Started fulltiming in June-See my new website

Hi introducing myself finally, I'm Dave & sold my house, picked up a '58 Caravanner started fulltiming here in Atlanta. It was a hot summer & now cold winter. Learned much from this site along the way.

Wanted to share a new website I've setup that chronicles everything so far. Had to manually extract it all from my personal facebook page, but it's all there with lots of pics.

180 sq/ft - My Journey to a Simpler & Sustainable Life

Hope you enjoy it, it's been an adventure so far...

cheers
dave

Another congratulations Dave! Each time I read of another fulltimer, I can't help but think there's a new paradigm for the American Dream.

Electric unicycler??? I assume you hold the battery in your hands? Amazing what one can learn from this forum. Stay warm this winter, and safe travels next year. jon

I went to your web site and was wondering how I can get to the beginning without pressing the back button at the end of the page

SURE, the HOME button at the top should take you to the beginning, also if you go into a post there should be a dropdown and you can jump to different months. I know it's not ideal yet, but i think i'll add a menu button on top to be able to jump to different months too.
