    Overnight Parking In California? COVID 2020

    Hey, I was wondering if anyone had any advice on where one could stay in California while covid 19 safety precautions are in order. Are any parks or campgrounds open in Los Angeles or anywhere is Southern California? Has anyone gone to the beach lately? I know there are many vanlifers in Cali...

    NorCal suggestions?

    Anyone know of any good locations in NorCal? The more remote the better, no high traffic areas. Any suggestions, tips or info would be highly appreciated.

    Hitchin' Denver to California: What Could Go Wrong? (Pt. 6) [Final]

    CW: Drugged via Drink . . . The morning sun filtered through the blinds into Ryan's bedroom. I turned to face them, all swaddled up and cozy in their sheets. I leaned over and placed a kiss on their forehead, and nestled myself next to their chest "Today is going to be a good day." Much of...

    I awoke at around 7am in the basement of a house that my friend Tiff had been renting. It was almost cozy enough to fight off the call of another day on the road. Almost. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that I super didn't want to take a fucking bus all the way to Las Vegas. I...

    "What do you mean you can't take me to Vegas?" "Apparently some other guy got that load, and dispatch is trying to send me to Montana. I'm sorry." I rubbed my eyes and tried to think quickly enough that I wouldn't go into panic mode. I had just woken up to the news that a promised ride after a...

    Hitchin' Denver To California: What Could Go Wrong? (Pt. 3)

    The most surprising thing about Salt Lake City was how kind it was to me. A weekend full of lovely coincidences, happy surprises, and a boost of morale that I super needed. Steve dropped me off at a Walmart off of I-15, and I immediately started making my way to the closest gay bar for a cold...

    I woke up. I heard voices. It was still pitch black outside so it had to be at least before 5am. I looked to the north and saw a flashlight scanning the trees a little ways up the path from us. The flashlight was getting closer. I didn't know what to make of it, I didn't know whether to wake up...
