looks like you have a perfect little set up there cookie, and housework probably takes you about 5 mins a day if you can be bothered. Would love to be eating some of that fresh fish also.

Cookie, I am jealous. We used to go camping a lot when the children were smaller (mine). We had a Jayco pop up. Recently our business has kept us too busy so power holidays have been the go. My DH wants to get a new VW combie van customised and travel with that, when we retire I think.

Cookie, what do you about food, it costs a fortune up there. How much can you take up with you.

Looks very nice and everything you need.
Love the idea of the flag.  Quick look out the window.  Fishing yes/no.  Good book  yes/no..    :)
We had planned to travel but suddenly having full time care of DGS put that on hold.
We are now in the process of changing to home schooling him and that may give us a bit of freedom.

Hally, we bring a lot of food with us. We bring a freezer that is stocked with meat and pre- prepared foods and vegies. All I buy in Denham is lettuce and tomatoes. We have the bread maker.

CP you are right about the housework. Wipe over the shower and toilet, sweep the floor. Once a week wipe over the surfaces for the dust. No ironing. DH puts the washing on while I'm still goofing off in bed. We have a tiny twin tub machine with us too.

Talk about taking the kitchen sink with you Cookie  :o  Surely that doesn't fit in the van somewhere?

No Judy, it goes on the back of the van in it's own little box. DH loves making boxes for everything.

Everyone singalong now -

Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky-tacky,
Little boxes, little boxes,
Little boxes, all the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.
