Short Trip

 Tues. looked like it was going to be a perfect day so off we went. It was not! The predicted temps was supposed to be 80F. I have no idea what it was but we roasted. I was afraid Fred was going to have heat stroke so I kept wetting him down. When I finally finished setting up and sat down under the chair umbrella and added more shade with the folding table he finally settled down. Trying to give him all the shade I was pretty much with the sun on my back. He did have shade before but I think his being deaf has effected his sense of security. Even at home if he can't see me he starts to whine.  

Anyway it was just so hot and I did bring a fan but it did nothing for inside the camper. I need to find the ones everyone is raving about that can be charged with usb. But until Fall I'm sure I won't be going anywhere. If I had been alone I think I would have managed but couldn't take the chance. Got up very early and had very little sleep and struggled with staying another night but knew it wouldn't work and they called for higher temps. So packed up and sat and had half a cup of coffee and enjoyed the nice cool morning. Around 7am I loaded up Fred and headed for home.

Just a few pictures of camp 

I don't know what has happened to my computer as far as pictures go but it doesn't put them in order as you load them, and there are pictures missing. I had a picture of Fred in his bed at my feet and a picture of the table set up. Guess it's time to see the Geek Squad 

I took his bed out and put it next to me at the chair. As I look at this picture I don't even think it was from this trip, but the set up was pretty much the same but the table was set up this trip to show the stove and some of the collapsible items and the wind screen I made for around the stove, it worked great there was quite a breeze 

I kept trying to making the blanket stripes straight but I had to keep going in and out and had to put the bungie cord to keep the door from swinging all the way back. The curtains do not match but when I first set this camper up I couldn't find anything to fit so I went with these from Big Lots before they closed the store nearest to where I live. I really don't want to spend anymore money until I know I am going to continue to camp. I added the little drawer unit that I already had it sure helped to store more things out of the way. I glued a floor tile to the top so I can set things up there a clock, water and cup for brushing teeth. The drawers hold wipes meds, note pads, pens, glasses all sorts of things. The luggable loo is covered with the bag the sheets came in LOL hey it matches the sheets and pillow. Photos are from when I used to travel around Northeastern White Mountains, but you really can't see them in the photos

The blanket was definitely not needed, and as you can see I brought along crocheting which due to the heat I never touched

Good Night All
