Summer of 2015 is finally here!

Wednesday 7/1/15

What a long, long, winter we had! But we are now into summer and the Aliner is all prepped and ready to camp. Finally have the clearance from the Dr. for Pat to travel after rotator cuff surgery so we are now planning some trips. The big addition to the camper this spring was the Futon frame that we made. So far, testing only in the driveway, it seems to work just fine. It pulls up into the couch configuration with a nylon strap attached to the top center and a small prop leg at each side drops down into a slotted base to hold the back in position. Putting it back down into the bed configuration is achieved by pushing the props back out of their notches with a short dowel. Not the best arrangement, but it works and gives us much better use of that area as a couch, especially when we have company to visit.
