I was reminded today of the classic Robert Earle Keen song, "The Road Goes on Forever", except in my case, it's not the party that never ends, it's the tinkering and modifications!
I'm planning to make some changes to my expedition trailer and wanted to take advantage of the first nice weather we've had in a while. Since it was already out (we're moving so the garage is impossible to get into), I figured I'd start by cleaning it and making some minor repairs.
On my last trip I found myself wanting an easily accessible place to put gear in it, so I took a cargo net I had lying around and mounted it to the top frame bow. This should hold books, extra clothes, etc...
Also, I'm about 90% certain that I finally figured out a way to mount a table securely/solidly onto the side of the trailer while it's in camp. I've been fiddling with this idea for a long time and finally found a solution for it. I need some metal first, though, and the two places I hit this morning didn't have what I'm looking for. More on this later....
The final step (he, he, of *this* round of mods, I guess) is a solution for illumination, sleeping arrangements, and even hygiene (one mod for all three...intrigued?); I've spent hours trying to figure this one out too, and I think I have the answer. Again, more on this later....
I'll leave you with some pictures, as you can see, my 2-yr old son was very eager to help by playing in the "lil house"!
