ready...set...go!

CUSTOM DOG PLATFORM MOD

I built a 60" x 30" platform for the dogs and Hollie made a one piece durable pad for them. She used upholstery foam and ripstop camo fabric sweet. There is just enough room underneath for some storage as well. The bench flips up completely for access. By taking the rear bench seat out of the truck, we gained 12" of additional room for the pups. SPOILED!!!!!!

We are taking off on our trip tomorrow morning, ready or not! The first leg of the trip will be the only planned, rushed leg. As we need to get to Bend, Oregon as early as possible. Hollie is racing The Chain Biter mountain bike race on Sunday! Bend is a great place, so we should have a good time.

LOADED UP

I still have quite a bit of work to do before tomorrow, but I am not going to stress over it. I just dont want to forget anything major, like tools or cook ware. I still dont have a good solution for the poop tube storage either or a solid place for the bike work stand. I think this extended trip will be a great insight to "how to" live in a camper. A lot of note taking and drawing will be done I am sure!

THERE SHE IS...OUR DIGS!

We plan on staying in contact as much as possible...mostly through the blog. We will have internet as long as we have cell reception. So I will try and update everyday...but you never know. Wish us luck and dont be surprised if you see us out in your driveway with our dirty clothes and an extension cord!
