Getting the van ready for Canada

June 2015 Here it is~! Hi Everyone~!

Trying to get the van ready for the Road Trip to Canada.
The van is not co-operating but we continue to throw money at it~!

Now its the AC so I have decided to replace the complete system, every hose and part there is including the compressor. It has a leak somewhere and when we replace one bit another fails so hope we will have a new system mid week.

28 June 2015 and Still learning Blogger~!  Hope we can start moving north today~!

Afternoon and most packing done.. still some AC problems. A resettable fuse for the AC fan keeps cycling so its being replaced as well as the fuse holder as it looks in poor shape. Hope that fixes.. some other problems showing now :-(  Still hope to get away today.

30 June  Still in Tampa.  New departure target 4 July. Hope to spend 2nd night in Helen Georgia and stay in that area a few days. Cool at night in the mountains.

We have an IP Internet Camera in the van so we can watch what is going on while we are out shopping or in a restaurant... we can see the pups etc and as all windows left open it is our security system too. Pups always have water and 14 windows open + roof vent with fan running. We worry about them a lot so never far away and always monitoring video and sound on our phones. The camera has pan/tilt/zoom which we can control from our smart phones (Galaxy S4) and we can listen in also. We both always have a bluetooth device in our ear. We keep business contacts even while driving this way but may tell business calls that we will call them back.

We can take photos from the IP cam with our phone too.  Here is a sample.

The camera is portable and we can move it anywhere needed.. even outside.
