Hi Jackie - Until Kathleen's post, I had no idea who Leonard was, hadn't even 
heard his name before this thread. He might have been mentioned by name in the 
plethora of websites referencing the Slabs, but the name didn't connect. I cued 
in on the "Info" sign and bulletin board for when I arrived at the site.

Thanks for the info. I did a quick Google and found several interesting 
websites and RV parks. I'll check into it more thoroughly although I prefer dry 
camping to full hook-ups. However, I've found that wherever large commerical RV 
parks exist, there's usually freebie or low-cost long-term parking in the 
vicinity.

This list, the SLABS list, and one or two others all ranted and raved about how 
great Slab City was, about all the great people who were there,  about all the 
fun times there, and the major efforts underway to keep the place clean. 
Something was lost in transition. While my expectations weren't particularly 
high, I had not been informed there was a security risk and a criminal element 
residing there.

Something that's safe. And relatively clean. With friendlier people. Not 
someplace that's been trashed, where burglars prowl, and where people don't try 
to bite your head off.
