| It drizzled on and off for a few hours when we first got to the campsite, but it
cleared up well before Natasha and Kurt arrived. We had a really great visit.
We've met Natasha (my second cousin) a number of times, but this was the first
time we'd been able to spend some time with Kurt. We enjoyed ourselves very
much and hope for more in the future. The original dash organizer (i.e., console) was woefully inadequate for holding beverages securely. We looked into a variety of options. We wanted to keep the floor in between the chairs clear, so we bought this unit and Brent affixed it to the original console. It looks awkward and unstable sitting there, but it actually works really good. One of the things I didn't like about Jumbo for long trips was that she didn't have a toilet. That's fine when you're always going to be in a campground (and it's not a pandemic), but if you're going to do a long road trip, you might not always find a campground for every single night. So, one of our criteria when we were looking for Dolly was that the van have a toilet. We haven't actually used the toilet yet, because we've always been at a campground, but Dolly's blackwater tank filled up just from greywater (washing dishes, etc). So, before we left Jarvis Bay, Dolly took a dump. This was a first for us, although I hope it wasn't a first for Dolly. Girl is almost 30 years old so I hope she hasn't been holding it all this time!
