You didn't live in a van for most of the 60&70? Not in North Africa? Not even in Spain? And not even zipping back and forth across America? I real pity. So much valuable experience lost. ;-} |

X-country zipping in the 60s and 70s, but the experience is different with kids. -- Cheers, Bev ================================================== ============= Never try to extort more than it would cost to have you killed. |

I am planning to attend the June Lake community meeting on July 10 about the June Mt. closing (remember the original topic of this thread?) and I will probably sleep at least one night in the back of my pickup, traveling at night to avoid the daytime desert heat. |

Hey, how about you, Wack Job Waldron, Brain Fried Thompson, Mad Dog Baker, and anybody else who has ever lied to SPD about me (or claimed to have lied, or threatened to lie) have a community meeting in Seattle? I'm sure your cop buddies will attend: after all, you claimed to be closely working with them to get me imprisoned for the rest of my life. Before you admitted you got blown off with a FORM EMAIL, of course. Contact info? How humiliating for all of you. |

I sold my last van (remember that one?) in about 2001. It had a sleeping section AND a living room! Since high school I think I owned 4 vans. Not to mention (just did) 500K miles driving an airport shuttle in SLC and Denver and the cross country tour guiding I did in someone elses van. I probably have more hours sleep (or some version of) in a van than everyone here combined. And most, a great experience. Closest I've gotten to in in Europe is in trains with sleeping compartments. Another good experience. Now though? I don't mind a nice hotel once and awhile. But I'd rather play expensive golf and stay cheap than the other way around. These days cheap can = bedbugs.. Best not to go too cheap. |

It is not that hot up 395, I would just try to hit Mojave early AM, and the worse is over by Big Pine.. *I think I rather drive in heat, than drive up 395 at night. * Death Valley in the summer, well that is different. *It is to me equivalent of driving to the arctic in the winter, given it can be as life threatening. If I leave home the evening iof the 9th, I can get up the Owens Valley before dawn. i plan to go early enough for a natural history sidetrip I have long planned, up the White Mountains east of Big Pine and Bishop to the Ancient Britlecone Pine groves. sleeping will be in the truck as necessary. |

Best not to go too cheap. The cheapest accommodations in the Mammoth/June areaa \re at teh Econolodge in ML. I have stayed there comfortabley many times. However, this trip may end up just being two nights and a day on the road, sleeping asnecessary. |

Cots and those foldy pads from Costco make those impromtu sleeping locations a little easier to deal with these days. But so does my RV! |
