not the physical “where to” that has us dancing the jig … it’s the inner “where to next.” It is exhausting and overwhelming and disempowering when you allow the ego to control the dance.

This past winter, we danced like we were eighteen again! It was something we had never done in our ten years together. Even in this experience, our ego wanted to control by suggesting we’d embarrass ourselves. Instead, we did it anyway and had the most fantastic times on the dance floor.

But, what was so noticeable and insightful was how the music determined our participation. When 70’s rock and roll was played, we danced non-stop. When the music changed to another genre such as hip-hop, we sat down. When we knew the music, our feet glided and stomped, our bodies wiggled and swayed because the songs that we remembered from decades ago were brought to full expression through us.

Your soul’s song, the one that is as familiar to you as 70’s rock and roll was to us, is always playing, but most of the time, your ego has cranked up the volume to drown it out.

The quest is hear the song that reverberates within as often as you can. When you do, instead of hearing all the reasons why you can’t, you shouldn’t, you are not enough … your being is soothed and inspired and held in a space of peace that passes all understanding.

I encourage you to find a way to turn up the volume on your soul’s song. Find a way to be exit the noise and dissonance of the ego and begin dancing with life.  And do it often, do it routinely so that it becomes part of your day as habitually as brushing your teeth every morning.

That’s what Bruce and I are doing right now … dancing with life. We’re exiting the ego’s jig as much as possible, using meditation and contemplation to return to the waltz where the soul sings the lyrics “anything is possible, all is available, you have more to be and do with the years that are left.”

Stay tuned. Soon we’ll be heading in a new direction physically as well as purpose-full. Just need a few more rounds on the dance floor!

Enjoy this … it never ceases to amaze me!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Naked Hippies in Quartzsite

In two days, the wheels will start turning once again as we begin our trek back to Missouri to visit family and friends after spending 40 days and 40 nights in the desert in Quartzsite.

Well, not really 40 days and 40 nights. We’ve been here for 151 days, a total of five months camping off the grid on BLM (Bureau of Land Management) land where hundreds of thousands gather every winter to escape the cold and snow.

We came here not knowing all the how’s and when’s and where’s of setting up camp in the middle of a desert … new territory with new experiences. All that we knew for sure was that our $180 long-term camping pass bought us a camping spot from October 15 to April 15 and access to trash dumpsters, water and a dump station.

RVs everwhere in Quartzsite!

The total acreage of the BLM land in Quartzsite is over 11,000 acres. There are four different camping areas available and during the height of the winter season, all are filled with the assorted extreme of campers — from tents to vans to pickup campers to the fancy schmantzy class A’s.

The population of this tiny little town explodes during the winter season from 879 to estimates of hundreds of thousands!

We arrived before the onslaught and by the time we prepared to leave in April, it was fast becoming a ghost town again.

 

Big Foot nestles in Quartzsite desert

We picked a spot, further back across a few washes with a beautiful saguaro out our back door, surrounded by mountains, where the sunrises and sunsets dazzled and awed.

Once we settled in, we never sought a different spot – it was perfect. Lots of wide open space all around us, a few neighbors now and then, but no one ever parked close enough to make us feel like our space was being invaded.

So began a new experience of living in the desert – and even after five months, we are still taken aback by the majestic beauty, the peace and serenity and finding it difficult to leave. But, then, a few recent days with temps in the 90s tells us we definitely don’t want to be here during the heat of the summer.

Now, I at first thought this blog post would tell you how we lived here and made it work without full hook-ups. Nah … that’s not why I am compelled to write about camping in Quartzsite. There’s plenty of others who give you the tips and tricks for doing this sort of camping. Same as my book that isn’t a “how to” live a fulltime RVing life, but a WHY to live your dream.

No, it was all the new experiences we had here, far removed from the hustle and bustle of society (at least until we had to make trips to replenish supplies). Life slowed down, time expanded and we found ourselves living with the rhythm of nature.

Quartzsite rocks create a beautiful peace sign

I was immediately drawn to the rocks that grace the land here. I couldn’t resist their pull to be noticed, appreciated, held and yes gathered in my pockets or bag to take home.

