I like the green more now that it's darker, Brain.
Looks great overall.
I'm off to give blood. I've been drinking extra water all day and eating healthy stuff. Should be ok. I almost passed out driving home last time I did this, but it was spur-of-the-moment and I wasn't prepared, plus I took off from the bloodmobile too soon. I will do better this time.

Lunar, I went out into the garage just now and crawled on the ground to look at the tires on the camper trailer... they say DOT 0813. So that means they're not even three years old yet. They look fine. We just need to replace the spare on the back (the one that dates back to 2004). Don't you think ?

Only 3 years old, but for a trailer, tires should be changed soon.
The internal oil oxidizes or dry rots from sitting still.
Put the max air pressure in them, run them around
locally, before taking a long trip. This will eliminate the
chance of "flat spots".
In any event, enjoy, sister!
Any tire questions? I'm here.

The backyard looks excellent, Brainy!
And it provides a fantastic sober inspirational timeline!
Tetra, I think everyone at work talks about everyone all the time. It just feels like it's part of the workday. When I was a waitress, we would go out drinking until 4 am after every shift and slander slander slander. Ugh. Now at jobs I just stick to myself, or find a trusted buddy to confide in.
I've done nothing except nap all day and it's been wonderful. More of the same, please. Carry on.

This is 30" tall, Lunar. It will fit in the camper. I measured.
The black stuff on the 'windows' in the canvas wasn't mold. It's ugly black spraypaint.
We will have to replace the canvas at some point.

Sober P ~
Neat lil Unit. We used similar rented ones at Euro Trade Shows. I can't blow up the Pic. So, some possibly-goofy concerns here.
Are those Electric Burners? If so, 120 Volts or 240 Volts?
If they're Natural Gas, they'll need to be re-Jetted for Propane. It has a different Heat Coefficient.
Is the Fridge section 'Dual Mode' to where it can run off of Propane or 120 Volts? If this slick lil Unit is made for Trailers, then all this is irrelevant.
On Tires, Trailer Tires are a whole different Animal. They're spec'ed out differently than Vehicle Tires. Also, Tread Type/what they're made of matters. Tire Sidewall strength is really important. The only Link on this I could find quickly sells 'stuff', so I can't post it.
Make sure them Wheel Bearings have been greased/serviced.
Have fun! We sho do...
A lil Rain action this morning...

I will look all that up, Mesa. Thanks for helping. I need all the help I can get on this camper deal, lol. It's our 'first.' And I seem to have better ideas than he does so far.
It's electric, I know that for sure. I'll look into the specs...
Ok...
Compact Kitchen:
Stainless Steel Sink with Chrome Faucets
Stainless Steel Countertop
Two Electric Heating Elements (500/900 Watts)
Power Indicator Lights
Seperate Storage Area with Door
Two Drawers
Integrated Backsplash
Refrigerator:
2.2 Cu. Ft. All-Refrigerator
Reversible Door - Left or Right Swing
Two Adjustable/Removable Slide-Out Shelves
Door Bins For Additional Storage
Full Range Temperature Control
Integrated Door Handle
Energy Star
120 Volt
Aww, I just noticed the height is 45" and the width is 30"... it seemed just the opposite! It might not work in the pop-up after all. It needs to be under a certain height.
Reading futher, it states it's 'residential' but one reviewer says he installed in his camper successfully.

No off-Grid Cooking with 120 Volt Cooktop. You'd need a Generator.
Here's some 2 Burner Propane types below. Propane/120 Volt Fridges are pricey, but kewl. They allow off-Grid Food Cooling, and run on Propane while you're toodling down the Road. Otherwise, consider a 120 Volt Dorm Fridge. Stack the Cooktop on top of that. Pop a recycled Sink into a used piece of Countertop.
I built this House while living p/t in a Palomino Pop-up w/2 Queens. Beds, that is...
Just started the Grill. Gotta run...

Congratulations to ladyblue's daughter! And GS!!!
I agree- that pile made me feel tired just looking at it brain! And the lunch looked very tasty! Yum!!
Sao- I was thinking of i won the lottery I would not change my life- I would just live in a nicer house.
This tells me I'm on the right track.
