Something tangible for the trip out west

My elderly father drove about 40 minutes away to the RV dealership. He ordered a trailer and it is being built in Indiana. It is 16 feet long, has a front window. To the left of the door are two bunkbeds. Across from the bunks are the pantry, sink and stove. The trailer also has a toilet, sink and tub. My brother and dad will purchase a tension telescopic pole to put in the shower area to hang their clothes. There is no clothes closet. The trailer has an I pod, 2 extra stabalizing jacks, a power hitch, 2 hoses and adapters to empty the tanks. The trailer should be ready in 3 to 6 weeks! A tangible aspect of my Dad's dream! Something we can actually see and touch! I am making progress on my low carb life style. I have become acquainted with broccoli slaw! Some meals are easy--chili, tacos, roast beef, chicken. My husband and I both eat these meals without adding too much extra sides, making less work for me. It seems everyone on the online site pretty much goes their own way and there is little interaction. I expected this, but it's disppointing at the same time. Because of El Nino, there is a lot of moisture in the US, causing deadly tornados in the south, thunderstorms on the east coast and a winter storm in other states. A blessed snow day for teachers and students today! Enjoy!
