Some progress pics of the green bean! The gutting has taken sooo much longer then I expected. But doing this solo makes it a bit challenging. And just working on it from time to time when I have it and energy. Which can be hard to have at the same time these days 😅 but the old is at the top and the newest pics taken today (8/28/23) are at the bottom. I’m still super excited about this project! The old wood cook stove I got the other day was a project where I bit off more then I could chew. It was sadly too big for the rv. But I still plan on putting in a wood stove. Just a small one made for small spaces.

Several Reasons to Replace Your RV's Windshield

Keyword- RV Windshield Replacement

Topic- Several Reasons to Replace Your RV's Windshield

Ensuring your RV's windows are in excellent shape is crucial for a fun and secure family trip. Keep your RV safe and functional by promptly replacing damaged or defective windows. You can need an RV window replacement service for several reasons besides the obvious windscreen shatters. You can stay on top of the required RV Windshield Replacement and maintain the smooth operation of your RV by watching for these signals.

Increasing Cracks

Even while a minor fracture might not seem to be much of a cause for alarm, those cracks can spread and end up endangering the structural integrity of your RV. The RV's vibration while in operation could cause window fractures to spread. Contact an auto glass provider for a qualified check when you see a crack in your RV's windscreen or side windows.

Glass shards

Similar to cracks, chips are a reliable sign that the windows of your RV are past their prime. Depending on the size and position of the chip, you can fix the flaw quickly. To the point where you will need replacement windows, the chip might develop and worsen if ignored for an extended period.

Amount of Mould

Mold may appear on the car windows when you start your RV for the first time in a few months. Sedentary RVs frequently accumulate condensation; when there is no airflow, that condensation can lead to mold growth. A window replacement service is required since mold is quite dangerous to your health and your family's health.

View Obscured

An RV Windshield Replacement service is necessary when the windscreen of your RV is so cracked that it obstructs the driver's vision. Without good vision, there is a greater chance of a collision, which puts the driver and all passengers in danger. Replace the cracked windscreen on your RV immediately to avoid risking your safety.

Wind Damage

Traveling is a typical aspect of RV ownership, and for those who decide to hit the road in the winter, there is always a chance of storm damage due to wind, hail, and snowstorms. Heavy collections of snow and ice can put additional strain on the window system and additional pressure on the windscreen, which could lead to structural damage.

The cold can also be a concern if the wiper blades have ice layers around them since when they are turned on, they could scratch the glass.

Discoloration

Discoloration on the glass is another potential hazard because it could be a sign that the RV glass or the sealant has broken. As the material is exposed to UV rays, staining or detecting yellow or white patches may happen. Although it may be cured with various methods, replacement is usually the best choice because it often takes place over a long period.

Clear Glass

A whirling appearance brought on by contaminants and aging indicates that your windscreen might need to be replaced. And to make matters even worse, if the glass already has chips, dirt can get trapped in the crevices over time, causing the marks to get worse with each wiper application. In this case, replacement is not necessarily required; instead, spending the time to mend it can reduce the chance that the glass will become a distraction and help keep your RV's value higher.

Fluctuations in temperature

There is always a possibility that the windscreen could get damaged by temperature changes if you are traveling south for the winter. The glass in your RV will be less durable and more brittle if it has been prolonged exposure to cold temperatures. The risk is increased when incorrect snow and ice removal techniques are used in conjunction with this.

Additionally, the chance of the windscreen breaking increases if it is left in a hot environment for a long time while the air conditioner is running at full blast. So it is advised that you consult an expert to assess the hazards associated with your RV Windshield Replacement and keep you safe.

These are the current conditions of our 2019 Forest River Wildwood 30KQBSS. Although as you can see, everything is in really good conditions, it is not my personal style. I understand that the farmhouse and boho style are currently in, but that is just not me. Instead, I’ve decided to redecorate in “my style,” which I like to describe as comfortable luxury glam or luxe glam for short. I will be posting updates of the updates, changes, and remodeling that take place on the Wanderlust!

Installing Solar Panels in RVs: Understanding Different Types for Optimal Energy Efficiency

If you're an avid RV enthusiast or a full-time traveler, you know the importance of having a reliable power source. RV solar panels have become a popular solution for providing eco-friendly and sustainable electricity. With advancements in solar technology, different types of solar panels are available for RVs, each with unique benefits and considerations. 

In this blog, we'll explore the various types of RV solar panels, helping you decide how to install solar panels on RVs.

Monocrystalline Solar Panels

Monocrystalline solar panels are at the forefront of solar technology and are currently the most efficient panels on the market. They are crafted from a single piece of pure silicon crystal, giving them a distinctive square shape with chiseled corners. 

