Finished the roof caps I started a year ago, permanant repair is done. Started loading up the camper for the weekend, our dogs got so exited when they saw the camper, they got sick and puked. Happens every time when we leave on trips, they can't wait to go.

I got the floor done in the house, so I got it out and dewinterized it, checked out the water heater, pump, and started getting ready to "CAMP" it seems like a long time ago that we went last.

we are going to the back pasture this weekend.

Not today, but last Thursday. I picked up the truck/camper from the installer. I now have a brand new roof and they also installed my new Fantastic Fan! Getting excited about leaving next week on a trip!! [emoticon]

Actually drove it to work today! We are leaving this evening, towing the pontoon this time so gas stops are a little more difficult and I am going to fill it up at lunch. I work at a "downtown" business and got a few looks.
This week, my husband upgraded the lights to LED. Other than that...just packed and loaded it.

Worked on the truck bed, mine was all dented and the camper did not sit properly. I installed a plywood mounted on 2x3 so I can put the ramp for snow sled for winter use.

Tomorow I will be making some side boxes to fill up with the "just in case" stuff we never need on a trip!!! but that we allways bring anyway!
