Has there ever been a more difficult time in the last 50 years to even try to maintain profit levels never mind increase them?
Decreasing margins, rising labor and material costs, increased competition, escalating marketing, operational, and administrative expenses, higher product costs and higher taxes are just some of the many profit defeating problems you face.
All of which seemingly make even maintaining profits extremely difficult for many companies and almost impossible for most.
Yes being in business today can be a very complex and daunting process, but I assure you making a great deal more money is actually quite simple.

For the next hour we repeat the technique, with Bolter changing up the sentences, and by the third round I can actually bring myself to repeat after her. By the end, I feel emotionally spent and relieved and, yes, not so weighted with regretmy heart literally feels lighter.
"You weren't your mother's journalist," Bolter says, hugging me goodbye. "You were her daughter." It was a Timothy HuttonJudd Hirsch Ordinary People moment. I love this woman.
"It's working!" I text Joanna, just as Laurie Ann Levin walks in. A tall blond with a whispery voice, she sits down and asks, "What has Joanna told you about me?"
Whoa, maybe she is psychic! Hey, wait a minute. What has Joanna told her about me? Levin rattles off a laundry list, including delicates, of my life's events. In other words, Jo told her everything.
Levin goes over the other practitioners' notes on me and asks, "How do you address the world spiritually?"
"Hello, spiritual world!" Kidding. "I was raised Catholic, but I practice the religion of kindness."
"Have you had spiritual experiences?"
"Watching my mother die was a spiritual experience." Levin nods and says, "Did you get the feeling she was seeing something in the room that you couldn't see?" I shake my head, and I tell her Mom just stared and stared at me and my brothers and sister as if she was memorizing our faces. And then she closed her eyes for the last time.
My stomach growls. In a show of psychic ability Levin asks, "Do you have issues with digestion?" No. "The reason I'm asking is because emotions can go to different parts of the body. So the hurt didn't go to your digestion." My heart hogged it all. Levin instructs me to ask my heart why it chose to take on the hurt: "I'm wondering if your heart is broken." I'm sorry, she's wondering? You don't have to be a psychic to know that losing one's mother is a catastrophic, heartbreaking experience.
I have a question. Can you tell me about my past lives? "Am I upsetting your ancestral line if I bring this through?" she wants to know. I think they can handle it. Levin takes a deep breath and closes her eyes. Thirty seconds pass. "The word Salem came up for me," she says. "I don't know if this is a parable, but there is something about Salem and the way your life was lived."
That night, I meet my gay friend Michael for dinner. I tell him about my former incarnation. "Basically, she said I was a witch."
"Oh, come on!" Michael says. "I could have told you that. I worked for a guy back in the '70s who could read past livesa big Jamaican who lived in caftans. One day we were having lunch at the Russian Tea Room and he reached across the table, put his hand on my third eye, and declared, `You were a sex slave in ancient Egypt!' "
"Well, that explains everything."
"Sweetie, you want some real answers?" Michael says. "Go see Jusstine Kenzer. She's got the gift."
This time, however, I'm going to make sure no one can load the dice. I enlist Liesl to pretend that she wants a psychic reading. That way, when I show up, pretending to be her, Kenzer won't have Googled Holly Millea and read my Beauty Adventures for psychic cheating. But Kenzer's time is tight, so Liesl, now caught in our electronic web, has to send a series of pleading e-mails trying to persuade Kenzer to squeeze her/me in. Suddenly a cranky e-mail arrives: Be at her house in two hours. Liesl calls and tells me I better come clean with Kenzer about our ploy. "It's not like we're running a Food Lion sting operation," she says.
Shaking Kenzer's hand, I mutter, "I'm...not Liesl. I'm Holly. I'm a writer and"
"Stop talking! It doesn't matter what your name is." A grouchy psychic? "Let's get to it. I have a phone client in 45 minutes."
We sit on her love seat, and Kenzer, a buxom, sexy brunette, lowers her head. "I'm going to take a moment and tune in here," she says, closing her eyes. She inhales deeply, shakes her head, agitated, and says, "Are you on an antidepressant? I'm getting TV static."
I just started taking Lexapro.
"Well, at least it's not Prozac. It takes me 15 minutes to get through Prozac."
She closes her eyes again, opens them, and says, "When we're depressed, we're suppressing energy. So now you're taking an antidepressant, which is covering it up, but eventually you're going to want to get to what this is to release it. Otherwise you're just burying it more. People don't want to feel what they're feeling." But you should.
How do you like that? I saw a psychologist who claims to be psychic and ended up with a psychic with the gifts of a psychologist. I like it. At the end of a fruitful, impressive session, I pay Kenzer $200 and ask the burning question: "Was I a witch in Salem?"
"Who cares? It's not about diving into past lives," she says. "The only thing we have control of is right here, right now."
Joanna opens the door to her apartment with a frown. She feels awful about handing over my life story to Laurie Levin. "She invited me to have lunch with her," Jo explains. "And then she kept asking me questions about you and your life. I just wanted to help her help you!" No worries. Going to Moonview actually did help heal me. In fact, I'd rank my time with Patricia Bolter as a spiritual experience.
Valentine runs into the room and gives me one of her hugsanother healing experience. It's her birthday, and since our birthdays are two days apart, we're celebrating mine, too. I bought her books on her favorite subjects: princesses and orphans. (She's obsessed with Anastasia and knows all the words to Annie.) Later, our stomachs aching from cake and ice cream, I put Valentine to bed and introduce her to Pippi Longstocking.... Pippi was sure that her mother was now up in Heaven, watching her little girl through a peephole in the sky, and Pippi often waved up at her and called, "Don't you worry about me. I'll always come out on top."
"That's you!" Valentine says, so excited. Yes. Yes it is. And I like to think my mother can still hear me.

