She's 15, but she's messaged with you a few times - so she thinks of you as a real person (which might make it not okay). I haven't read anything for months (every night I go to bed listening to Moby Dick and get to the same place where he doesn't want to sleep '2 to a bed' and I'm out like a light. I wake up and have no idea where I'm at in the book and turn it off.

Someday, I want to get beyond chapter 2 :wink:.
But I might toss yours in as a kindle :cat:

If it were me, I'd probably read it first just in case. There are only a few places that are possibly questionable, but I'd hate to say "yeah throw it at her" and then she show you something you wouldn't have wanted her to read and then you come back and bite me.

I did a bunch of work on an RV for a couple from Canada that did exactly what you are talking about, they said it was the best decision they ever made. Go wherever whenever. You guys are going to love it.

Oh this is a Land Rover 90, built before they started making the Land Rover Defender. I had one back in the UK for years and years. It was great but the previous owner was a farmer and in the heat of summer it smelled of sheep. The problem with standard Land Rover models like the 90, 110 and defender is that they don't meet the legal limits on strength and the NAS (North American Spec ) Defender had to have an additional roll cage added.
They stopped making the Defender last year which made me sad. But I'm guessing the new utility vehicle might not need the adjustments.

I'll get of my nerd box now...

That's awesome. I don't know what I'm going to do when I get around to getting one. If I get a U.S. one that's old enough to look like that I'll have to be pretty careful because it'd have to be really old and I'm not good with cars myself to fix any problems.

Dunno if you ever saw Rosemary and Thyme but they're supposed to drive this ugly old car and I'm like, no I'd love that one! Lol.

She can read what she wants, at this age (we've talked about that - she and I)
but if it came FROM me - from someone she 'knows'
IDK. That sort of thing.

yea, we are already big time travelers so for the next 12 or so months just getting everything set up and ready to go. Might even do a sailboat for a year or so, just depends. Have a lot of stuff to settle first, like some of the kids moving the fuck out first.
