We were planning on camping in the Grand Canyon next week, but it’s supposed to be very cold. Can anybody recommend a cabin or hotel that is in Grand Canyon or near by? We don’t need anything fancy at all-we’re doing this as part of a road trip where we camp lots of places-but we will need a roof over our heads. Ideas?





Can you walk away from the talking points for a minute and answer this?

Deep Thought asked:

I worked for about 4 years in La Jolla and Del Mar California, truly a beautiful place to visit, if you get a chance. In a lot of the canyons that weave through the $600,000-multi million dollar homes from Claremont to Oceanside, there are migrant farm camps. This is no real secret in San Diego County. These people in these camps who live in the elements that are shot with pellet guns and run out by the cops regularly work for some of the people who live on these hills. Maybe they garden. Maybe they are nannies. Maybe they work in the Carlsbad flower fields. Maybe they do the cooking at Aviara country club or one of the other coastal hotels or farms in the area. They put in work, but they don’t get the benefits for that work. Their employers can afford million dollar homes and expensive cars and barely pay these people who live in the valleys the money to go to Jack in a Box.

Why is the creation of a defacto slave populace acceptable to those who advocate open borders?
To answer a few people who have posted. The situation these people live in, while not slavery de jur (By law) is still de facto slavery (as a matter of fact) because they are so deprived of funds that they will put up with anything to get the cents on the dollar they get here.
I didn’t post this as a way to say “deport them all.” Our country’s unemployment sits between 3-5%. There are jobs to be had here. My concern is if businesses NEED these workers, then why are we as a society allowing them to rob them daily with a wink and a nod. Why are we then being asked to subsidize that need?

rachelrhyme asked:

Time is not really a factor, I can spend a month or so on this. I figure I could do between 15 and 20 miles a day for two or three days and then take a day off to rest. I’m not looking to camp though for safety issues. How would I find the route and information on hotel/motel along the way? Lots of searching online have yielded nothing.
Thanks in advance for any information you folks can provide.

We are planning a trip to Europe for next summer and we really want to do a bicycle tour. We are planning on traveling for two weeks and spending most, if not all, of our time in Italy. I’ve found plenty of bike tour sites but they all have tours that are either 1 day or 7+ days (too long since we want to do Rome and Florence too) and most of them are like $2000+ because they put you up in a 4 or 5 star hotel!! We’re not that pretencious. We really would like to find something for 3-4 days that is cheaper a few hundred per person and we’d prefer camping. Any suggestions of where to look?

gswalker49 asked:

Looking for suggested 7-10 day hikes in France, doing around 15 miles per day. Not camping out, but hiking from town to town, staying in B&Bs or small inns or hostels. Thinking about taking the dog, so suggestions there would be welcome also. Not looking to climb huge mountains (Alps/Pyrenees), but some stress-free relaxation. Time frame would be this August. I’ve heard to stay away from the coast at that time due to crowds. Open to suggestions!

traveler#305 asked:

Were can I find a place to sleep? We have restaurants everywhere. why not places to sleep? or are there? I am not talking about hotels or motels, just a place to sleep undisturbed. is camping the best you can get?

I am thinking about opening a business so people can come to sleep. there will be small rooms with beds and that’s it. it will cost less than 20 dollars a night, about the price of a meal at a restaurant.

megan.jones_march1990 asked:

what ever happened to hard labour and no frills prisons, shouldn’t they be punished instead of rehabilitated? what is your opinion? shouldn’t prisoners loose their rights when they enter prison, your opinion and comments?
EDIT:
In like the 40/50/60s, re-offending rates were 10-20% and they had hard labour with no frills (such a tv, air con and gyms), in the 80/90/00s they are having counciling classes (such as self esteem and anger management classes) and have a lot of frills and the re offend rates are like 80-90%, what was wrong with the old style prisons?
