Book excerpt: As with the two previous diaries, this is not only about people we met on the road and the problems encountered when using an ageing American Motorhome (RV). She gives her thoughts in asides, not necessarily on travel, but personal feelings whilst away from home. As seen, Lisa overcame her doubts over life on the road and maybe the positives overcame the negatives in the end, so many memories! We have inserted fifty colorful photos which were hard to pick from the huge collection, together with a map and a listing of the road route taken. This diary covers the last part of ‘The Big Lap’ anticlockwise around Australia that had started from Queensland’s Gold Coast ( Diary 2) up to Central Queensland, across to Northern Territory, Western Australia and down to the southern coast at Bremer Bay. This final Diary 3 covers the final part of the Lap from the Nullarbor Plain, along the coast of South Australia to Victoria, inland New South Wales and back up to the Gold Coast. That concluded the big trip around Australia, but we decided that we would pay one more trip up to Bowen (North Queensland) and back down through inland Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, before spending time exploring Tasmania.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One reader’s account of the story is: “An ample supply of adventure and hilarity in an entertaining trip across our land featuring a magnificent landscape of characters that comprise America.” The tale involves a cash-starved farmer who attempts to supplement his income by delivery driving motor homes from factory to dealers through the nation and Canada. His intentions are in constant battle between his bad self and good, in opposition from his wife and friends, and in conflict with his farming obligations. Themes cover how this “scaredy-cat wimp” strangely obtains the position, driving up mountains twice unintentionally, trouble and woe when making deliveries to various destinations, weather problems, kidnapping, mechanical breakdowns, a drivers room where arguments flow fast and loose, advice on how to overcome sleepiness while driving, furrowing little pigs while the wife was having a baby, trips to Canada that went sour, ridiculous advice given to motor home drivers, churches that should not have been attended, as well as silly descriptions of motor homes, difficulties following employer’s demands, and facing dealers with impossible expectations. This is a fast-paced tale of travel, adventure, humor, farming, motor homes, and weird characters. A surprise ending waits!

Download or read book Motorhome Prophecies written by Carrie Sheffield and published by Center Street. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the vein of Educated and Hillbilly Elegy comes a young woman’s memoir chronicling her harrowing journey from despair to salvation that showcases the depths and resilience of the human spirit and empowers readers on their own paths toward healing, forgiveness, and redemption. Carrie Sheffield grew up fifth of eight children with a violent, mentally ill, street-musician father who believed he was a modern-day Mormon prophet destined to become U.S. president someday. She and her seven siblings were often forced to live as vagabonds, remaining on the move across the country. They frequently subsisted in sheds, tents, and, most notably, motorhomes. They often lived a dysfunctional drifter existence, camping out in their motorhome in Walmart parking lots. Carrie attended 17 public schools and homeschool, all while performing classical music on the streets and passing out fire-and-brimstone religious pamphlets—at times while child custody workers loomed. Carrie’s father was eventually excommunicated from the official LDS Church, and she was the first of her siblings to escape the toxic brainwashing of his fundamentalist creed. Declared legally estranged from her parents, Carrie struggled with her mental health during college and for most of her adult life. But she eventually seized control of her life, transcended her troubled past, and overcame her toxic inner voice (and a near death experience)—thanks to the power of forgiveness, cultivated through her conversion to Christianity. She evolved from a scared and abused motorhome-dwelling girl to a Harvard-educated professional with a passion for empowering others to reject the cycles of poverty, depression, and self-hatred. Motorhome Prophecies is the story of Carrie’s unbelievable, yet in many ways, very American journey. It resonates with those trapped in difficult situations and awes all who are enchanted by the depths and resilience of the human spirit.
