Spring is Van Fun Time

Ben has been very busy adding features to the van!

First, he is working on adding a hot shower.  This is an on-demand propane hot water heater.  We will be able to shower out the back of the van!














Here is a cabinet extension we can use while cooking or cleaning up afterwards.  It will be nice to have a place to put dishes.  It can also be used for your drink when the weather is awful and we have to eat inside the van.

It's January and we are beginning to plan for the year ahead. This means it's time to work on the van! To begin with the van is getting a new paint job. The paint they used just isn't lasting. We saw a van in Minnesota that was the same vintage as ours and it had a terrible rust problem. We have put so much work into it that we don't want ours to end up the same way. Next, we are adding a toilet and a shower. The porta potti showed up in the mail today! Now we can stealth camp if we need to. Ben found a fantastic shower setup with a 12volt pump and on demand water heater. More about that will be up coming in the future.
