Hey everyone, sorry I just joined tribe today so my profile is lacking, but I also have a profile at www.myspace.com/starrdst81. Anyways, I sold everything and went to Burning Man determined to start a new way of life that was in tune with my beliefs and values. I travelled to San Francisco after the burn and realized that it was not a city where you could just "crash" by finding cool people. Anyways, that's all good. So I got an RV which seemed like a good deal, but it had been sitting for awhile and there have been several problems since then and now I'm stranded on King St. and Ashby in Berkeley and any day the city is going to tow me away. So my post is two fold. Does anyone know a good mechanic that could come to my RV? Also, does anyone own or know of someone who owns a patch of land - a parking space or piece of yard that's not being used, etc. . . where I could park my RV for a rental cost? I don't need any connections. I'm really desperate at this point and am hoping there are people in this area as helpful as they were at Burning Man. I'm trying to get involved in the wonderful things going on here but have a hard time doing that without a steady living situation. So if you also know of anyone with a room for rent or something like that, please let me know. And if you just want to hang out, that would be cool too!
Thanks!
Thanks!

Looking for a spot to park your trailer / RV with hookups for electric and water? For $150/week you could be living on a beautiful piece of property in Corralitos (between Santa Cruz and Watsonville). Enjoy peace and quiet -- beautiful vistas -- and the association of horses, chickens, deer, a few dogs and cats and some mellow neighbors.
If you're interested answer this ad and let us know your situation. If it sounds like a viable match we'll contact you and work out the details.

Re: Stranded in Berkeley
Thu, November 16, 2006 - 8:45 AMYou can get a good sam's membership for like a hundred bucks and then you can get free-towed - they only want to tow you to a shop, but if you find a place to stay you can say that it's your mechanics house or something.
Good luck, I know it sucks to be stuck.
