Well, the camping season is basically done for me (getting too old for winter camping), the Jeep has been put to bed for the winter, and it's nearing Santa time; so it's once again time to start thinking about equipment changes and improvements for next year...
I still have to figure out a headboard for the cot, to avoid chasing the pillow in the middle of the night (somehow this, like the pillow keeps falling by the wayside).
Found (ordered yesterday) a small propane generator (700 watts, Ryobi; Home depot ~$300) to recharge the tent battery (hopefully making use of the portable refrigerator practical)... It appears to be noisier than most, so it may be a mixed blessing... (The increase in stuff volume means I will have to use the explorer when carrying these).
Need to keep my eyes open for the perfect sized, collapsible washbasin (the stainless bowl that I have been using is a bit on the small side).
Still need a better shaving mirror for the tent or acceptable support for the existing ones...
Need to fabricate a shelf over the Jeep's rear fender well to better carry the water container...
Need to pick up a grommet kit so that I can customize the ground tarp holes to line up with the tent's peg locations...
What changes/stuff are you wanting?
Enjoy! |