Wow!!! That is all you can say about 2013 Steel
In Motion. Friday was a perfect day and a huge
number of cars were on hand for Friday's
festivities. The weather on Saturday was rainy
but the cars just kept rolling in and with a
break in the weather later that evening, the
track crew was able to dry and prep the track
for some fantastic racing! Gassers, Front Engine
Dragsters, Hot Rods and Customs took turns
blasting down the well prepared 1/8 mile Union
County Dragway. The bands enjoyed large crowds
around the stage as they rocked the house both
Friday and Saturday.
The first Steel In motion pin up contest
took place Saturday evening and was a huge hit
with 23 ladies participating. A big thank you
goes out to all the hardcore participants that
braved a rainy day and made Steel In Motion 2013
There is something we would like to address. We
have heard people saying, I love your rat rod
show. We in no way consider Steel In Motion to
be a rat rod show. Unfortunately, over the last
10 plus years, many old cars not warranting the
term, get labeled as a rat rod. Many times a
Traditional Hot Rod or Traditional Custom will
get that label because the general public and
some old car enthusiast don't understand the
differences. If
a car or truck has chicken wire, left over parts
and tools welded or bolted on, or other items
done for the sole purpose of shock value, then
it will most likely be a rat rod. A
Traditional Hot Rod or Traditional Custom that
was built and styled to closely resemble a
vehicle that was built and or customized in the
40s, 50s or 60s shouldn't get labeled as a rat
rod. Our prominent hot rodding and custom
history of the 40s, 50s and 60s is what Steel In
Motion is proud to honor and celebrate.
Get yourself in gear and get ready for 2014!
New for 2014 will be a
Bicycle Show! Bring out your cool custom or
stock vintage bicycle. We will have a bicycle
corral located near the music stage to show your
bicycle. See a Geargoyle representative at the
Geargoyles tent, next to the music stage to
register your bicycle. No charge to register
your vintage bicycle.
The 2013 Miss Steel in Motion Pin-Up Contest was
awesome so we are proud to announce it will be
back in 2014! The objective is to find a pinup
that exemplifies what it means to be a great
pinup in today's modern world.
This is
not a contest based solely on popularity or
cosmetic appeal, but on that includes inner
beauty as well. This is a contest to showcase
the classic glamour of the 1940's 50's and 60's.
We've all seen the World War II nose art Memphis
Belle and Aluminum Overcast. We've all seen the
black and white glossies of Betty Grable and
Marilyn Monroe. Let's bring the beauty and
glamour back!
The show starts on Friday with the Cackle Crawl
select cars that can make the hair stand up on
the back of your neck will make an idle pass
down the drag strip (by invitation only). There will not be any racing on Friday. Friday
night will include 2 bands and overnight
camping. The gates open at 1pm Friday, May 16th.
On Saturday May 17th, the gates will open at 9
am and grudge racing fun can be enjoyed by all
registered participants. Race your buddy, race
your rival or just cruise your ride down the
strip. There will be no lights, just the drop of
a flag.
Please see the rules page for
information that will apply to taking your ride
down the drag strip.
Show registration is open to
Pre 70
Traditional Hot Rods, Customs, Gassers, Front
Engine Dragsters and any year Custom Chopper or
Bobber. No
Mustangs or Camaros. . No billet wheels or
oversized aftermarket wheels and no directional
for registration and additional information.
Also the show and racing is open to Pre-80
American bodied Funny Cars.
cars must be vintage styled, no 80s/90s or
current age styled drag cars. No cars covered
with current style decals. Decals must be
vintage or vintage styled.
Back again is the Vintage Mini Bike show and
racing. Be a kid again and show your Mini Bike
and take it down the strip. See
for registration and additional information.
Vehicle registration is $15, day of the show
The $15 registration will get the driver and vehicle in both Friday and
Rules for additional
information and to be sure your ride fits the
registration criteria.
Spectators are $10 for a Friday/Saturday combo
or $10 for Saturday alone.
As always there will be great live bands from
the southeast and beyond. See
for bands and stage times.
Free primitive overnight camping. Contained
campfires, grills and above ground fire pits are
welcome. Hot showers are available in the two
main restrooms for those that want to wash away
some grease, grime and funk. Lodging at local
motels is within a short drive for those of you
not into camping. See
Camping & Hotels for
additional information and a list of local
This is a BYOB event. Food, water and soft
drinks will be available during the entire
Geargoyles C.C.

This breakfast casserole filled with cubes of ham and asparagus spears is easy to make, but looks elegant, and would be great for a weekend brunch.
OPEN DAILY 7:30am - 9:30pm
This breakfast casserole filled with cubes of ham and asparagus spears is easy to make, but looks elegant, and would be great for a weekend brunch.
Spicy peppers cool down with a creamy bean and cheese filling in this healthier version of jalapeño poppers.
Grain-, egg-, and dairy-free, with chickpeas as a main ingredient, these cookies are an unlikely internet sensation, and surprisingly decadent!
This is an easy dinner for a steamy summer evening.
Quickly steamed sugar snap peas are tossed in sesame oil and sprinkled with black sesame seeds for a bright and crunchy side dish.
Pork tenderloin and spring vegetables are glazed in a rich, garlicky sauce in this quick meal (after you've chopped all your vegetables, this only takes about 20 minutes!)
Zucchini and ricotta are nestled in a deliciously flaky and soft free-form crust in this straightforward galette. Good served hot out of the oven or at room temperature.
This cool, summer soup was insired by Bulgarian tarator, a soup made with yogurt, cucumbers, dill, garlic, and walnuts. This version skips the yogurt in favor of almond milk for a packed-with-flavor, refreshing dish.
Purple rice cooks up sticky and very slightly sweet. It's delicious in this coconut rice recipe, topped with crispy fried shallots and toasted cashews.
Served warm in winter and fall, or cool or at room temperature in the summer months, this is a people-pleasing salad that will show up on your table all year round.

