    I grew up in a church, Knew this Larry Norman song, found it 5 years ago and listened to once in a while. Then I saw it on a Joe Rogan clip the other day.. thought it was cool that he played it. I looked up on YT and there was a new video to the song with Janis Joplin. Very cool.
    Now I see it here :) what a trip. I always pictured some hard alcoholic in a bar when listening to it when I was a kid.

    Hey guys, we noticed you have a wire hanging down from the roof next to your tent section of your Northstar. We have the same camper and had the same issue, called American camper in Orange County CA. There’s some plastic clip material (I think it comes in 6 foot lengths, and you can cut whatever you need and it clips up inside and hold your wires up that go to your running lights) up inside there that gets broken and the wires fall down. Give them a call and see if you can have some drop shipped wherever you are going to be. You’ll need a ladder. You also may want to get some Nite eyes #1 S clips in stainless steel for your roof latches.
    Dang, I hope we run into you characters on the trail!! Bring your guitar!

      @@CandEAdventures Ugh! I bought our Northstar, and wondered what that gooey mess was up there. Gorilla Tape! Took me a month of Sundays to get it all out of there. The "clips" are long plastic strips designed to hold the wires up and out of the way. They're cheap. The camper dealership just gave us a few 6' runs of them for free. Whatever you do, don't let the tape (if it's duct tape) sit too long in the sun. Smarty pants like you two can do it, no problem.

    Hey Guys!!! My apologies I've been MIA for a couple of weeks, a very good friend of mine had a sudden heart attack and passed away. His death was so sudden and caught most of us so off guard that it's been a very emotional time, so that's that. So now that I'm back, I see you've left the security of a full time job for the stomach knotting existence of off grid living again, so I guess Kudos!? What are you looking for and where just in case I hear of something jobwise through the grapevine (as a Canadian you know I am in constant observation of the USA as is the job of All Canadians, except that Bieber kid, he's all yours!) Just so you know, I want both of You and Mona to have a Wonderful Christmas and I want to give you a reasonably priced night out, no fast food, no paper plates, no dishes just a decent meal in a place with some atmosphere. So I will be sending you $100.00 US to you later this month before Christmas. I worry about you kids and although I love and respect what you are doing it doesn't stop me from wondering how you guys are actually doing. Sadly, I'm still waiting for my passport (Good Ole Canadian efficiency) otherwise I'd have flown to LA and roped a buddy of mine into ditching work for a few days to drive out and visit you, maybe later next year if all stays stable. Enjoy your stay in that beautiful area, and we'll talk soon. Sending much Love from here to You Guys and Mona!!! - Dave