The gleaming white quartz that I collected became a giant peace sign that marked our camping spot. And then, the other rocks of a vast assortment of colors began to cry out to me … greens, blues, turquoise, rose, orange, purple … so vivid and beautiful as I walked the desert washes.

 

 

Spectacular sunrises every morning in Quartzsite

How perfect this setting was for us … out in nature, removed from traffic and frenzy, spectacular sunrises and sunsets, a blanket of stars at night, full rainbows, coyote serenades … so perfect.

And then, there were the people we met here who became like a family so that even though we were far removed from society, we found a circle of friends who reached out, invited, shared and helped with what they had, what they knew.

If we wanted to be around people, the huge tent that served as a community center provided plenty of opportunities to connect and engage and have fun. There was a calendar filled with activities – from yoga, exercise, dances, karaoke, creative crafts, Vegas nights, movie nights and a daily happy hour that brought us out of solitude to meet and get to know the other campers.

When Thanksgiving and Christmas came, we gathered for potluck dinners that more than satisfied our taste buds and soothed and comforted our separation from families back home.

 

We were blessed by these new friends who came to our rescue when repairs were needed, when we needed groceries or firewood. Friends who said, “Come, let’s go to Mexico!”  Friends who made Bruce’s birthday special by sitting around our campfire. Friends who gave, served, loved life, loved freedom, just like us.

The blessing of this circle of friends was unexpected and a saving grace that filled these five months with fun and laughter, adventure and new experiences … like dancing the night away.

Dancing! It was something that Bruce and I had never done aside from a slow dance under the stars sometimes … but never in public among other people. With the almost weekly dances, we couldn’t, wouldn’t, didn’t want to exclude ourselves from the fun, so we went to our first dance. Loved it.  Went to the next and the next and the next.

We were dancing fools! Crank up the 70s rock n’ roll and we never left the dance floor!  It was like being back in high school as the familiar tunes reached our memories. We found our rhythm – we danced like no one was watching – huge smiles never left our faces.

So, while we were having a blast here, loving everyone and everything that we were experiencing, the “other” side of our life continued to evolve and expand and keep us with one foot in the “real” world while the other foot secluded and separated us from it.

Life interrupted harshly. My brother-in-law died, followed by the death of our dear friend in Eureka Springs. Life also blessed and enriched us. A granddaughter came into this world. Bitcoin rose to new heights and our investments in cryptocurrencies provided the means to make major repairs on our truck. I began a weekly call that allows me a platform to develop my teaching and speaking skills.

And, after all the fun and excitement of the activities and friendships made, we retreated to immerse in what matters most of all – returning to the one path that we never leave, no matter where the road takes us – going within.

It’s like a calling, a whisper, a nudge, a reminder that no matter where we are, what we do, who we are with … there is a greater power within that provides more fun, more connection, more peace and more love, beauty and joy than all that we see surrounding us in this physical world.

We were moved and drawn to this return by the experience of the drum circles we attended week after week. A new rhythm was found there as we sat around the campfire joining in to keep the beat of Mother Earth strong. A familiar rhythm that rose up and grew within and without.

For the last couple of months here in Quartzsite, we remembered, renewed and restored the rhythm of us, Bruce and Trisha, the Naked Hippies. Some of the inner work we did was painful, but it opened for us a deeper connection, both to each other and to God.

Our daily routine changed from seeking stimulation and support from outside of ourselves to finding the true Source of it all. At times, we made ourselves go into town just to come down from the lofty heights that we were experiencing.

It has been phenomenal. Our camper became our sanctuary. We immersed in teachings that broke open new understanding of why we are here, what really matters, how we react and respond, what we really believe.

It has prepared us for the road ahead. Not just the travels we will enjoy this summer, but also for all that life will drop in for us to experience – all of it, from the highest highs to the lowest lows.

And most of all, this time and energy we have spent as strengthened our faith, trust and belief that we are loved, supported, protected and provided for fully, abundantly, unconditionally, exceedingly by the One who is called God, The Universe, Source, Spirit, Quanta. The One who said, “Ask and it will be given. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened.”

