Re: A New Blog About Off Grid Living, Building, Gardening &

Green Aura - some aspects of RVing can be green, just depends on how you do it. We spent 18 months travelling around Europe in a motorhome, albeit a smaller one than Mike & Lisa's - mostly solar power with only occasional mains in dull weather, extremely frugal water use (100l tank lasted us 2 ...

I totally agree.
Not only would my blog be as boring as hell, I have no idea where I would find the time to actually write one.
Time is always a problem. I have a lot more time in the winer but when the weather breaks I want to be outside working:)
