The weather finally got warm and dry enough to clean Agent May up and take her out for some quick photos. Time to show off the wrap!

Oooooo. Isn't she beautiful?

This weekend we got the vent fan (mostly) installed! This is the result:

Pretend the blurring is just, like, artful hinting instead of questionable photography. And buckle up! This is a long one.

Last Thursday, the fellow at the vinyl wraps shop let me know that he could get the van wrapped early if we could drop it off on Friday. We could! Which means the wrapping started a week and a half earlier than we expected! It also meant that we didn't have the van last weekend.

We did have nice weather, some solar panels, and some bits to make a mounting frame for them. So that's what we did!

First step was to get the solar panels laid out so we could measure the distance between the mounting holes on the bottom. I grabbed some red wire thingydoodles from the shed because they were about the right size and we had a lot of them. We used those as spacers between the panels to give them a little bit of wiggle room.

On either end, you can see the cross bars of the roof rack where this array will eventually be installed.
