First Night

 We spent our first night in the camper on the day after Christmas. Originally, it was intended to be a kind of demo night to see what we had, what we needed, and what adjustments we might need to make. It wasn't intended to be permanent.

However, the next morning we exchanged emails with our real estate agent and she's aiming for a very aggressive time frame. So now we're in the camper semi permanently. Surprise!

We're moving a bunch of stuff into storage to get the house ready for market, but we're also getting the camper ready to live in. Water and power are hooked up.

The next week or two is going to be crazy, but hopefully it'll calm down a bit after that.

All in all, it just wasn't sustainable. If I'm going to be spending a few months going in and out of that door multiple times per day, I want a decent set of stairs to climb.

One guy made single stair units that nest into each other for storage, and then stack on top of each other for use. I wanted to go that route, but his steps weren't exactly easy to follow and I didn't really need extreme portability for my purposes. We don't plan on moving the camper at all for a few months, and the built...
