  • Now that the holidays are over, it's time to dive back into adventuring! We end 2023 and begin the new year with a boondocking trip to southern Arizona. Enjoy this video of me setting up my minivan camper conversion for a stint of off-grid living.

    The outdoor solar lights will help keep mice away too 😊

    I have had the inflatable Luci light for years and love it. I just throw it on my truck dash while driving and it's recharged by the time I get to camp.

    Cut a sponge up into 6 or 8 pieces. Then get Pine Sol concentrate put it into a small jar. Add sponge, then place 1on the inside part of the tires plus 2 or 3 on engine. No Mice or other wildlife will go anywhere near your vehicle. Don't forget to return them to the jar when done. Just refill as needed.

      My natural repellent has worked for 3 years. I've never had a problem. 😊

    • @joanies6778

      It's a good cheap alternative to use a sponge soaked in it, plus I would think more concentrated... hadn't thought of that, but I like it. 🤗 Great tip. Ammonia also works to repel rodents, snakes, and bears, so I have read.

    I have a 12v throw blanket. I put it under my sheet and warm up my bed. It makes falling asleep much easier.

    The Luci lights are awesome.If you want some lighting at night like a night light leave on the lowest setting and it will last for two nights.