The key advantages of monocrystalline solar panels are:

a) High Efficiency

Monocrystalline panels boast excellent efficiency in converting sunlight into solar energy. This means they can generate more power in a smaller space, making them ideal for RVs with limited rooftop real estate. So, to install solar panels in an RV, focus on multiple options before moving ahead.

b) Compact Size

Due to their higher efficiency, monocrystalline panels are relatively smaller and more compact than other types. This primarily benefits RV owners with limited roof space to mount solar panels.

c) Long Lifespan

Monocrystalline panels tend to have the longest lifespan compared to other types. Their durability and efficiency make them a reliable long-term investment.

However, the premium performance of monocrystalline solar panels comes at a higher cost. The production process is more complex and time-consuming, translating into a higher price tag. Nonetheless, many RV owners consider the benefits of monocrystalline panels well worth the investment.

Polycrystalline Solar Panels

Polycrystalline solar panels are another popular option for RV owners seeking to harness solar energy. Instead of being made from a single silicon crystal, polycrystalline panels combine multiple silicon fragments. 

While they are slightly less efficient than monocrystalline panels, they offer several advantages:

a) Cost-Effectiveness

Polycrystalline panels are less expensive to produce, making them a more budget-friendly option for RVers looking to go solar without breaking the bank.

b) Better Low-Light Performance

These panels perform relatively well in adverse conditions, such as low light or when the sun is not directly angled at the solar panels. This can be advantageous during overcast days or when parked under partial shade.

c) Suitable for Larger RVs

If you have a larger RV with ample roof space, the slightly larger size of polycrystalline panels may be a good option. Their lower cost and reasonable efficiency make them a practical choice.

Amorphous Solar Panels

Amorphous solar panels, or thin-film solar panels, are a different breed of solar technology. They are made from non-crystalline silicon placed on top of a glass, metal, or plastic substrate. 

The key benefits of amorphous solar panels include:

a) Flexibility

Amorphous panels are thin and flexible, allowing them to bend and conform to different surfaces. This flexibility makes them easier to install on curved or irregular RV surfaces. The flexibility of amorphous solar panels is one of their standout features, setting them apart from traditional crystalline solar panels. Amorphous panels are thin and pliable, so they can easily bend and conform to various surfaces, including curved or irregular RV roofs.

b) Lightweight

These panels are lighter than their crystalline counterparts, making them easier to transport and mount on the RV roof. The lightweight nature of amorphous solar panels is one of their key advantages, making them a popular choice among RV owners seeking to harness solar energy. Unlike their crystalline counterparts, which can be relatively heavy, amorphous panels offer a significant weight reduction, enhancing their ease of transport and installation on RV roofs.

c) Cost-Effective

Amorphous solar panels are the most affordable option among the three types. They can be a viable choice if you're on a tight budget and have more space on your RV's roof.

However, amorphous solar panels generally have lower efficiency compared to crystalline panels. This means you need a larger surface area to generate the same amount of power, which could be challenging for smaller RVs with limited space.

Choosing the Right Solar Panel for Your RV

Several factors come into play when selecting the ideal solar panel for your RV. These include your budget, available roof space, energy consumption, and desired efficiency. Additionally, it's essential to consider the climate and typical weather conditions you'll encounter during your travels.

If you need to decide which solar panel type suits your needs best, consulting with a professional RV solar installation service can provide valuable guidance and expertise. They can assess your RV's specifications and energy requirements to recommend the most suitable solar panel solution.

Concluding Comments

Installing solar panels on your RV can be a game-changer, providing you with a clean and renewable power source during your journeys. Understanding the differences between monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and amorphous solar panels will help you decide when to choose the proper setup for your RV. Consider efficiency, cost, and available space to select the optimal solar panel type that aligns with your energy needs and budget. 

With the right solar panel system in place, you can enjoy the freedom of the open road without worrying about power constraints.

To add to the anon about the guys not seeming to care anymore, I did meet them at a show over the summer and it sort of felt...stiff and bland, I guess would be the best way to put it. Alex was so so nice since I was so so shy. He stepped up first and obviously took the lead. Jack was too busy grabbing a drink from someone. Zack and Rian were...there? I made them all laugh, but I don't remember what I said. Alex no way wanted to touch anyone. No one. At all. No hugs. Nothing. I brushed against his arm and that was about it. No other hugs. No one wanted to be personal, ask a name, say thank you, nothing. Overall, I'm saying they were nice, super nice. But the entire vibe was really giving conveyer belt and the guys were indifferent to being there. I totally understand being tired or doing the same thing over and over every single day, but I really saw that for what it was. Nice guys reluctantly present.

goddd this so diplomatically well put and disappointing! On one hand, we understand the reluctance to be extra touchy or silly, right? But at the same time you're PAYING decent money to be on that fucking conveyor belt! You're putting pennies towards the farm ~tenant house remodel and gas guzzling rv trips for what? Even them at their best is a quick few seconds of polite interaction and not the long lost potential of chatty, personal moment of possibility to feel real or normal. A cute pic might be worth it to a lot dopes but people paying for this stuff keeps telling them it's ok and even on their best behavior it shouldn't be. Harking back to the prev, I guess pondering if they care is already a terrible measurement because what they used to be so fucking good at was making the business of it all feel personal, and now even if they really do care, the business structure is too apparent to feel personal. No amount of money is giving you what was free 8 years ago.