Loving this lotion
Smells great, really smooths and moisturizes my skin
It leaves my skin feeling smooth, smelling amazing, and a light sheen
Great lotion for winter and it smells great for summer
scent: coconutty and very delicious
It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave my skin feeling to heavy or greasy
Really love this lotion!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
It's okay, not amazing to me, but a decent body moisturizer. I like to mix it with self-tanner.
I use this everyday. I have tried many of the DS lotions out there--can't bring myself to use HE brands since I go through lotion quickly. Well, this leaves my skin like velvet, esp. my legs! Will never stop buying.
My staple lotion. I LOVE anything cocoa butter so when Vaseline b=put this out I was all on it and haven't gotten off yet LOL.
The smell is yummy and it leaves my dry skin moisturized for the entire day! Not too thick either. Perfection.
It is a little expensive but I purchase the huge bottle from Walmart and it lasts me about a month.
I hate the bottle too! for some reason they always break (the pump especially) GR!
This is my HG moisturizer...I even use it on my face! I actually prefer the no-name brands (equate is a good one), as they are a bit thicker and about half the price, but all the same stuff. I have very dry/itchy skin and get a lot of eczema on my hands and legs (and right now, face). This really keeps it at bay and doesn't irritate at all. For the last year, this is the only lotion I've been using on my face and I found my skin tone is a little more even as well. I'm nearing 30 so I will probably switch to something more suited to anti aging though :)
My usual Suave Cocoa Butter & Shea wasn't moisturizing enough for me so I started looking for something new. Since I love the cocoa butter scent & saw the great reviews this had, I picked it up. Doesn't soak in super quickly but doesn't leave my skin feel tacky at all. It's the end of the day now & I don't have any dry or rough patches on me. If it continues to perform well, I will continue to buy
I have very dry sensitive skin, especially during the winter. Sometimes my skin is so parched that it screams for moisture. I bought this product thinking that since it was made by vaseline, that it might be good for my skin. First of all, it is too greasy. That almost sounds impossible for someone who has my condition. It doesn't seem to absorb that well into your skin and stays on the surface. The scent is rather pronounced. If you have eczema or allergies, fragrance is a big offender. Each time I apply this,it makes me itch and break out. I was very disappointed by this one and will not be repurchasing.
I purchased this product a couple months after using my co-workers for hand cream...
The smell is okay, not the best because it does last for a long time.
It's pretty greasy and I always have to wait a while before getting dressed, otherwise I just can't handle the greasy feeling under my clothes like other reviewers have said.
I've moved on to more Vaseline creams that I like a lot more, and have less of an obnoxious scent....
This is a good cream for winter if you have really dry skin!
This is a great lotion to have around the house. I originally bought it because I heard cocoa butter lotion is good for skin like mine (w/ stretch marks) but I absolutely hated the smell of other coca butter lotions like Palmers (ick!! it smells disgusting) I tried this one and was surprised it smelled different/better than all the other cocoa butter lotions out there. As far as packaging, yeah...its not the nicest thing to look at, but I honestly don't care as long as it works :) It is definitely very moisturizing, has a subtle nice smell, and keeps my skin hydrated between showers (1-2 days). I left this out in my room a couple times and whoever would be visiting (family, friends) would always use it, which is why I suggest buying a bottle and just putting it out around the house...my whole family uses a pump of this stuff every time they see it. Plus, its a little less than $4, so its not a terrible waste of money :)
My HG body lotion! I have gone through 3 bottles in the last few months and I can't say enough good things about this lotion. Very inexpensive, readily available at many stores, great scent, moisturizing, non-greasy, doesn't break me out, and leaves my skin feeling sooo soft. Absolutely love it! For reference I purchase the large economic bottle for $6 at Walmart.

It was Obama's fault
I'm tired of Bush being blamed for the 2008 economic "collapse." It started precisely when it was evident Obama would beat Hillary for the Democratic nomination. The collapse happened "in part" due to Obama's hiding of his identity and his intentions. Our free system is dependent on the confidence of the people in the system. Obama's ineptness jeopardized this confidence. A substantial part of our society had legitimate questions, and thus the economic fall. Obama's fault, not Bush's!

Beowulf [1999]
Directed by: Graham Baker
Starring: Christopher Lambert, Rhona Mitra, Oliver Cotton, Götz Otto, Charles Robinson, Roger Sloman, Layla Roberts, Patricia Velásquez.
Described as 'An Extreme Mix of Highlander, Dragonslayer & Mortal Kombat!', how can the film go wrong? Let me count the ways.
The film follows the basic plot of the first and second battles of Beowulf as played by Christopher Lambert. The first being the fight against Grendel, a monster of pure evil. The fight ends with, in this case, Grendel's arm being severed by some sort of bladed weapon rather than being ripped off. The second battle is fought against Grendel's Mother and ex Playboy Playmate, Layla Roberts. This section deviates quite a bit from the poem as is Hollywood's wont.
Beowulf has so many problems that it can't even really be enjoyed on a so bad it's good level. Firstly the film, for no apparent reason is set in some weird future where people are still using swords, knives and the like. Yet there are sentries on the battlements with what appear to be fairly intricate telescopes and there are sentries outside the castle with a computer enhanced spyglass. The scenario is described as 'Living in a techno-futile world of the future, a medieval land where technology's secrets are locked away in a mute past'. That this aspect is never delved into is irksome as it is a completely pointless plot convolution that breaks its own rules when the computerised telescope appears.
Another major problem is with the music. Normally, I wouldn't place this as particularly high on a list of things to ruin a film but the music by Juno Reactor is just so out of place it is untrue. It would appear that the music style is harkening to the 'techno-futile' future setting. However, as that is a worthless aspect the music becomes just a set of random sounds in the background. I think if the future setting had been dropped the music could have been more in the style of Conan or even Kull.
Christopher Lambert meanders through the film with very little to do and when he has a fight scene he does so many flips that he must have spent half the shooting time upside down. Maybe this explains why he appears to be so rubbish and only manages to win battles when the enemy makes a huge mistake. This is not completely true as the first fight outside the castle gives the impression that he is some sort of undefeatable super-hero.
Rhona Mitra spends most of the time with her huge cleavage pointing towards the camera. She comes off as worse than useless which is entirely the fault of the script. In fact all of the castle occupants seem to be incompetent and deserve to be killed posthaste.
A fairly bizarre aspect of the film is the number of familiar British actors appear. Oliver Cotton, Robert Wilcox and the unmistakable Roger Sloman appear, all having appeared in daytime TV fare such as Doctors or Heartbeat. This distracts somewhat as you have Lambert flipping all over the place and then you see 'that actor out of that episode of Midsomer Murders'. Maybe it'll have a similar effect when I watch The Bill and I will be distracted thinking 'there's that actor out of Beowulf'.
A final insult is the CGI battle at the end. I can say that I have never usually laughed at CGI. Generally, if the rest of the film is any good I will accept dodgy CGI and think 'well the budget probably didn't let them do much better'. The CGI in Beowulf is out of place and not very good. Has CGI gone so far in 8 years that a $20 million film from 1999 has far worse CGI than a £1 million pound TV show in 2007?
The positives: Patricia Velásquez is pretty good in her role as a frightened castle captive who escapes only to be caught by the army surrounding the castle. They think she contains evil from the castle and rough her up and condemn her to death. She has the obvious good sense to get out of the castle and out of the film as early as possible.
Another positive for Oliver Cotton, at least, is that he gets to have his nose licked by a Playboy Playmate as she appears with a see-through top and straddles him. Think of that next time you see him in Casualty.

