Count your blessings; at least our nomads aren't Steppe Peoples bringing fire and sword in addition to garbage and unsightliness. No Scythians, Alans, Huns and Tatars.

For less than 200 bucks you can buy a state parks pass in California. This allows the RVs into the parks, including the beach parks from 6am until 10pm. Then they head out to the community to squat for the night. They're back at 6am the next morning to start it all over again. Each park has 10 or so "regulars"....Dennis

Colorado Springs, CO recently passed a law that prevents RV's from parking on public streets. There were so many that parking for regular folks was no longer available. They are all older (70's-80's) MH's and 5th wheel's and really made the area look like a homeless camp (which it pretty much is). CA has taken similar action in some of the most over run beach towns but it continues to be an issue (health issues as well) in towns around the US.

My guess is this is a 60’s to mid 70’s motor home. Either Dodge or Chevy chassis we had two of them. One a 68 - 18 footer and a second 72-24 footer.
