Picked up this dual-chamber, quick inflate sleeping pad. Mostly for when I'm camping alone, but it works when I'm in the "dog house" too. :smirk:

My friend frequents the local Walmart shopping for rare bargains. He has came across things like $5 Plano storage boxes and the like. He knows the kinds of things that would make my trailer build unique. Last thing he alerted me too was a 12 volt herbicide sprayer. It's 15 gallons in size. We plan on stripping it down and painting it black and reassemble it, so that algie won't grow in it and mounting it on the roof of my off road trailer for potable water/shower. My trailer has been on the back burner for a while. But this winter it will be on the front burner, hoping to get it to where we can use it next year. 16298760494964523771747988289034.jpg

Last thing I bought i don't recall because all of my recent projects were bought almost a month ago or more.. I guess it would be the 3 strands of 16 AWG wire for the chase/rear lights that I've been procrastinating on.... Next up is the final 2 spot pods for my roof rack.

Excited to announce that the new suspension/lift for my Jeep has FINALLY shipped 11 weeks after ordering! Of course I'm away from home for work at the moment as it all piles up on the front porch.................Murphy's Law. Thank goodness for great neighbors, they scooped it all up for me and put it in my garage, whew!

Can't wait to get home to all the boxes and get busy.