In the end (and it hasn't ended yet), it always comes down to power. Lance Armstrong still has control: He's the one Oprah Winfrey agreed to appear alongside, and being interviewed by her confers more of Winfrey's mass-appeal influence upon his already-extensive power. What do I mean by power in this context? Imagine following Lance Armstrong around today, January 18; I'll bet you'll see no lessening of the deferential treatment he'll receive from nearly everyone who comes into contact with him. This is not a man who has been so disgraced he's no longer treated like a V.I.P. For all his pious confessions of guilt, of bullying, of helping to destroy careers, he remains addicted to control and the impact he's had on the sport he's helped to traduce. READ FULL STORY

Piers Morgan interviews Oprah on CNN: Larry King? Who's Larry King?
The premiere of Piers Morgan Tonight revealed host Piers Morgan to be clever, tenacious, vain, a flatterer, and fitfully funny. Oh, and he had a big-name first guest: Oprah Winfrey, who talked about contemplating suicide at age 14, her quest to interview Michael Vick, and how many times she's had her heart broken (twice).

George Bush: 'Let's talk about water-boarding!' Torture, getting drunk, making Kanye and Cheney mad: The TV book-tour begins!
The creepiest promo for Monday night's Decision Points: A Conversation with George W. Bush was the snippet that played all last week during NBC's entertainment programming, in which former president George W. Bush said to Matt Lauer, "Let's talk about water-boarding" in an enthusiastic tone that suggested the subject was as fun and exciting as a trip to Disneyworld.
NBC's promo department should be sent to the same woodshed where Keith Olbermann is being kept until Tuesday evening. It turned out that READ FULL STORY
Octomom Nadya Suleman to Oprah: 'I have a ridiculously huge family... for my own childish desires'
Oprah Winfrey said on today's show she "had reservations" about interviewing Nadya Suleman and thereby joining the Octomom media coverage — until she got a letter from Suleman saying the Octomom wanted the world "to see her for who she is."
Who she is, to my eyes after watching Oprah, is a woman with a shaky grasp on reality, READ FULL STORY
Will you be watching 'Life' this weekend?
A big must-watch of the weekend is Life, the first two episodes of the Discovery channel's eye-popping nature documentaries. Just look at this clip and tell me you don't want to see more of that fly getting snagged by the Venus flytrap, or those whales do that swirling, perfect circle in the water:
This weekend's second episode, "Reptiles and Amphibians," features this little tale of the waterfall toad — "the size of a postage stamp," says narrator Oprah Winfrey — and how it escapes death from a snake sneaking up behind it:
Eeek! I mean, really, there are hours of this kind of thing, and you can't believe how the cameras captured these moments.
What do you think? Up for some nature and adventure on Life?

'Oprah Winfrey Oscar Special': The talk version of air-kissing
During last night's special, Oprah Winfrey didn't conduct the interviews. She just set up taped bits, introducing a series of stars interviewing each other about Oscar night. Halle Berry and Penelope Cruz exchanged compliments. (Berry, re Cruz in Nine: "I thought you were sexy from the inside out.")
James Cameron, who was interviewed by his Avatar star Sigourney Weaver, was gracious about being nominated in the same categories as his ex-wife, Hurt Locker director Kathryn Bigelow. Did you expect him to bad-mouth her?
Glenn Close and Michael Douglas looked at clips and talked — "for the first time," said Oprah in her intro — about Fatal Attraction. Close allowed as how she thought the famous boiled-rabbit scene was "over the top." They discussed the re-shooting of Fatal's final scene. The original, in which Close's character committed suicide, didn't go over well with preview audiences. "The audience wanted you to be killed," said Douglas.
Close said changing the ending (having Anne Archer's character shoot her) was "a profound problem for me… I was so mad."
They hugged and said they were grateful to be friends after all these years.
A charming Ben Affleck interviewed Hurt Locker's Jeremy Renner, occasionally reading off, as some of the other stars did, cards. He asked Renner questions such as "You grew up in Modesto, California… what was that like?" and "Do you have women throwing themselves at you since being nominated?"
The format for this show was silly. You can't blame the actors, though. They're not interviewers; they're not trying to tease out anything that might make a colleague uncomfortable.
What else is there to say? Good luck to those who are nominated this year.
David Letterman jokes about Leno-Oprah commercial, Sandra Bullock jokes about Dave and women
David Letterman said last night that his Super Bowl commercial confused his mother: "My mom called and said, 'David, who was the guy with Oprah and Jay?'"
Biff Henderson also expressed a certain loyalty to Leno. (About three minutes in here.)
A bit later Letterman noted that after the idea was conceived and broadcast, "People thought it was really hot stuff. So I'd like to thank the actors who played Oprah and Jay Leno."
One of the best parts of last night's show was seeing Sandra Bullock — who demonstrated that she can catch and throw a football while in high heels — needle Dave.
After showing some amusing pictures taken at an awards show of Bullock open-mouth-kissing Meryl Streep, Dave said with mock-severity, "Well, I guess that's the kind of thing you people do out in Hollywood," Bullock shot back, "Oh, I suppose you've never kissed a woman before, Dave." (Occurs about 2:30 in here.)
Glad Bullock has reaped an Oscar nomination even if I haven't seen The Blind Side, if for no other reason than it means she makes sparky TV appearances such as this one.
Did you watch Dave last night?

A regular on NPR's news quiz show, "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me," Poundstone tours regularly, performing standup comedy across the country, engaging the audience in spontaneous humor. In March, 2013, Paula joined Whoopi Goldberg, Joan Rivers and several other prominent women in comedy for a feature-length documentary produced by Lions Gate for Showtime entitled, WHY WE LAUGH TOO: Women of Comedy. In November, 2012 in Washington DC, Paula was honored, along with Nina Totenberg, NPR correspondent; David Brooks, New York Times columnist; and Bob Mankoff, New Yorker Cartoon Editor, with the 2012 Moment Magazine Creativity Award at their 35th anniversary symposium and dinner, followed by a one-hour panel on the intersection of humor and politics. Just weeks later Paula was hand-picked to interview Calvin Trillin for the Los Angeles-series-darling, Writers Bloc, conversations between the featured author and another interesting thinker. Paula has starred in comedy specials on HBO and BRAVO, won an Emmy Award, served as "official correspondent" for The Tonight Show during the 1992 Presidential race, pioneered the art of backstage commentary during an Emmy telecast, steps up to the plate for causes she believes in, and is almost always included in any compendium – be it film, television or print, noting comedic influences of the 20th/21st century, most recently, We Killed: The Rise of Women in American Comedy (October 2012, Sarah Crichton Books). Paula also appears on "Late Night w/Craig Ferguson" about 3 times a year and she'll do an occasional editorial for NPR's "All Things Considered". In April 2013 NPR Laughter Therapy (Highbridge Audio) released a 2-CD collection of NPR's best interviews and stories with "funny folks" including Paula's Talk of the Nation interview. If it means anything to anyone, she is recognized as one of Comedy Central's 100 greatest stand-ups of all time. Paula won an American Comedy Award for Best Female Standup Comic, and in 2010 she was one of a select group voted into the Comedy Hall of Fame.

