Camping We Will Go

I have been looking for a jig 

that was in my budget 

and that would give me a little more 

(a lot more) independence.

I was about to give up . . .

When driving to my sister-in-law's

a little over a week ago I spied

this with a "For Sale" sign in the window.

I almost didn't stop because I 

thought it would be over

what I wanted to spend.

 

 

But instead it was a very well

maintained 2009 with . . . get this,

brand new tires and brakes.

Steve would like that :)

Yes, on my test drive I took it to our

friend, who is a mechanic and he

drove it, put it on the racks 

and gave it a good look over.

  This will give me a way

to run errands that I was depending 

on others to do for me . . .

Sometimes you just need something bigger

than your car to haul things.

 

 

 Well, after having it for a week,

and a bit of plywood from Steve's stash.

 

a bit of fabric from my stash

 

some small pieces of furniture,

that I had intended on putting

in a yard sale

 

and some camping gear we already had . . .

Hey, if a girl has to use a port-a-potty

she wants it cute, right?

 

 

This is the way the back looks now. 

under the bed I have two storage bins

and room for our fishing poles. 

 

 

I screwed that wooden box to the 

top of this little school desk

so that I could store small easy 

to get to items,

but I can still lift the lid 

for more storage. 

 This little cabinet has a glass door,

so I thought it would be a great

place for snacks that don't need to be on ice

and safely tucked where the dogs can't get them :)

I fastened it down with wire on the back side.

Hopefully nothing will be flying around 

while driving. 

 

That's it . . .

now when a friend says

"let's go camping"

I'm ready to roll. 

Well, that's my post.

I hope you enjoyed it.

Remember to put God first . . .

the Lord is always there waiting 

for you to say "hello"

He wants to be in your life . . .

protecting and guiding you each 

and every day :)

 

God bless you,

Your blogging sister,

Connie :)
