30 Days Till We Roll

Living with The  Rectangle when not Living in The Rectangle

UPDATE ON THE GETTING READY TO TAKE TO THE ROAD:
*There are now things that have to be done like wash sheets/towels/an anything else just to put it back into The Rectangle    check it off  all clean and ready to roll
*Let Miss Kitty snoop around inside The Rectangle  check it off Miss Kitty has done the inside check
*Redust everything and vacuum again  check it off nice and clean
*Unload all the food and check for those spices that are out of date. Not sure why I have all those spices except all the big cooking plans that are in my head and never make it out of my head.  check it off and the many many spices not good were spread over the ground and some in the compost
*Give The Rectangle a really good bath!  check it off  BUT it still needs a nice wax before we roll
*Check all those tires to make sure they will make the next big trip in good shape.  Interesting story here
*Make an appointment to take The Rectangle in to have the front end alignment checked (wear on tires not even?) and cruise control not working (a long trip without cruise control is not good), and propane shut off for refrigerator reset or whatever it needs (safety first). Interesting story here too
*Design and make a holder for the front car safety guard for TJ (our Tow Jeep Cherokee) so when The Rectangle is at rest and TJ is in action the safety guard can be on hold till needed again to protect TJ from road rocks, bugs etc. when trailing behind The Rectangle. This entails welding and luckily our neighbor can do that.  check it off  nice job of design by David and welding by our neighbor perfect  picture soon
*Buy a waffle maker -- need a waffle maker. Could take the one from home but it is a rather large one and storage is always a consideration in The Rectangle, so maybe a smaller one?  check it off  thanks to my BFF who had one she was not using The Rectangle now can make waffles.
*Check out the number bed mattress for a leak? or a pump issue? Small white caps were sent from Number Bed people so now to get on phone with them and figure out how to run "the test" on that...will keep you posted on this.  check if sort of off  Test done and they sent us a new pump (for a small handling fee) and story to follow as we try to install before we roll.

30 Days before we leave….time still to get some things done like we both got new eye glasses so we can see all the beauty on our trip.