Whats up my Spark Peeps!
Just completed day 2 plyometrics. Found it very difficult to get through the entire workout. I didn't get much sleep last night so I don't think that helped very much. I joined a gym the other day so I'm going to do some swimming later tonight to supplement my workout.
I had another good diet day. I'm really loving my vitamix machine! Its amazing what that thing can do. I literally throw all the organic veggies I have in my fridge and put them in there whole and out comes a beautiful creation. I hope I'm not overdoing it though. I tend to make at least 2 of these veggie drinks a day. In each one is approximately 2 large carrots, half a big cucumber, cup of baby spinach, an apple, and a cup of broccoli.
Additionally, I'm getting in the routine of taking my aloe vera, whey protein, green cuisine powder, fish oil, and liquid multivite everyday. I'm so glad I'm doing all these different things to improve my health. P90X + Swimming + 2 veggie drinks/day + vitamins/supplements seems like a great combination.
My thoughts are that if I'm going to get back in shape, I'm going to go full throttle! Let's go!
Day 1 is in the books! I've done a few of the workouts before so I knew what I was in for. Found it to be a good workout. Definitely struggled towards the end. Plyometrics tomorrow morning!
I'm really happy with my diet today. I ate really clean, made myself 2 delicious fruit/veggie juice drinks with my new vitamix(!!), and stayed around 1800-2000 calories.
Looking forward to getting into a better routine where I can incorporate swimming, running, etc.
Good night spark world

Tallahassee Utilities officials say it's unlikely City Commissioners will vote on the city's energy future during the September 13 meeting as initially planned. Commissioners listed about 20 questions including concerns about environmental impact and costs.
Commissioners are considering how to diversify the city's energy portfolio, now 95 percent reliant on natural gas. Coal is an option on the table, including the Taylor Energy Center or purchasing power from a Georgia plant.
Commissioners say they've been learning more and growing throughout the last two years...as a result, they're able to ask better, more specific questions. Some include whether the city should set standards for the power it purchases. An example: if coal power at one plant is cheaper, but dirtier than another plant's more expensive coal power, the city would not purchase the cheaper power. A public hearing was scheduled for next Tuesday.
Commissioners also adopted a public schools inter-local agreement, part of Senate Bill 360 requiring developers to pay up if their new development strains already crowded schools. It will also put a School Board Member on the Development Review Committee.
The Leon County Commission and the Leon County School Board adopted the same agreement Tuesday night. The three will now decide what the amendments will be to the comp plan to comply with the law, effective in 2008.
The City of Tallahassee also recognizes the life of the late Hurley Rudd, a former mayor and commissioner who died earlier this month at the age of 78. Mayor John Marks presented a flag to Rudd's family, a flag that once flew over City Hall.
Rudd's son said, "I think it's a great honor, my father served as a commissioner, in the House of Representatives. He really enjoyed his service with the city and really enjoyed all the things he did and the opportunity to serve all the people in the city of Tallahassee."
Hurley Rudd and his brother, John Rudd, are the only pair of brothers to serve the city of Tallahassee as mayor.
The mayor also passing along the Governor's Points of Light's Award to Tallahassee's Laura Adams. The award recognizes Floridians who not only work to benefit their communities, but make a difference in the lives of their neighbors.
Adams was honored for her nine years of service as a foster parent, often taking in abused and neglected children.

