Total Noob, I have a question

So I may have an opportunity to purchase a camper trailer for work rather than staying at hotels for the next year or more. I will be going home each weekend, but during the work week will be staying 4 nights near the construction site.

I want to keep storage/stay costs low, but everywhere I look the trailer camping areas are like 28-day max stays and over $1,000 per month. Seems a little high for me, but I don't know.

If this were you, how would you approach this? Should I just stay the 3-4 nights each week in an RV park and bring my trailer home each week (about 90-120 minutes from the site), or should I try and find a place that will allow me to stay long-term?

It's not much, but it's a start. Pollinator plants FTW

The house I bought a couple of years ago has a HUGE lawn here in Northern Utah, USA. The front yard had some unsightly bushes in the park strip and after slow and steady work I got them removed and I planted these perennials instead of a lawn.

​

I also planted daisies and sunflowers in the dirt around these flowers to fill in until these get larger.

​

Eventually I will to remove more of my lawn. I still want some lawn, but significantly less than what I have.

Flagging while mowing makes finding them later way easier

I got a photography pipe clamp stand, some PVC, and flags and I just mark my weeds as I go along. I currently only have 2 types of weeds; morning glory and dandelions. Morning glory gets a "Kills weeds not the lawn" spray and dandelion types get pulled with Grampas Weeder.

Upgrades, upgrades, upgrades

First it was "I'll just get a gun for home defense and self defense while camping, I don't need anything special." Then a couple weeks after buying it I was like "Hmm, maybe I'll get a green dot sight" and then a couple weeks later "I need a flashlight too, what if I need it at night!" And then I was like "A compensator is cool, and a little practical, I'll get one of those too. Oh I guess I need a new barrel for it too!"

And here I sit, with a gun that has just enough accessories haha. Now I think I need a gun for my garage, and one for my home office, and maybe a few more, just in case....

My beekeeping mentor got some great pics of my queen. She's beautiful!

My hive with this queen is doing amazing, while my other hive is a dud with laying workers. Beekeeping is weird 😂

Biked to the word's largest wooden trestle

Epic ride down to Goat Canyon trestle bridge. Plenty of sketchy areas down the single-track, went trough many tunnels and avoided all the cholla plants and punctures.
