It's been not quite a month since we brought the little trailer home and it's slowly changing from a tiny house on wheels to a tiny home on wheels. It's set up with sheets, towels, dishes, spices and all matter of staples. The beds are made up, the bathroom is ready for showers and other daily ablutions. Clothes are hanging on hangers and folded in cupboards.
Minimal was the word of the day so we only packed the bare minimum of anything...clothes included! I'm not used to packing minimally and this was quite a challenge. The weight issue is so important so we tried to pack only things that can multi-task. For instance, we have one of those footstools that has a lid and storage inside. It can be a footstool, a storage place and can be a booster to help the Chihuahuas get on the beds. That's a triple-multi-tasker!! It's given us a whole new way of looking at things and deciding what to take.
We've tried the heater and it works like a champ. Good things since it will still be cold as we travel south for a couple nights. We've laid down on the beds and both think we will sleep well. That's a biggie!
We're just about ready to leave on our first adventure. Good thing since we only have about 36 hours before we leave. We're feeling a little nervous about hitching up, using the facilities ...all of them, and even beginning to know what the heck we're doing. We're so worried we'll do something to mess up some major thing! I guess the best way to learn is to just get out there and do it. And we'll keep the trailer manuel right beside us at all times!
Our reservations for our campsite at Edisto Beach, South Carolina is confirmed and we've checked the weather there and it looks like it's going to be in the 50-70's. Yahoo, finally we'll see some Spring!
