The Camper is Road-ready Again!

There are steel cornerpieces inside and outside the camper where the togglebolts pull down, and that gives us a lot more confidence that we will have more visits to the people-groups of the forest thanks to the camper. We are very grateful for the excellent welding and carpentry that went into it.
Another improvement are the two additional solar panels that we'll be taking with us to pump up the deep cycle batteries. (In the forest there are days when you never see the sun, just clouds, so you need as big a collector of sunlight as you can carry with you.

Our camper in Somalomo, Cameroon

Our camper stayed on our truck the whole time we were in Somalomo (19 days).
It was shaded by oil palms. Our shower tent was behind it with a tarp giving us a bit of privacy from those passing on the road.
