    Hi there Sue Ann, I just stumbled upon your video- yes absolutely Goodmoring & Goodnight text check ins and life 360 is a simple way to stay safe! My youngest son in his late 20’s is a trucker and we share Life360- I plan to be nomadic soon. Recently my sons uncle from his dads side (also a trucker). Was found deceased in his truck. He failed to meet with another Driver at a planned time. Had it not been for the planned meetup - it could have been days before anyone noticed. I will always feel that if he had been regular with a Goodnight check in then his son maybe could have looked on life 360 seen his location and had the truck stop do a wellness check that night and maybe things would have been different. I realize sometimes it’s just our time- but most the time just a simple check in can make all the difference. ❤❤

    Brit here. We've had five cats over the years and two were "trouble" with travelling. We'd often set off somewhere and then I'd notice Scamper in the rear view mirror sitting on the rear parcel shelf. She'd just sneak in when we weren't looking. Maisie was worse - she not only got in our car, but in any car or van she could find a way into. She was forever being brought back when the driver discovered her, but on one occasion she went missing for several days and was eventually found in a cat rescue centre after the driver found her and had no idea where she had come from. We even took Scamper on a narrowboat on the canals for a week when she was quite old; it only took a few hours before she was quite happy and would sit on the roof or the rear deck, even when going through locks. As for the other three, they hate cars.

    Actually, I hadn't noticed. But when people are talking, I usually play card games. I wonder if tanning cream would help. When I was a teen, back in the 60s, there was artificial tanning cream. I tried it and turned orange. So, maybe not that. Orange splotches wouldn't be an improvement. I wouldn't worry about it. It's just you. And you can always cover it with makeup, when you get dolled up for a book launch. :) Jon in rural BC, Canada

    Congrats! I wanted to buy an RV when I turned 65, but my son convinced me a house was safer. Sure, it is, and I have good neighbors and a nice community, but I'm bored out of my brain. I'm not much of a joiner. Why am I not out there? I don't think my two old cats would do well cooped up in my minivan, and I have bad hips and knees. Your Novella looks just the ticket; you can stand up and easily park. :) I am so envious right now. But I'm waiting on test results, and I've got to declutter my house. I hope to meet you on the road one day. We can talk writing until other people's eyes glaze over. :) Jon in rural BC, Canada

    Safety is very site specific nowadays as violent crime and homelessness have increased dramatically. As Sue suggests scan an area. Become an observer. Analyze movement. Most persons today do not have observational skills. They bury their faces in cellphones. All Walmarts are not equal. In Texas Hill Country they are exceptionally safe. On the other hand I recall a Walmart in Fresno, CA where parking lot security was robbed at gunpoint. I have been an RVr for over 20 years. Former law enforcement. Watch instructional videos on personal security. With training carry pepper spray or a gun if legal.