#when people go a free signing and complain I'm like ehhh this is their job and they should be decent at it but mostly whatever #I think had I gone full in their face familiar fan 1000 years ago I would feel silly as hell paying to say Hi and get a pic with them #if you'd built a friendly rapport over years and years what's available now at the price it is just wouldn't feel right #and obviously I know people do it. but I wish they wouldn't. going to a ton of shows is cool fully backed! the perks? girl no #and if you want to be in the front go to a show with me and I'll get ya there by song 3 for the low price of a titos soda 😘 #answered ask #atl band #look it's bad enough Lisa has a job that caters to Rich People Only we aren't fucking letting Alex off the hook that easy!

Renovation Review 9/2022

My credit card is finally paid off. Oh thank god.

Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has commissioned me, bought merch, or donated during this hectic time! My car still needs further repairs but the situation isn’t as urgent right now. It’s limping along with shitty brakes, but it at least runs.

If you’d still like to help, here’s some links to do so:

We now have all the tools we need to maintain the yard and finish cleaning up the really overgrown parts. We’ve done a little work on the house itself, but we ran out of time and money (plus we couldn’t find somewhere for mom to stay while we do construction) so that will be next year’s project.

Autumn is fast approaching, but I feel so good about all that we accomplished since we moved here back in March. I got SO MUCH MORE done than I expected, and I couldn’t have done it without your help. Sincerely, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Here’s what was done since March:

Spent 2 months aggressively researching RVs and browsing local inventories.

Put a down payment on an RV to live in until the house is in a livable state.

Cleaned out most of the hoard in the house.

Cleaned out almost the entire hoard in the yard.

Had several box trucks full of junk hauled away, including over FIFTEEN lawnmowers(!!!)

Cleared and burned several dumpsters worth of yard waste that had overtaken the yard and exterior.

Cut down 3 dead, leaning trees that were looming over the RV.

Remodeled an old cabin on the property to make it livable, installed electricity.

Upgraded electrical box in the house to accommodate RV.

Installed a walking path between the house and cabin (not a vanity project--original path was muddy and dangerous)

Got car fixed so it at least drives again.

Cut down a 15ft tall invasive knotweed forest, dug up hundreds of massive rhizomes, raked up and burned several years’ worth of dead canes, terraformed the land to be flat and planted grass over it, transforming the forest into a lawn within just a few months. (This was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. holy shit it was BAD, and it’s still not 100% done with cleanup yet...but the invasion is under control now at least.)

Split at least a hundred giant log rounds that were laying all over the property. Cleaned up several big fallen trees that had been laying in the yard for years. (This was also insanely difficult, almost as bad as the knotweed)

Pruned several living trees that had grown out of control. (Mostly hollies, which are a thorny, bee-infested pain in the ass to work with)

Removed and burned a MASSIVE wisteria bush that had choked out and killed a few full-grown trees and wrapped itself around a power pole. Seriously, this thing was a forest in itself. It took 5 people armed with 4 chainsaws and a manlift an entire day to cut down.

Acquired $2000 worth of tools.

Tore the crappy siding off the greenhouse and replaced it to convert it into a shed where we can store the tools.

Removed a bunch of unnecessary and dangerous rusty barbed wire fencing.

Rehomed mom’s dangerous, out-of-control pitbull. (It tore mom’s leg open and sent her to the hospital, bit me three times and bit my boyfriend twice before she got the hint and let it go, but she finally did, thank christ...)

Reclaimed about a half-acre of property from invasive blackberry bushes.

Used bucket traps to get a mouse infestation under control. (Very successful btw, highly recommend this type of trap)

Cleaned up a pile of black garbage bags FILLED with beer cans and HUMAN FECES (I’m not fucking kidding) that my mom’s alcoholic tenant left there. They had a toilet. Why didn’t he use it? Not a fucking clue, my dudes. The only job worse than the knotweed genocide was raking and shoveling all this human shit into new bags. There was years’ worth of an alcoholic’s poop. I had to spread sawdust to soak up the rest of the crap, bag up a few inches of soil as well, then put down new soil and plant grass on it. The good news is: It’s all done, there’s no smell left behind, and the grass came in beautifully. The bad news is: It mentally scarred me for life.

