Today I went with Nathan, mom, Rob & grandma to the Boyce Thompson Arboretum. Nathan rode in the car, and I took the motorcycle; what a fantastic day to be out on the road on a bike! We had a nice picnic lunch and then wandered around a bit. The wildflowers are in bloom, and the cacti are just starting to bloom. Here’s a few of the pictures I took out there today.

More progress on the benches
This weekend I cut and installed the blocking for the bench seating, started installing the electrical, test fit the water tank, adjusted the linear actuators, and installed the bench seating. I also figured out where the batteries and the junction box will be installed.
Next on the list is building and installing the battery compartment, then installing the rest of the cabinets. With the cabinets installed, it will be time to start cutting into the walls and floor for appliances, wiring, plumbing, etc.
Finally got more work done on the trailer
After three weekends of problems, I was finally able to get some work done on the trailer this weekend. I managed to get two of the three bench seats framed up. They still need the blocking to support the seat, and then the bench going across between them will be the last cabinet to frame. After that, there’s some work to do getting holes cut for the appliances and getting the cabinet frames firmly attached to the trailer. Once that’s done I can work on plumbing, electrical, & LP gas.
There was also some extra distraction this weekend. Kristen came by and we had a bit of an arrow making workshop, so Kristen, Jenn & I all have new sets of arrows!
