Little things

It is often the sand in our shoes, not the boulders we walk on, which cause the most discomfort.  The rods which hold he pop-out tent bed canvas have always irritated me when they are not in use.  They store under the folded bed mats - but it is awkward, and to me, it seems like I can't get to them in the right order when setting up and tearing down. 

Here is my solution:

Broom clamps mounted under the overhead shelves above the folded tent beds.  Care had to be taken with the hook end so that it didn't flop downward.  Also, I tried to place the clamps so that none of us would scrape our heads on them getting in and out of the tent beds.  (Ken is notorious for scraping his head on things!!)


I haven't mounted the other one yet, it is a bit more awkward and I need to unfold the tent to get to the area.  However, while I had the drill and screw gun, I did mount clips for a new broom.


Tonight, the camper goes for inspection, so I cleared out most of my cleaning supplies and made the inside travel-ready.  I may do one or two more little things out there today.  

Tomorrow, I will bring the tow vehicle back behind the fence and we will completely haul it out and clean it, dealing with any organizational issues in it as well.  Bear country means keeping our food, camp stove, toiletries, and dirty clothes in the tow vehicle and not in the soft sided camper, so some significant organizational hacks will be needed.
