As I look around my home, I look at all my books. I love reading and have been one of those people that never throws a book out. I am thinking that once on the road with space a premium I will not have room to keep books. Figured that a kindle pad or something similar would be the way to go. How do others do this....

Back at Greens for the night and loving it. Have just had a most excellent evening with Nu One and Shady n Me at Greens Lake. A magnificent star filled evening around an excellent fire. Thank you Michael and Norma for the company. Off tomorrow but am very tempted to linger longer when I return from SA.

We shop in those towns use their laundromat, snack bars, suoermarkets pubs.etc caravan parks are not the only business in towns to be considered. I am sure other solos have com...