Converted a big ugly stump into a cute flower garden.

Learned a LOT about plants, animals, tools, homesteading, carpentry, and so much more. Became a smarter and way more capable person.

A bunch of other random minutia.

This has been a back-breaking and emotionally difficult experience, to say the least. This property was my childhood home, and seeing it in such a horrid state broke my heart. But I feel like we’re slowly but surely getting it back into order. I’m kind of disappointed that we didn’t get the house fixed as much as I wanted, but we did clean up most of the hoard inside, which improved my mom’s quality of life immensely. She STILL thanks me almost every day, I know it made a huge difference in her daily life. We still plan on making some emergency repairs to the back part of the house before late autumn, just because the floor is sinking and it’s an actual safety hazard.

Here’s what I’d like to get done before the wet/cold season hits:

Install PEX piping to the RV to reduce freezing and other issues.

Install skirting around the RV for insulation.

Jack up the back of the house and install cinderblocks under the floor to keep it stable, at least temporarily. We will eventually tear that whole part of the house off, but there’s other work that needs to be done before we can start demolition. We can’t demo until next summer anyway.

Finish the pathway between the cabin and house. This isn’t super urgent, but it’s going to get muddy and slippery again if we don’t install gravel before the rains come.

Buy a leaf blower. (I know, I know, everyone hates these, but the one I want is electric. No gas fumes and it’s pretty quiet.)

Build or buy an actual shed to store the tools in. The greenhouse is a plastic piece of shit that will fall apart under a few inches of snow. We took some temporary measures to reinforce it against autumn weather, but I’m doubtful about winter.

Get the brakes on my car fixed.

I think that’s it. The rest is long-term future stuff, like tearing down and rebuilding the garage, rebuilding the cabin (it’s livable for now but the foundation is failing), clearing more blackberries, demolishing the back of the house and remodeling the front, and so on. We’ll get there eventually.

Again, I can’t thank you guys enough. Things are going to slow down as the weather gets wetter and colder, but I’ll continue to keep you up to date as much as I can.

An armed man shot and killed by police in Texas last week had been arrested on assault and weapons charges just two days prior, authorities said.

Darrel Glen Hood, 32, was identified by the medical examiner as the man shot and killed by Richland Hills police officers on Friday. 

Hood was arrested on Wednesday for assault and weapons charges. He bonded out of jail just after midnight Friday morning, FOX 4 News Dallas reports.  

By that afternoon, he was allegedly shooting a firearm in the street. He raised and pointed what was identified as a semi-automatic rifle at the officers, a news release said. 

TEXAS RANCHER MOVES FAMILY TO LOUISIANA AFTER MIGRANT INCIDENTS, SAYS BIDEN HAS 'DESTABILIZED THE BORDER'

People who live in the Fort Worth suburb the incident happened described the chaos. 

"Like a man with no shirt, no shoes, running up the street firing with a firing arm," neighbor Stacy Reddy said.

A records search into Hood's criminal history by the local Fox station revealed some misdemeanors and credit card fraud.

Fort Worth police were the agency who had arrested him two days prior for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, unlawful carrying of a firearm and marijuana possession.

"Neighbors tell FOX 4 that Hood lived in an RV in the driveway of a newly remodeled home. Some say he had been displaying odd behavior lately," the TV station reports.

"I know he did walk around several times at night wearing a mask," Reddy, the neighborhood watch block captain, said. "I wish he had made better choices."

No other injuries were reported, and no officers were injured in this incident. 

The Texas Rangers are handling the officer-involved shooting investigation.

((Also it's fuckin munday or sth so have a look at what I've been doing the past few months...

((still living in an rv for the time being, but the cabin has gone from looking like picture 1 in october to looking like picture 4 today. there is running hot water in the sink! and it drains into the actual goddamn drain, not into a bucket!

I did have help with the cementboard/drywall hanging, but all the plumbing, a lot of the electrical, all the insulation, the wall mudding/texturing/taping, the painting, and even the figuring out how to make a poorly-engineered 'floating' vanity stable after it fell off the wall once and tried to give me a black eye (spoiler: add some fuckin legs) has been me, learning as I go, which is why I have m!as from last year that still need art that I haven't gotten to yet.....................

anyway i'm still alive and kicking, tav is alive, I'm just desperately ready to be out of an rv and into the tiny-house even though it's a long ways out still. I'm sure there will be more pictures as I get closer to finishing things up to a 'move-in ready' state.... right now most of it is just an embarrassment of building supplies and loose parts and scraps piled everywhere. also if someone ever tells you that construction/remodeling/plumbing/electrical and other tradework is too hard or too complicated or just not possible for you to do? I youtubed literally everything one step at a time and figured it out with zero experience.))
