Wow, 9 years living in the Van, huh? I lived in mine for four months,
but I was on tour through Alaska and Canada, so I'm not sure that
qualifies.

Now that really is something to write about. Do us all a favor - make
the experience into a book .....joys, failures, challenges, et, etc. I'm
sure it would be a fascinating read, an could be a guide for the rest of
us if we want to go that route for one day or many.

Heck, you could even self publish and keep your publishing costs way
down. Make yourself a pile, man!
