Mom realized that we didn't give you a tour of our van. Dad bought our van back in September. It is a cargo van.

| The van getting ready to become our camper van. |
 |
| Mom's bed is on the right, I am in the middle (my bed extends) and Dad's is on the left. Mom's clothes are in the bins at the end of the bed. |
 |
| We put our food above the chairs. The chairs swivel around so the folks can watch TV when we are parked. |
 |
| We still haven't figured out this space yet. The microwave is on the bottom. Dad's clothes are on the shelf above it. The pet cam can see the temperature in the van. The door next to the microwave pulls out and that is my bed extender. |
 |
| Our sink pulls out. |
 |
| The sink is under the mirror. Our fridge/refigerator is in the cooler under the sink. |
 |
| One side is a fridge and the other is a freezer. It works quite well. |
 |
| The fridge runs on a battery when we are not plugged in. |
 |
This is the bathroom. It is quite small. The shower curtain pulls around it. There is a shower in it. You can see the pet cam on the wall. We hang back packs above Mom's bed when we are traveling. They contain my items as well as Mom's items for showering.

That is basically the tour. It is quite small especially when all three of us are in it at the same time. Most people have the beds pushed together and facing to the right instead of back to front. Dad didn't want to have to crawl over Mom to get out of bed, so that is why he made it the way he did. The carpet and paint are from our condo. My bed is made from our old comforter. It looks like home to me and I really like sleeping in it. We have a butane stove that Mom can use inside. We can grill outside, of course. Mom does find cooking in the van to be a real challenge, so she is concerned about the long trip we are planning for the fall.
We may eventually get a bigger van but Mom wanted something that we could park anywhere and we can definitely do that with this van.
