    You're an amazing fur baby mom. I am so happy that you are being able to hang and have such an amazing time with Phoenix. I hope that he lives his best life with you this summer and continues to do well. You sound like you're doing everything that you can. As a fur baby mom too, I understand your love for your baby and how much you want to give him a good life. Keep strong and enjoy each moment.

    I like your set up, I have been spending my summers traveling and living out of my teardrop for the past 8 years, some of my solutions, for storage have been Front Runner soft storage boxes and ATC storage bags, hope this helps you out. Prayers for you and your pup.

    From what I understand and all the videos I've watched, wind can be a real problem in the desert so a lot of times people are not able to set up anything that can fly away or get ripped up. I purchased the Kelty back roads shelter which can be used in the back of my teardrop or on the side. It's not as nice as yours is. I am really hoping I can anchor it down enough that it will be okay in mild winds. I think winds can be the bane of our existence as teardrop dwellers. I had to chuckle when you said you wish you had done this sooner because I'm going to be 67 this year and I'm finally getting around to do it. You're lucky you are so young and getting out there now. I agree, it is harder but worth the trouble I think. I too am hoping to get out on the road this summer.
    I think you're making the right decision for your dog both with the surgery and giving him his best life. He seemed so happy with you just in that week. Total joy. I'm looking forward to following your adventure!

    • @MicheleShanklin
      @MicheleShanklin  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh yeah the wind was brutal! I was actually really impressed with how well the tent withstood it. I actually looked at that kelty tent. It looks awesome but I needed something mounted since I’m running out of storage room 🤣 I did find these little discs you can get to weigh down the anchor points. They were on Amazon. I ordered those to hopefully help.
      Oh I hope you get out this summer as well and enjoy all the adventures! Where are you thinking of heading?
      I’m already missing living in it so I’m ready to be back out already. It’s totally worth it!
      Thanks for watching and commenting 🧡

    • @MicheleShanklin
      @MicheleShanklin  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh how exciting!! I love that so many people are going after road life! Right now I’m using my T-Mobile home internet but for long term I have a pep link router and parsec antenna (doesn’t have to be mounted full time) with AT&T and TMobile SIM cards.

    Like Gary said in the comments, I think rolling the clothes Marie Kondo style might be a good way to go and have the ends facing you so you can quickly see what it is.

    Hi there, just wondering what lake you're at? I've got all these lakes around me here in the Phoenix area but it's just too hot right now to go camping. Was checking out one up North but it's closed and it looked kind of neat maybe in September. Safe traveling with you and your executive assistant. 😊
