Today:

SAM_0521-1 Now that the Houston Livestock Show, Rodeo and Spring Break are over, the plan is to go to the Formica distributor in north Houston, to get some Formica for the cargo trailer's kitchen counter top and table. Until we have the counter top Formica-ed, it is holding up progress.

I will be carry samples of the paneling, lino, drapes, etc. so that it all matches.  I had picked up some samples at Home Depot and Lowes, but they charge about $40 to special order it.  Also, by going to the distributor, they often have some in the clearance area, which would be cheaper, so I might have to adjust my color choices.  I don't need much, so I don't need to buy a big roll of it, anyway.

 

While we are way south of Conroe, I will be picking up some RV parts at Camperland, today.

Was down in Terlingua last April and would like to head back down there again this year. Nice country and nice people.