Top 10 New Wave of American Heavy Metal Bands
D2DemonThis is a list of the best New wave of american heavy metal bands. And please only use bands that are on Wikipedia's list located here. Don't agree with the list? Vote for an existing item you think should be ranked higher or if you are a logged in, add a new item for others to vote on or create your own version of this list.
The Top Ten
1Avenged Sevenfold
They're the best because they have great lyrics, excellent musicianship, a good image too, and amazing live shows. Plus they're from Orange County like me, which automatically makes them awesome.
Isten to all these bands, but Slipknot's the best. I have all of their albums (bought them at the store, except for Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. , which is actually just a demo album) and all of their songs. I have listened to them since I was thirteen and wont stop any time soon.
I listen to all slipknot and others songs.. But avenged sevenfold is the best
[Newest]Poser sevenfold is also on top of the most underrated metal bands list
2Lamb of God
I actually can not describe this band as well as they really deserve and are. As every metal fans know this band could revive the roughly forgotten groove metal sub-genre that the legendary pantera introduced it in early 90 to metalheads and shortly after they got popular they call this genre to be pure American metal. Sometimes I get annoyed when you compare different bands with different styles and different origins0i don't want to subvert the popularity of avenged sevenfold but as a metal fan that seriously follow all the sub-genre of heavy metal can not consider this band to be the one that could innovate sth extraordinary. They just could improve hard rock style and make it more attractive than before. So I propose to put lamb of god as number one of the list
For those who disagree or don't know Lamb Of God, listen to them, they are the kings, boasting with songs such as Blacken The Cursed Sun, Laid To Rest, Vigil. This band is ultimately the best New Wave Of American Heavy Metal (and heavy metal) band... Can't argue with that... And if you disagree, we Lamb Of God fans wouldn't bother because we're doing fine without ya.
kick-a** drums, kick-a** vocals, kick-a** guitar riffs; Lamb of God is the new Metallica
[Newest]Should be first, and you know it
Pantera is the big grandfather of all these metal bands on this list, respect your elders, especially Dimebag Darrel, the coolest guitarist in the world.
Pantera should be #1 no question about it. This list is pathetic most of these bands have no business being on this list! And having avenged at #1 is ridiculous I don't even consider them as a metal band anymore. They are hard rock and their music gets less heavy with every album they release!
Pantera is the definition of a REAL Heavy metal band. Just listen to their heavy riffs and solos, not to mention Phil's amazing vocals and Dimebag's unparalled distorted riffs. Just listen to songs like cowboys from hell, Walk,5 minutes alone, Mouth for war, Domination, I'm broken, and so on. Avenged sevenfold is number 1 due to some lame voters. One who truly knows what heavy metal is all about will vote for PANTERA!
[Newest]Did you know that pantera was once a hair metal band in the 80s?
I listen to all these bands, but Slipknot's the best. I have all of their albums (bought them at the store, except for Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. , which is actually just a demo album)and all of their songs. I have listened to them since I was thirteen and wont stop any time soon.
Slipknot's style has evolved over the years, showing that they are very talented musicians. Pantera saved heavy metal in the 90's but no one does raw aggression like slipknot!
Slipknot forever. I don't know what you guys think but if you seek my advice, They are the real deal. I am not promoting them, I just love them
[Newest]This is bull! How could they be at number 4. They were the start of the new wave of heavy metal! And there hasn't been any other band as insane as them live, even though the self-titled and Iowa era was way better than the new era (vol3 and all hope is gone). But they are back alright! The Gray Chapter is their best album yet... In my opinion
By far the most original and creative of all metal bands mentioned in this list. They continue to develop their progressive/sludge inspired sound and push their music into new territory whereas most metals bands have failed to evolve since the last decade. Mastodon continue to experiment and expanded the metal genre and refuse to conform to the homogeneity of the current scenes. They are a force to be reckoned with and have yet to displease critics and fans alike.
These guys bring something totally new to the New American metal stage. They stand high above the rest on this list.
Greatest metal band of the last 15 years
6Five Finger Death Punch
This guys totally need to be closer to 1. Spot. At least 5. Place, if not more.
These guys kick ass. One of the best metal bands to date
I love almost all of their songs. the singer has a bad ass metal voice and the guitars sound heavy and fast! I love it!
[Newest]Take it from an A7X fan, They, re not bad
Disturbed is the best of these metal bands, one of the top 3 metal bands ever and one of the top 5 bands ever.
I just can't decide between Disturbed and KoRn I love both bands!
Disturbed is its own thing and sounds like nothing else and is amazing
[Newest]Listen to Ten Thousand Fists and Asylum all the way through and your mind will be blown.
8Machine Head
This band absolutely slays. They have one of metal's most thriving vocalists and they have an awesome take no s*** attitude
This is what true American metal should sound like... Let freedom ring with a shotgun blast!
Avenged sevenfold is so overrated.
9System of a Down
Really? No System of a Down on here yet? They have a completely unique sound and influenced some of the bands on this list. They rank among Slipknot and Disturbed as pioneers of a new wave on insane metal.
Got to be one of the best bands ever. Completely original music with a style that ranges from the softer vocals and instrumentation of Roulette to the really harsh vocals and unpredictable format of Suite-pee.
Loved Serj Tankian in System of a down.
If it wasn't for korn, none of these bands would exist. Deal with it! Korn is the band who started the new wave of American heavy metal. The vocalist from korn (jonathan Davis) is the first person who started singing about emotions and such, before it was just lame lyrics, and they were also the first really heavy band with 7 stringed guitars and 5 stringed basses. What I love with them is that they don't use ugly ass solos and they don't scream their guts out.
Undebiably, KoRn was the driving force behind nu metal's rise in the late 90s. On the scene since the start of that decade, they were a startingly unique underground phenomena whose grassroot beginnings gave the genre a fresh, DIY edge that had been lost since the rise of mainstream radio rock of the post-grunge era.
I'm sorry but since when was Korn heavy metal? I'll give them metal, but not heavy metal. This whole list is of mostly metal bands, not heavy metal. I do believe it is an inaccurate list. When you talk about new age heavy metal you think of Born of Osiris, Parkway Drive, Reflections, etc. Like even having Djent bands here would be better then the bands you are calling heavy metal in this list.
[Newest]Korn > everyone on this list

12As I Lay Dying
The NWofAHM is slim pickings, and we're all dying for one of these bands to break down the walls of pop music today.
Beast band that totally deserves to be in the top 10. It's a pity that it is totally underrated. This band makes divine music and are by far the most consistent band from the top 10 list along with disturbed, slipknot and a7x
Americas Bullet for my Valentine
15Bullet For My Valentine
Bullet my valentine have to be fourth because most of his song kick ass
Although Bullet For My Valentine are not American.. They still need to be ranked top 3 the least.. (if not number one). They are talented musicians with a bright future..
Bullet is the best of this bands, the music is amazing
Muvayne bad ass band one of my favorites
They say that bands lose the hard core stuff every album but I think they get better cause without good lyrics its just the same old heavy metal soun so mudvayne should be num 1
17All That Remains
19Lazarus A.D.
Great group of dudes. Amazing music!
20Shadows Fall
Some faith in humanity is restored when I see bands like this. They aren't generic, they don't overuse the same ideas, and they have pretty good musicianship.
The Modern Age Metallica. They are the closest to thrash metal in a modern sense. I don't see them as pure metalcore nor thrash. If you need riffs that you can bang your head to then this the band. They also have great solos.
Best heavy speed out there
22Fear Factory
Duh, they're better than most of the top ten
Chimaira are the pure embodiment of American heavy metal. At least most of their early stuff.
Listen to I Stand Alone, Awake, Keep Away, Voodoo, Enemy, Saints and Sinners. Then listen to more of their songs after you've heard those and totally got in to them.
Should be top 10 on this list
This belongs in the top ten for sure
25Protest the Hero
these guys kick total ass. no question about it
29Norma Jean
32Municipal Waste
33Breaking Benjamin
35Absolution Project
I don't know y no one knows this band, but this band should be in the top ten!
36All Shall Perish
A great Deathcore band which is underrated.
Good great not bad for an american metal band
One of the best bands ever! Need to listen!
37Motley Crue
This is the real heavy metal...face it!
38The Black Dahlia Murder
Why these guys aren't in the top 10 is beyond me
While the dominant styles in the movement are, unfortunately, metalcore and nu metal, Nevermore go out of their way to craft a unique blend of traditional metal, thrash and power metal that stands out from the same old sounds that this movement has spawned. No disrespect to bands like Pantera, but this band got it better than the rest.
42Becoming the Archetype
the best Christian death metal band!
43Straight Line Stitch
Female screamer is amazing! Love it
Best the is right her!
45The Devil Wears Prada
It said post your opinion and it's my opinion, no need for explanation.
46Gemini Syndrome
Lux album kicks so much ass
47Falling In Reverse
These guys should be in the top ten! Ronnie is amazing at writing lyrics, Jacky can shred on a guitar like no other in this music era! Ryan seamen can play some pretty good drums. They are not the best in America, but they deserve to be in the top five!
48Toxic Holocaust
49Black Label Society
Zakk Wylde has to be one of the greatest guitarists in the world.
50Suicide Silence
I was looking through the list of bands you guys have listed here, and I didn't see Suicide Silence. Mitch Lucker was an amazing vocalist, his vocals went great with the music. May he stomp on! M/
These guys are a little newer to the scene, but they have brought their own brand and kick some serious ass.
53Miss May I
54Times of Grace
56Blood Tsunami
57Texas in July
58Stone Sour
We have to get Cory in there!
Badass thrash band from the bay area
This band has a killer sound
64Asking Alexandria

