Like most roadside stops there is an expectation that the stop should only be 24 hours, but there are no signs stating any restrictions. An elderly couple who left the day after I got there said they had been there a week and I stopped for th...

This is amazing. I wish I had found the GN's site before we started on our vanning adventure.

The dog respon...

So when we get our Grey Nomads stickers, where do you all suggest would be the most identifiable, prominent location on our vehicles and/or vans? When just passing it will be hard to see. If following, then it will be obvious from the rear, if it's stuck on the rear. What do ya all reckon? Chris