In a couple of days, we will head to Missouri to be reunited with our kids, grandkids and friends. We will most likely look the same to them (a little more tan, of course) but we are not the same as we were the last time we were together. We have grown spiritually to a new level that will only be evident and expressed by our words and actions.

We came to the desert to escape the cold of winter and to rest and be renewed. Oh, how our time has been blessed beyond what we first imagined when we planned for our winter in Quartzsite.

Blessings have poured forth to us over and over in all the ways I’ve shared in this blog post, and in ways that words cannot convey.

We leave here with the peace, love, assurance and delight
that come as we open ourselves to be an expression of God
living in us, through us, as us.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

How to Find Copyright Free Images So You Don’t Get Sued

[et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_row custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” _i=”0″ _address=”0.0″][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.80″ text_font_size=”16px”]

How to find copyright free images? This matters greatly to any blogger and anyone who posts images on Social Media sites.

We’ve all done it – hurriedly and excitedly grabbed an image from Google to use in a blog post, a Facebook meme or a sales page. It’s so easy and there’s so many great images available on the internet.

Plus, it seems everyone else is doing it, so what’s the big deal? Why should you be so very careful with the images you use? Here’s why! You could be sued for using a copyrighted image.

That quick download of an image could end up costing you big money in a lawsuit.

Roni Loren experienced this firsthand when she was sued for an image she used in a blog post.

Recently an avid internet marketer was sued for the image he grabbed from the internet.

Roni Loren explains It DOESN’T MATTER…

  • if you link back to the source and list the photographer’s name
  • if the picture is not full-sized (only thumbnail size is okay)
  • if you did it innocently
  • if your site is non-commercial and you made no money from the use of the photo
  • if you didn’t claim the photo was yours
  • if you’ve added commentary in addition to having the pic in the post
  • if the picture is embedded and not saved on your server
  • if you have a disclaimer on your site.
  • if you immediately take down a pic if someone sends you a DMCA notice (you do have to take it down, but it doesn’t absolve you.)

How to Find Copyright Free Images

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.80″][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.80″]

1. Use your own pics.

With the ease and technology that smart phones have provided, you have the means to stay safe by using your own pics.

2. Subscribe to an image service.

The costs for subscriptions like Shutterfly varies but it can get pretty pricey if you use a lot of images.

3. Use copyright free images.

Ever since I read the first horror story of a blogger being sued for using a copyrighted image, I always refrain from just grabbing any image from Google. The great news is that I’ve always been able to find exactly what I needed when my own pics just didn’t suit the intent of my blog post or Facebook meme. This is where I find copyright free images. *** My first go-to source for images is Pixabay.com. Pixabay is a vibrant community of creatives, sharing copyright free images and videos. All contents are released under Creative Commons CC0, which makes them safe to use without asking for permission or giving credit to the artist – even for commercial purposes. Set up a free account and begin using this amazing service. *** My second source is actually Google images! But it’s more involved. I do an advanced search to find images that are copy-right free and available to use and modify, even commercially. Here’s how to find copyright free images  on Google

Do a Google search for your subject, then click on “Images.” In this example, I searched for mountains images. Look at that – 27 million images! I hit the mother lode!

Wild Wild West on the Cryptocurrency Frontier

The Wild Wild West was exciting and dangerous and filled with opportunities.

There are times, as we travel along, I think of all the explorers who were the first to gaze upon the land that I now see.

I imagine the pioneers trudging along in the first RVs – the covered wagons – pressing onward to land and freedom and opportunity.

It definitely wasn’t an easy journey. There were hardships and battles that I cannot fathom as I sit in a comfortable seat in our pickup truck, protected from rain and cold, able to travel to destinations in a matter of hours instead of days and months.

I guess I’ve watched enough movies and read enough stories to grasp the magnitude of the Wild West – a time when a new frontier beckoned people to come, to see, to seize the opportunities of a new and different way …

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px” _builder_version=”3.0.80″][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”3.0.80″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.80″ text_font_size=”16px”]

enough to realize that right now, in the cryptocurrency industry –

it’s the Wild West happening again.

