"Home" improvement...












Brendan is not painting the baby's room... he's doing way better: he is putting hot water in the flip pac!! Ooouh yeah baby, camping with a hot shower! He installed a sink and water heater inside, and the shower hose and head come out of the side of the truck... to shower in the wild! I don't know much about plumbing and hoses, but it doesn't seem simple... he's almost there though!! It's not quite finished, but here are a few pictures of the work in progress. Meanwhile, Sky and I went to the pool for the first time today :)) I didn't have enough hands to hold the baby and take pictures, but Brendan will come next time so we can get some pictures of our little shrimp ;) Sky's swim suit is just awesome.

Hey Brendan - let me geek out with you for a minute:

Nice Paul. I considered a similar system but then opted for a propane on demand type water heater so that the engine doesn't have to be running and warmed up, and this way we have hot water available inside the camper as well :) I like the system though... very nice.

How does the propane heater vent, Brendan? Do you need to leave a window open or does it vent to the outside?

As y'all said in your post - cold water just doesn't cut it. Nice work.

You got it: open window is the vent. It actually vents really well with the window directly above the vent.