Boondocking Site Review – Gunsight Wash BLM, Why, AZ
A pretty and easy boondocking spot around 2 miles south of Why, AZ in southern Arizona
Location: Gunsight Wash, approx 2 miles south of Why, AZ on Hwy 85
Coordinates: Entry to gunsight wash approx. 32.238105,-112.751037. Link to map location HERE
Cost: FREE (14-day stay limit) Get pass from camphost on arrival.
How We Found It: We had heard about this area from other RV bloggers who stayed here and also found the site on freecampsites.net.
Nearest Dump/Water: $10 for dump/water at Coyote Howls RV Park just up the road in Why, AZ
- Access – 4/5
Very easy access here for any-sized rig with just a very few dings. The entry to Gunsight wash is located on the right hand-side just past milemarker 55 on Hwy 85 south (look for a large dirt clearing directly after the bridge). Once inside you'll cross a gate and see the camphost. Stop here to register for your free 14-day pass. There are two main dirt roads which lead back into the wash with many, obvious cleared areas for camping some of which will also accommodate groups. The only slight ding is that the road does become more bumpy as you go back. Large rigs should probably camp nearer the entrance and/or scout back before driving in. The camphost is also super-friendly and can help you get the lay of the land if needed.
- Nature – 4/5
Very nice nature in this area. The boondocking site is on a flat area next to a large wash. The desert here is lush and green with many small bushes, trees (some sites even have shade) and cacti. Lots of birds and pretty views of distant hills. On-site there are several dirt roads to explore on foot/bike, plus you are only 4 miles from the entrance to fabulous Organ Pipe National Monument. Only slight ding? No real hiking trails here plus this is listed as an area of "illegal activities" (see my thoughts in "summary" section below).
- Isolation – 3/5
Medium isolation here. This is a fairly well-known boondocking spot so you are likely to have company unless you come out of season. However there is plenty of space for everyone, and if you're willing/able to drive further back into the wash you can find some decent isolation. There is also *some* highway noise from Hwy 85 although we did not find it bothersome.
- Pet Friendliness – 5/5
Another great location for the paws. Lots of open space around camp plus plenty of dirt roads to walk/bike/explore. Good green surroundings with very little cholla (= easy on the paws)
Overall Rating = 4
BONUS ALERT = Camp in "lush" desert only 4 miles from fabulous Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument!
Summary: We chose this spot as a base to explore Ajo (~10 miles away) and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (~4 miles from entrance) and it turned out to be perfect. This is a "semi-managed" BLM area which means there is a camphost and a procedure of registration, but in all other respects it's just a regular boondocking site. There is a 14-day stay limit and no cost to stay. Access is super easy right off Hwy 85 and there are plenty of level sites for any-sized rig and even larger sites for groups. The surrounding nature is flat, "green" desert (quite lush) with several dirt roads to explore and pretty views of the distant hills. Lots of bushes, trees and birds. Some sites even have shade! Plus there is a free book-swap by the camphost in the front. The only slight dings? This is a well-known boondocking site so you'll likely have neighbors, plus there is *some* noise from Hwy 85 (it didn't bother us). Also, due to it's proximity to Mexico this area has signs warning of "illegal activities". This may bother some folks even though it's a very common thing in southern AZ (these signs are all over the place here). Personally we felt quite safe. There are over 700 border patrol agents in the area, and the camphost (who's been hosting here for 10 years) said he's never seen any issues. However if that's something that worries you, this may not be the place for you and there are plenty of inexpensive nearby RV parks as alternatives (see below). In our case we loved it!! The animals were enthralled by the green undergrowth, we loved the super-friendly camphost and we enjoyed a perfectly peaceful & relaxing stay. We ended up maxing out our 14 days and will most definitely visit again.
Extra Info: Strong (3-4 bars) Verizon 3G signal although we found it at times to be a tad slow (likely due to tower overloading). NO facilities (no garbage, no dump, no water).
Extra, Extra Info – OTHER BOONDOCKING: Gunsight wash is probably the easiest boondocking spot in this area, but there are plenty of other possibilities for those willing to explore:
- Darby Road (next to Ajo, AZ) has quite attractive spots, although most are probably better-suited to medium-sized rigs (I only found a few that were "beast"-size when we were scouting). It's a gorgeous area if you can get in.
- Ajo Community Golf Course (just north of Ajo on Mead Road) has ~10 nice dry-camping spots where you can camp for free (for 3 days) if you play a round at the course (only $9 for 9 holes) or have a meal at the clubhouse.
- There are also many other BLM roads in the area, all of which allow 14-day stays.
Extra, Extra, Extra Info – OTHER CAMPING: For those of you worried about the "illegal activities" signs there are plenty of really nice, inexpensive RV parks right around the corner in Why, AZ.
- Coyote Howls is quite unique. The main park has natural (dispersed-type) campsites with no hookups and costs only $40/week or $130/mo (!). We really liked the look of this section…almost like a "managed" BLM area. They also have a hookup section for only $220/mo (+elec.). Very cheap!
- Hickiwan Trails RV Park is a simple, clean park that seems to be a local favorite and costs only $19/night.

