Let me guess, Steve barely got any sleep last night, for he was up all night tinkering?
Steve, even your preliminary cleaning is night and day. Just amazing.
I admit to having giggled at the No-Cleaning-Supplies-In-The-Car.
Lovely adventure; sounds like much fun for you and your road trip free-spirits. Just love friends like that. My friends think I am weird for having sewing machines; I am not sure any of them would even walk five minutes with me to get one, much less drive 13 hours! ;-)