 

There are the adventurers, the explorers – who are navigating through the new world of blockchain to discover how and where and when and why this technology works.

There are the greedy scammers who are selling “Fool’s Gold” – selling coins with a guarantee of a return on your investment just to get your money.

There are those who are pulled to “GO WEST” – much like the Gold Miners, who hold that vision of freedom and abundance in their hearts so strongly that they begin to dig (invest).

There are those who are selling “picks and axes” to the Gold Miners – in the form of education and training about cryptocurrencies.

 Yep! It’s the Wild Wild West …

and right now, in the cryptocurrency frontier, a lot of excitement is erupting as more and more “settlers” arrive.

On our own trek to this new frontier, we were lucky. We picked up the right picks and axes to go mine for “gold.” It didn’t cost us our life savings to get these tools.

 

And ever since, we’ve been striking gold!

 

We’ve learned how to invest, what coins to invest in … and watched the value of Bitcoin jump from $700 when we first started to over $6000 now. That definitely ain’t fool’s gold!

We’ve got a party of determined pioneers traveling the “Crypto Trail” with us …

Ready to come along to the Wild Wild West of the Cryptocurrency frontier? 

Start here for free, but to get the ultimate picks and axes, you’ll want to upgrade.

Sit around the campfire with the other pioneers here

I’ll meet you at the saloon to celebrate!

Free Camping! We love it and this is how and where the Naked Hippies do it!

We’ve been to 19 states this year, traveling nearly 11,000 miles and not once did we pay for a campground! My last blog post told the “inside” story of why were were able to do this.

We have received so many questions about the nuts and bolts of how we actually do this.

For those who want to know HOW we manage free camping so easily, this is for you.

 

This is our way, The Naked Hippies Way for free camping. Take whatever ideas you think you can use – but remember, this is all part of being willing to be uncomfortable to live your dream. Our Big Foot pickup camper provides us shelter, a comfortable bed, a fridge and a stove. The kind of free camping we do is for those who want to get off the grid and do it as cheaply as possible.

 

WHERE DO WE FIND FREE CAMPING?

We have slept on the mountaintop in Colorado, in the woods in Minnesota and yes … in WalMart and Flying J truck stop parking lots. It’s all a matter of location and convenience. Since WalMarts are everywhere, they are always the sure backup when a site out in nature is not so readily available.

These are the resources I use to find free camping:

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”27px|0px|2px|0px” _builder_version=”3.0.80″][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.80″ text_font_size=”16px”]

1. BUSINESS LOCATIONS:

First, get the AllStays App:  This is a lifesaver for us. It’s not free, but it has paid for itself over and over again. I think I use this app more than any other on my phone.

This app gives you a multitude of selections from free and paid camping sites, casinos, state parks, national parks, public lands, RV stores, rest stops and truck stops.

TIP:  When putting in a location, always type in city and state (not abbreviated)

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_image src=”https://nakedhippiesroadtrip.us/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Free-camping-AllStays-App.jpg” _builder_version=”3.0.80″ use_border_color=”on” border_color=”#0c71c3″][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”1px|0px|0px|0px” _builder_version=”3.0.80″][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.80″ text_font_size=”16px”]

When we camp at WalMart, we always call to make sure it’s okay to park overnight. It just makes sense to make sure before settling down for the night. You definitely don’t want to be awakened by security telling you to move. Most WalMarts do allow overnight camping; but in some towns and cities, a local ordinance overrides the WalMart nationwide policy, so always ask.

We also usually do a little grocery shopping in the WalMart – a way of “paying” for the privilege of camping there for free. And, we never “set up camp” in the parking lot. We don’t pull out the camp chairs and announce in any way that we are camping. (seen it many times and wondered who really thinks watching WalMart activity is relaxing?!)

Casinos are also a great place to park for the night. The AllStays app will give you the location and a review from those who have camped there before. Again, it always is a good idea to get permission.

