It's amazing how such a small addition can make such a difference! The white circular thing hanging under the cabinet is called a "Pop-a-Plate". It's a wonderful invention for anyone using lots of paper plates.

Keeping Busy
Roy and I are keeping busy with projects and enjoying our time with June and Earl. June and I have done some painting and gardening, and made plans for other projects. Roy built this sweet little custom phone, key, remote, and cigarettes holder. The cool thing about the location of the holder is not only that it is by the door and out of reach of our chewing dogs; but that a phone charging cord feeds into the box from inside the cabinet. Inside the cabinet is an outlet that wasn't of any use except for the microwave.

Strange Comment
Roy recently commented that when he gets out of bed and looks down the hall, the camper seems big! Wow! It's 13 feet from the end of the bed to the couch! Although his comment seemed strange, I know what he means and am feeling it, too. There is an adequacy, functionality, and organization to every space in our 24' camper giving it a feeling of being larger than its measurements.

What's Roy Doing?
Have you ever wondered how a camper was put together? Below is a peek into the wall. There's the outdoor siding, 2"x2" studs, insulation, and the inside paneling.
Sometime during the 16 years that we've had our camper, a water leak developed into the interior wall. Roy has tried to seal it with silicone caulking several times, but the water has managed to continue to damage the walls. The damaged area you're seeing in the picture is just the tip of the iceberg, as they say. Roy will be replacing the side wall by the door and the front wall from the base of the overhead cabinets to down behind the couch! Depending on how the interior wall looks behind the cabinets they may need to come out, too! We hope not.

We hope not.When not gearing-up to take on the big camper project, Roy is reading a wonderful book series about elves, druids, monsters, and more! The author is Terry Brooks and the first book in the series is called, First King of Shannara.
Last night he made a wonderful meso soup and sushi dinner!!!
