    Made a really quick walk around video... I see that i should have taken my time and went over a few more things. I really just wanted to get some video of the lights i installed. I will probably make another one during the day so you can see everything.

    Another camping trip in the books! Went somewhere I had never been, sabine national forest on Toledo bend reservoir. Water was pretty clear to Texas standards, campsite was pretty quiet, I'm think we may have been the only ones there once the sun went down.

    Getting back to working on the trailer some more... added interior pannel to the rear hatch, needed help doing this for a while...., also installed the lights i ordered over a year ago and a switch.

    Planning to install speakers later today. I'm going to stuff one of the channels with pillow stuffing... hoping that will get a better sound out of the speakers. I also need to make some sort of spacer, but the hatch is concaved so I'm still working through ideas on that.

    Its a panel from home depot. Cost $20... the hatch door weighs probably 30lbs give or take.

    Darker colors make spaces feel smaller. Are you adding shelving?