Flying J is our number one truck stop for overnight camping. There is always a good number of RVs parked at Flying J along with the diesel trucks. We have become so accustomed to the rumbling noises of the diesels that it’s like white noise to us now as we sleep. There’s also usually a Denny’s available. Or if not, Flying J does a decent job with their convenience food.

One more perk for staying at Flying J is that most of them have RV dump stations and propane tank filling available. We signed up for a Flying J rewards card and can dump for a discounted price of $3.00 – instead of the $10 fee.

2. CAMPING FOR FREE IN NATURE:

We use two websites to find free camping at national parks and on BLM (Bureau of Land Management) land:

Campendium and FreeCampsites.

These are great resources that have helped me find amazing, beautiful and free camp sites as we travel. I start by putting in the state and then zoom in to see what is available close to our destination. Most of the free campsites have a 14 day stay limit.

TIP:  Always look for the camp sites that have reviews to help you find the best spot – or to avoid the ones that aren’t so favorable. Read the reviews to find out how scenic the site it, how the roads to access the site are, and what kind of reception your wireless carrier has there. I love the reviews that include pictures as well.

Once I find a location that sounds perfect for us, I have the directions sent to my phone. Easy-breezy!

3. AIRPORT CAMPING!

Now this is one that is definitely outside the box when it comes to camping. We learned this easy and valuable way of visiting cities when we attended an event in Utah a few years ago. Then, we had reservations at the event hotel but our pickup camper wouldn’t fit in their parking garage, so we parked at the airport, used the shuttle and slept in the hotel for 3 nights. 

LIGHTBULB MOMENT! Why are we paying $199 a night when we could go back to our camper every evening and pay only $10 a night for parking?

Since then, we have parked and camped at LAX in Los Angeles, at O’Hare in Chicago and at the San Diego airport. We hop on the shuttles and city transit systems to get wherever we want to go. The bonus – we sleep in our own bed every night and pay a minimal fee for Economy parking and transit services. Plus, we don’t have to drive our camper in horrendous city traffic.

Camping at the LAX economy lot is a thrill for us! We watch the huge jets come in right over our heads. The rumble is amazing, the constant stream of jets is astonishing. How can we sleep with all that noise? We just do. We’re safe as security patrols the area regularly. We’re comfortable because we’re sleeping in our own bed. It’s an incredible hack for free camping!

 

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.80″][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.80″ text_font_size=”16px” inline_fonts=”Francois One”]

WHAT ABOUT SHOWERING?

First, you need to know that we converted the shower in our camper to storage. If your RV has a shower, you won’t have to be concerned about this.

You’re going to love our solution. It’s brilliant! We are hippies, but not so much dirty hippies,thanks to this amazing fix to our non-existent shower!

Here’s what we did. We got a membership at Planet Fitness. The “Black Card” membership which I pay $19.95 a month for allows me to take a guest (Bruce) to any Planet Fitness facility in the country. With over 1400 clubs, it’s easy to find a location on our road trip travels using their app. Plus, they are open 24/7!

We’ve had this membership for nearly a year now and have yet to work out! We just shower there. Maybe one day, we’ll actually work out – ha ha!  Flying J has showers available, but only if you are a commercial truck drive, so this solution at Planet Fitness has been perfect for us.

With that said, in between the Planet Fitness stops, we are quite comfortable with sponge baths and baby wipes!

 

WHERE DO WE DUMP OUR SH*T?

As explained earlier, we usually find a Flying J for this necessary but yucky job. The discount we get there makes it worthwhile to bypass Love’s where the fee is anywhere from $10-$15.

We also found that in Iowa and South Dakota, the rest stops provide FREE dump stations! That was such a great service we wish every state would offer RVers.

Now for the grim reality. Sometimes, we are miles or days away from a dump station and the tank starts getting dangerously full.  I have to thank my Grandma Day for guiding me to use coffee cans or jugs for the excess. (she always kept a pee can in the car.)  I started using a “pee can” when we lived in a tent for one summer and were not close to the campground bathroom. Ever since we hit the road in 2013, I’ve kept them handy.

Yep! Lived in a tent in 2009! Want to read the full story of how our dream began when we got rid of everything and moved into a tent? Get my book “RV LIVING: The Naked Hippies Way.

