A little of this and a little of that

Never one to let well enough alone, I decided that Topper needed some more places to plug things in.  So, yesterday and today, I added four outlets. I have ordered some special 120 VAC outlets that also have USB ports for charging various electronic devices.  Most notably, these will be used for charging our two iPhones, Jill's iPad, and her iPod. 

Oddly, the manufacturer didn't put an outlet in the dinette area.  So, one of the new outlets is situated under the dinette table, so we can plug in laptops, etc. I also added an outlet (one of the ones with USB output will go there, when it arrives) to Jill's side of the bed, where there was no outlet before.  I also added an outlet for the TV that we have ordered.  It should be here tomorrow.

My activity got Jill inspired, and she took down the hideous wallpaper border that was peeling off the wall above our bed.  It looks so much nicer without that mess. I mounted a paper towel rack in the galley, as well as a spice rack. So, little by little, we are personalizing Topper.  We have a few more little odds and ends that we want to do this week. 

Next week, we hope to make our annual September getaway. Last year's outing was cut short, because our motor home was in the shop, but we sold her last weekend, and now we have Topper.  Topper is ready to go, even if we don't get all the little projects done that we have on our list.

So, stand by for further reports. Until then, happy trails to you (with apologies to Roy Rogers and Dale Evans.)
