leaving government camp i was headed south to redmond to meet with wes watts of tiny watts solar
wes and his wife savana were so crucial to me having such a functional and luxurious living space!— early on in my build process i connected with them and they gave me really invaluable advice on my power systems and my set up
there were a few fix it things wes took care of and we also figured out how to get an air conditioner installed
i had realized in the last year and a half that not having air conditioning in my vardo was really going to limit the times and places i could plan summer travel— we decided on the cruise n comfort which gives good power and cooling and wes can install it in one of the flat bed bins and run the ducting up into my vardo from underneath
i visited bend one day while staying in redmond— i had never been to bend before and thought it was a really great city— i went to see top gun maverick in the afternoon and after the movie me and finny went for a walk along the deschutes river trail which was right next to the shopping center
it was a gorgeous afternoon and throngs of people and dogs were out enjoying the water with every imaginable type and size of flotation device— it was a spectacularly joyful scene
we stopped and got some sorbet, then headed back to our hipcamp just in time for the sunset
we saw stunning sunsets and moonrises from our hipcamp parking spot
finny approved of the marrionberry sorbet ;)
