Since Benny has to have his canvas replaced and a lift kit added we decided to make the most of it and take advantage of the visit. Last week we emptied everything into boxes and left them piled in the garage. Today I unpacked the boxes to start the evaluation of what we really need to carry. Boy talk about a lot of stuff. It is amazing how much you can pack into a Westy and more to the point how much is just being carried around, and that's before we even get started on the clothes :)
No planning would be complete without a trip to REI for a little inspiration. For those of you looking for beanie's now's the time to buy them as the spring clear out has began. We picked up a few for use during those surprisingly cold summer nights camping in Pacific Northwest forests.
We also bit the bullet and purchased a dehydrator. If you follow along you will know that we follow a strict diet out of choice. The health benefits are amazing but one of our big challenges camping is being able to pack snacks and meals that are easy to prepare and eat. Sarah does an amazing job and anything that can help is a must. She has been looking into dehydrators for a while and today we decided to give it a go. Stay tuned for more on this subject ...
Talking of food, we celebrated our good friends 78th birthday with a steak dinner. Sarah made an awesome cup cake birthday cake with almond flour and she also baked me a batch of my favorite cookies. Now that is being spoiled.
We are excited for the upcoming adventures and hope you have amazing adventures planned. Remember to Max Life Out (every day is a gift).
