Total investment is now approaching $300.00 with a bit more to come.

The ‘shakedown run’ will be tomorrow (Friday) when I take a day of vacation and head for The Lot. I hope to get started on mounting the tanks and plumbing and get a list of the other bits and pieces I will need to make the tailer work as intended; a platform for the cistern tank and honey wagon tank. More to come!

That’s it for now. Thanks for looking in!

Pam’s Two Cents Worth:

What Fields didn’t mention is the generator is still at the repair shop.  Without the generator, the honey wagon is a no-go (so to speak).

Happy Trails.

    Hopefully the “shakedown run” went well. At least you have a viable plan for water and sewerage – generators are available, if your current generator can’t be repaired for a reasonable price…

    “no go” = bwahahahaha!

    Looks good Jer. Love the red fenders. Hopefully the maiden voyage went well.
