I just moved here last weekend. I work Monday thru Friday and don't get a lot of time off, and my last camp was at a site that was super difficult to get in and out of,... maybe some weekend thing in the future?

P.S. sorry my late resppnse, i just saw this thread.

P.S.S. - juyst because I moved out of my apartment doesnt mean I wont still be going to florida alot.. I just have a ton of travel for the next ?? months so it didnt make sense to maintain two homes when I wont be able to use them.

I just got my RV reservations for Bowling Green - Nov. 9-12
I've never been to a Tiny Home festival - they asked if I wanted to display / show my conversion - has anyone done that? I am okay when I meet people to show them the bus - but has anyone sat there for 2-3 days and just let people walk in? Any one know how that works?

Anyone else going?

We are going to arrive Friday night so we can be ready to go check stuff out Saturday and stay Saturday night for the concert, then head out Sunday morning for home. We did not ask or were not asked to show off our little bus. Our bus will pretty crowded looking in Camp mode for the weekend anyways. Maybe we will be able to park near you

When I was at the bus rally in Evansville everyone just left their bus doors open and people just walked in.. there were a couple conversions that were always locked but many were wide open which seemed to mean welcome.. it was both conversions and stock busses that did it there.. I was always used to the "look but don't touch" of car shows but seemed bus and home shows are different

Well - there will be some great people there! I am excited. I was worried about people going through my things - but I will work on securing things in storage areas.
It will be super weekend - if I can get power, it will be better - but in either case - it will be great! I look forward to morning Coffee with new friends!

People were good about it in Evansville, there were laptops iPhones etc on peoples tables, dashes, etc . I didn't hear of any issues. I'm sure the number of torusts that weren't participants may have been much smaller there as there will be at your event.
Simple locks on your cabinets should do I'd think. Something that should be there for keeps no things secured during travel anyway I'd think.

I think short busses bring a lot of interest, what all can be done in a small space . Not micro small like a van and also not huge like a full bus. Your cutaway bus seems like the perfect solution for someone that wants a little more space and height than a van but can still drive almost everywhere a van can.
