Here's what we bought today! A 21 foot camp trailer. We'll post more pictures when we get it home and cleaned up and moved into... it's going to be our "storm home".

It's as old as I am, but it's very clean inside. The goal is something that can be out in the pasture, self contained and away from the trees, that is more comfortable for us and the dogs to sit in on those bad nights than the cab of the Ranger.

We should have lights and heat and we should stay dry, unless we get swept away by a twister. ;~) For long term sustenance after the storm blows over, if the power is out we have the generator and the house and the barbecue and other ways to live. We just need a storm home that won't get hit by a tree. And I guess I just like the idea that if, heaven forbid, a tree does fall on this house, we have a place to sleep while we, and the landlord figure out what to do.

The thing on top of the table is actually an AC unit. We won't use that in the trailer but we may use it in the house! :~)

Cool camper. Hal is looking for one to take to his hunting club. He is halfers with a guy on one already, but the shower doesn’t work and he is tired of taking showers with the hose out back in the winter time. I wonder.....does that have anything to do with him being sick most times he comes home from hunting????

Good idea with the camper. Are you going to anchor it down in anyway?
