The U.N.'s Agenda 21 got it's start in the '70s. It was voted on and accepted in 1992 by the member Nations of the U.N. Within the Agenda one of the clauses revolves around "the developmental and environmental objectives which requires a conservation of biodiversity, watershed protection...

I constantly suggest to friends and family to practice as if you were a 1750's longhunter out in the wilderness for awhile.

Have done this many times and actually like doing it and practicing the skill.

I'll have to double check, but I think it's in Main or upstate NY, and I want to say it'sthe Winter Romp. That area of the country - New England, the Ohio Valley and Mid-Atlantic - are the main areas for most of the biggest events. Several are in Pennsylvania, but I'm not aware of any going on...

Kanda sorta related.... Every year there is a Land Rover event hosted by a Rover club in the North Eastern US. Everyone gets together and camps on private property. Each year one of the main guys who helped plan the events would purposely show up around 2 or 3 in the morning. He would drive...

Actually there are several here in Kansa, but most are for motorcycles, quads and such. The one you might be thinking of is probably 'Kansas Rocks Recreation Park' in Mapleton, Kansas. I wouldn't mind seeing Disney, but not with the crowds. Are they even still allowed to have the big jeep...

I hear ya... I'm just south of Wichita and there sure isn't a lot of interest. The is one jeep group, with members in my area, but they only go to places like Moab as a group, they don't seem to do anything around here. There is a group up near Kansas City that travels the Flint Hills...

I've yet to encounter anyone either.

Way back in the day, when SWMBO and I hadn't even been married 5 years yet, we were in desperate need to get away during a 3-day weekend. All of our plans were dashed, yet at the very last minute we were able to go. Unfortunately the lake we were wanting to go to was full (we had given up our...

The "look at me - look at me" crowd.

And that's why we haven't gone to "campgrounds" in over 20 years.

Father-n-law was on one of engineering crews that evaluated those batteries. He just shakes his head when hears people pushing that EV are the way to go right now.

You should look into the fire hazards and dangers of electric cars. It's got a lot of fire departments, especially small town ones, worried.

Thought I'd share the following link with all y'all. These books were written by a true overlander. She is a Land Rover enthusiast and even helped me when it came to buying my Rover. She has been a tremendous help and resource when it's come to maintenance and mechanics. She has written two...

IIRC, the batteries replacement cost for that thing will be starting around $15K. A friend has a KIA hybrid; the replacement cost for the big battery is more than the car's resale price.
