Planning...

Deja vu? There are 20 of us Care-A-Vanners this session of the build (most of us freezing to death in the 60 degree/25 mph wind). What's different this go around? We actually have 3 people under the age of 30 who decided this sort of thing was fun and rewarding. Jake, the guy on the far left in the pink shirt, does engraving for a living. They ship stuff for him to engrave to wherever he's going to be. So he works for Habitat during the day and earns money engraving at night and on weekends. His girlfriend is part of her family's orchard business in Minnesota so is free to travel during the winter. She thought this sounded like fun (plus Jake isn't so bad looking either). The other young woman, with her own trailer I might add, is from North Hollywood and always wanted to travel around the country camping so here she is. Most of the rest of us are retired and... Anyway, this meeting was our first to discuss the build and what we'll be doing.

Notice the arrow in the second photo. It's pointing to our van (it's maroon) completely outdone by the RV we're parked next to. So why didn't I take a closer photo? I just wanted to emphasize the other part of today's planning. This photo was taken at the front door or the women's rest room (the men's is one door closer). Need I say more?