HOW DO WE GET MAIL?

This is only applicable to full time RVers. We don’t really need an every day delivery of all that usual junk mail. We pay bills online and have online banking services. But, occasionally, we do need to receive mail.

For that, we have a mail service from Escapees which forwards our mail to whatever address we give them. When we know we’re going to be at a friend’s or family member’s home for a visit, we call to have them send our mail there.

 

HOW DO WE GET BY WITHOUT PLUGGING INTO ELECTRICITY?

Until we figured out how to do this in order to charge our laptops and phones, we had to pay for campgrounds. Many RVers have generators for this purpose. Our pickup camper has no extra room for even the smallest generator. We had to figure out something else that would work, and we did.

We have an inverter that is now wired to our truck battery. Our truck has become our generator. We are able to charge our devices as we travel and also when we are parked. Sometimes we run the truck, sometimes we just run the inverter off the battery. This has been the last piece of the puzzle to fall into place so that we can truly camp for free.

Without electricity, our coffee maker sits idle but we have an antique drip-o-lator that makes awesome coffee using the gas stove in our camper.

 

WHAT ABOUT FLAT TIRES AND BREAKDOWNS?

We’ve had 3 blowouts on this trip, plus we had to be towed over the mountains in Arizona when our truck lost power and couldn’t make the steep climbs. We’ve been rescued many times by Good Sam’s Roadside Assistance. Of all the expenses we have, this one is vital to our peace of mind.

You can imagine how difficult (as well as humorous) it would be for Bruce and me to tackle changing a tire on the pickup when the camper is weighing it down. Not gonna happen. Good Sam’s Roadside Assistance has always provided quick and efficient service, sometimes above and beyond the limits of their rules and regulations.

There you have it – The Naked Hippies Way for free camping.

 

It ain’t always pretty and definitely not always comfortable, but we’re free. We’re traveling this gorgeous country now, not waiting for everything to be pristine and top of the line.

We also have the immense blessing of visiting friends and family as we travel. Their hospitality showers us with the luxury of showers, laundry, electricity and meals. But, as the open road continually calls us, we stay to enjoy the conversations and luxury, but eventually, the itch to get moving has to be scratched.

Our next free camping adventure is taking us to Quartzsite, Arizona where thousands of RVers gather for the winter on hundreds and hundreds of acres on BLM land. We will pay for a long-term pass which gives us camping from September to April for $180. With that pass, we’ll have access to a dump station, water and trash disposal.

You might have your own hacks for camping for free! We’d love to hear them. Leave a comment below and we’ll let you know if we try it.

Camping For FREE – We Proved It Can Be Done

[et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ custom_padding=”1px|0px|0px|0px”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.78″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.78″ text_font_size=”16px”]

 Camping for free was our goal when we set out on the open road in April. 

We have traveled nearly 11,000 miles through 19 states in our Big Foot pickup camper – and we have not paid for one night of camping!

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.47″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” _i=”1″ _address=”0.1″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_image src=”https://nakedhippiesroadtrip.us/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2017-Roadtrip-Map.Blue_.jpg” _builder_version=”3.0.78″][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”27px|0px|5px|0px” _builder_version=”3.0.78″][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.78″ text_font_size=”16px”]

It was a challenge we set for ourselves to see if we were truly set up to be self-sufficient. That was the necessary obstacle to overcome to begin camping for free.

We proved we can do it! In a few days, we are heading to Quartzsite, Arizona where we won’t have electricity to charge our laptops and phones. We’ll have to drive a mile or two every week to dump our black tank, toss our trash in a dumpster and refill our water containers. Our journey this year proved we can absolutely do this boondocking thing in Quartzsite. 

We’ve been on the Naked Hippies never-ending roadtrip pretty much continuously since 2013. We’re living our dream. How are we able to do this? It’s definitely not because we had a huge savings account or lucked out with an inheritance from a rich relative. No, there’s two reasons:

1. We didn’t wait until we had everything perfect.

If we had waited until we could afford a spiffy RV and had a nest egg of savings to pay for gas and camping and all the other expenses of the road, we would still be sitting still in Missouri (and shoveling snow in the winter!)