Georgia says:
You do such a nice job on these boondocking posts and it is truly appreciated!
Georgia says:
I probably should say that you do such a nice job on ALL your posts!!! Sorry bout that.
libertatemamo says:
Cheers Nina
Brett+Cheri [HelloFreedom] says:
Nina, what a wonderful post. I as wondering, is there some sort of electric/water hook-ups for the Camphost, or are they boondocking as well? What is their incentive other than no 14-day limit? Thanks! Brett+Cheri
libertatemamo says:
No, the camphost didn't have any hookups. They do get a honey wagon service that comes out, and of course they can stay all winter. Not many perks, but it's also a very, very relaxed job…just registering folks.
Chris says:
So this must be more like a LTVA area? Though you didn't pay any fee…right?
Unusual to have a host on BLM land is it not?
libertatemamo says:
Somewhat. It's like an LTVA, but no fees plus no facilities and there's a 14-day limit. So, it really is a "semi-managed" BLM area. It's somewhat unusual to have a host, but not entirely. Several of the heavily-used BLM areas in AZ have them including Quartzsite (in the free 14-day areas), Snyder Hill (another free 14-day area near Tuscon) and here. The intent is to ensure people don't "squat" the land and enforce the 14-day limit. Hopefully these areas remain free, but they get enough use that I could see the BLM charging for them at some point in the future.
Papa says:
I love this boondocking update.
It is now my plan to visit there next year.
I'm still enjoying the "Steps" just a few miles north of Parker Dam.
I have some interesting information on my blog about the land fraud schemes. I titled the post "My connection to the Mob"
libertatemamo says:
What a fascinating little story! I've heard of the steps, but have not yet been there (we keep meaning to visit Parker and never quite make it!). Cheers for the blog link.
Chris says:
Sorry to be a bother but this link doesn't work for me, nor does a google search reveal a blog called papas-travel.
Now that my curiosity is piqued by your comment I would like to read it also.
The link worked for you obviously Nina. Can you supply and alternate?
libertatemamo says:
There was an "s" missing in the link which I've now corrected.
Here's the right one:
Dave'n'Kim says:
No wonder you stayed 14 days – it must have taken that long to research the area to give us all that wonderful useful info! Many thanks for your work in this respect Nina and Paul!
libertatemamo says:
It was tough to leave, I admit. We really liked it there, as did the animals.
Brenda McCoy says:
Nina, we go by this place when we travel to Rocky Point we live in Tempe. It is a beautiful beach area. They do have RV parks with full hook up for your rig that is if you cared to venture to Mexico. It is 1 hour south of the border. I am sure you know all about it, as you seem to do your research. Only reason I tell you about it because we go there often. You sure have been here at a great time our weather has just been Fabulous.
libertatemamo says:
I have to admit we've not (yet) been tempted to go to Mexico, but you never know. Any boondocking in Rocky Point or is it mostly RV parks? We're not too much into the RV park scene especially if sites are close together, although we DO love Mexican food. It's hard to beat the space and relaxation of the desert…
Greg says:
Hey guys,
I have been following your blog for quite a while now and just wanted to let you know what a great job you did with this post! I imagine it took a lot of effort but your readers truly appreciate it:) Thank you!
libertatemamo says:
These posts do take quite a bit of work, but hopefully they encourage others to share our land and share the love
Sherry says:
You have THE best campground reviews anywhere. Love your extra extra extra information. You are a boondocking treasure! Thanks for all the time you put into providing this information for us.
libertatemamo says:
Glad you enjoy them
regina lee says:
Great report on your boondocking location and other areas to park as well. I do have one question, where do you take your trash to dispose of it?
libertatemamo says:
In Ajo they have a landfill that the BLM asks you to use. It's only $3 for any amount of trash you bring:
regina lee says:
Good to know, thanks again.
LaneVids says:
These boondocking posts are great! Thanks for sharing! I think that ill really like boondocking once we are able to get on the road. This place looks pretty awesome!
libertatemamo says:
We love doing this in winter in the SW. Lots of opportunity for it out here.
Doug Hinman says:
Hi Nina, We really enjoy your blog and thanks for the great info on boondocking or pay areas. another one in the AJO area near the Golf Course is the AJO rodeo arena. The SKPS boondocking group meets there every year. $3 a night or $18 a week or $35 a month, water available, dump station and one trash barrel that usually is full. Good hiking around the area, very quiet, but only 5 miles from AJO on Well Road, about a mile south of the golf course.
libertatemamo says:
Thanks for that!! We actually noticed that spot on the way to the golf course (and even saw the SKP group there sign and all), but I couldn't find any info on it so I left it out of the review. This completes it! Thanks so much!
Janna and Mike says:
Great post Nina! Mike and I took our previous rig to Mexico–to Alamos, Sonora–about 9 hours south of the Nogales border crossing, staying a month. We had no issues and never felt unsafe. Boondocking in Mexico might not be a good thing to do–camping alone could be asking for trouble–just my opinion and I am sure there are others who would think it was OK.
Thanks for all the work you do on these boondocking posts!!
libertatemamo says:
Thanks Janna. Yeah, I'm thinking Mexico would be mostly RV parks if we went. Not really our style. Maybe one day..
Lori Leduc says:
Hello, I just found your blog. I am heading into California from Arizona. Do you have any boondocking ideas along the coast? Thank you
libertatemamo says:
We actually haven't done the coastal road in CA, so I don't have any info to share. I suggest you check out http://www.freecampsites.net

Hi Nina, Thanks for this information. We've camped on Darby Wells on our way to and from Rocky Point but I think this would actually be an easier stop. That area has some of the most beautiful desert and I think that camp host has a sweet gig!
Rocky Point has lost one of its best boondocking sites – Sandy Beach – but I hear there's another one we haven't tried out. We're not park people either but plan to travel the Baja in a few years so we'll see how that goes.
I did a little research on the site you're in now but am excited to hear your review for that area as it's one I've heard of but never explored.
Take care and thank you so much for these reviews!

Cool info about Sandy Beach. Maybe I'll research some more and check it out.
Not to give too much away but we are (once again) LOVING our new spot….I'll be posting pics soon.
Nina it really bears repeating that your boondocking rating and summary are so very useful and interesting! Thanks for the effort, Bill n Sadie

Hi Nina, Love all your posts and the info you're so willing to share with all of us. Maybe I missed it if you've already addressed the issue food while you're boondocking several weeks at a time. We also eat primarily Paleo, without processed foods and am wondering how you store enough fresh or frozen meats and produce to last that long. We're in the beginning planning stages of going full time. This will be an important part of my kitchen planning as we move forward.

Regarding food are generally able to shop around once a week no matter where we are (most places have at least some kind of small shop nearby), but sometimes we do need to go two weeks. On the veggie side our basic approach is to buy a variety of veggies, some of which perish faster and others which will last longer…then we eat them in order. So salads, leafy greens and such go first whereas squashes & cabbage can easily last two weeks or more. Fruits are managed the same way (berries eaten first, things like apples last). For breakfast we always have eggs which easily last 2 weeks. For meats we will stock our freezer as deep as it can go and just use as we need. Often during longer boondocking stays we make meals that last multiple days (e.g. stews). We also carry a variety of easy dried foods for snacking (e.g. nuts, jerky etc.).
We DO buy local, fresh foods as often as we can. I always look-up farmers markets no matter where we go and use websites like eatwild.com to search for grassfed meats.

We just pulled in here this afternoon. After your glowing recommendation and thorough review, we decided to make this the site of our first boondocking excursion after buying our coach in Tucson. Thanks for all the info, we can't wait to try out a few of your other recommendations!
libertatemamo says:
Excellent! Hope you enjoy the area as much as we did.
[…] Monument we spend a few days just north of the park at a BLM 14 day free camping area known as Gunsite Wash. From here we did a quick scouting trip into the park and checked out the visitor center to get a […]
