His posts were bordering on narcissistic (had to look that one up to stay politicaly correct) and long winded. Thanks! I'm guessing it's not an uncommon response.

mptjelgin Posted January 7, 2020 Report Share Posted January 7, 2020 Well it looks like Groundhog went to the trouble to edit all of his posts to "not validated'. Sort of took his ball and went home... Not sure what he expected with his "I am the most expert boondocker (with a travel trailer, less than 30', no couch, only one A/C)" approach, but apparently he didn't find it here.

sandsys Posted January 8, 2020 Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 4 hours ago, 2gypsies said: Who is IYQ? Lee Horner, better known as IYQ was a member of the class of 2008. It was his second go around at fulltiming the first one being back in the 1970s. He was an amazing man and I miss him. IYQ was his handle on this forum so you might be able to search on posts from him to get a feel for what a fun guy he was. Otherwise you can go read old posts from the class of 2008 to see what a great bunch we were before so many of us slowed down and/or settled down.

2gypsies Posted January 8, 2020 Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 Aarrg..... I can't stand all these abbreviations used today. It's not that difficult to write it out.

sandsys Posted January 8, 2020 Report Share Posted January 8, 2020 I keep reading the header on this thread, "Boondockers OTG...that makes you one?" In spite of the length of this thread the answer is simple--spending at least one night with no hookups. That's all "of the grid" actually means--no hookups. Our daughter's house is off the grid with a well and septic tank and solar power. Our former cabin in the woods had no water nor septic but it had an electrical hookup; thus, not off the grid in spite of being out in the woods.

It's not that difficult to write it out. Also where did I miss the dollar sign moving to after the numbers? I write $1800. But I see 1800$ from a lot of people. Did I miss something with the movement of the dollar sign?