Instead, we were open to opportunities and blessings that came our way; and mosttof all, just took a huge flippin’ leap of faith believing that everything would be okay, that we would be safe, and that the Universe would provide what we needed. That’s exactly what happened, and it still is happening.

Read the full story of how we began to live our dream – RV LIVING: The Naked Hippies Way: Live Your Dreams, Don’t Wait for “Someday”

2. We are comfortable being uncomfortable

This is really why most people aren’t living their dreams. Most people desire to do something different than they are now, to be free to live life on their own terms … but not if it requires being uncomfortable.

It’s an old Dodge Ram pickup with an even older camper on it. Things wear out. Stuff quits working. We either find a work-around solution or fix it. Most of the time we choose the work-around because sinking a lot of money into something that will have no resell value seems pointless.

So we are comfortable using duct tape and bungee cords to hold things in place; comfortable using coffee cans when the black tank is full and we’re nowhere near a dump station; comfortable making coffee with an antique drip-o-lator on the gas stove because the electric coffee maker requires too many amps to use the inverter; and comfortable with sponge baths instead of daily showers.

The mother of all “get-out-of-your-comfort-zone” is to on occasions be comfortable sleeping at WalMart and truck stops where diesels rumble all night and the lights on the parking lot make it so bright we can almost read a book at night. It’s definitely camping for free and sometimes, all we need a place to sleep for one night before heading on to the more picturesque free campsites we find

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.78″][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_image src=”https://nakedhippiesroadtrip.us/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10369209_10204036656857405_4647732434285209277_n.jpg” _builder_version=”3.0.78″][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”27px|0px|0px|0px” _builder_version=”3.0.78″][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.78″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.78″ text_font_size=”16px”]

Comfortable, too, when one by one, our tires blew out; when our truck lost power and we had to be towed over the mountains in Arizona; when every mechanic we talked to had a different idea about the truck issue; and when a passing car honked to let us know our wonky back door had flown open again.

Good grief! I’m getting a bit grumpy writing about all that uncomfortableness … but then, I remember.

I remember sinking my feet in the sand at Santa Monica beach, gasping in awe at the bluebonnets and Hamilton Pool in Texas; seeing the magnificent and grand Badlands, viewing the battlefield at Little Big Horn, driving through the Black Hills and standing under the Presidents at Mount Rushmore …

stepping in the headwaters of the Missouri River in Montana, the headwaters of the Mississippi River in Minnesota and Lake Superior, Lake Michigan and Lake Huron; crossing the five mile Mackinac Bridge; spectacular mountaintop camping in Colorado; touching the border of Canada; tasting pasties for the first time; the mountains, the canyons, the forests, the wide open spaces …

and I say to myself, “It’s worth it all!”

Most of all, I remember all the friends and family we were able to visit. We had a joyous family wedding in Missouri that brought so many family members I hadn’t seen in years; we met in person for the first time many of our dear Facebook friends; we reunited with friends whom we always make sure we stop to see when passing through; and I had days instead of just a couple of hours of uninterrupted, loving and deep conversations with my sisters for the first time in my life.

It’s the friends and family who offer a parking space and an extension cord who have made our journey of 11,000 miles easier. Who have excitedly welcomed us saying, “Come … stay … shower … do laundry!” Who load us up with movies and books, garden produce, boudin, roasted green chilis edible cookie dough and garden produce. Who provide a free massage, a home-cooked meal of fresh crappie or stew, a boat ride and a campfire.

Could we have done all these miles without their gracious hospitality? Of course, but we’ve learned to never turn down these kind of invitations, these gifts. The time we spend on the deck, around the kitchen table, at a restaurant, or in the backyard or living rooms of our friends and family is a treasure that we cherish.

Everything ahead is unknown. We’ve never camped at Quartzsite with the massive number of RVers who come there every year. We know a little of what to expect, but not a lot. But this we do know for sure – whatever comes up, whatever uncomfortable issues we have – we’ll figure it out and have an amazing experience. That’s The Naked Hippies Way!
