    AMAZING!! Thank you, Richard. One of the things we are missing most is camping since the injury. I have a vintage '64 camper and now my husband can no longer get into. Which breaks my heart to no end. Oh the memories...
    He has a van, so we def can convert it, so it can pull my camper. Although he will no longer camp with our two baby kitties inside, at least he can stay in his van at the same time..
    Gawh dang, I missed when you were on your disappearance (especially you did it when we were newly injured). Please do not do that again! ha. FOR US, at least!! :)
