Well, I must say that this turned into a very interesting thread. As I was making up the bed in the camper last night, I thought about all the things
that were stashed around the camper and ran through your lists. I am ready!
Leave today for a 2 week trip.
Sorry though I still leave the water in the cooler. As recommended by Coleman. Cold water or hot air?
Hasta

A stack of "gentlemans novels" in the cab to hand out to the troops at the checkpoints to make the camper search quicker and cleaner. Also helps with
trafic stops the futher down you go.

this to the "Links" button on your tool bar... when you click this new entry of your "links" list it will take to the forum list page and you will be

The list hasn't been added to for a while.....so here goes.
List of things to do befor you leave the house.
Have someone pick up your mail and the newspaper, water the plants and feed the cats/dogs/monkey/whatever. Change the answering machine, turn off the
heater/Air conditioner and lock the windows and doors.
Prepare a trip itinerary for the family so they can find you in an emergency. Include a description of your vehicle and license plate numbers, your
planned route and any names of specific places you might be found. Itinerary should also include (especially for us older types) How to gain access to
your Power of attorney, Living wills, Family trust, Ownership certificates and other information they might need should an emergency arise.
THE LIST GROWS AND GROWS.

flashlight and knife. And a good attitude. Also, good to bring your own firewood so you don't have to take from the land.

make one to turn the water pumjp - probably nothing else, maybe alternator, so you can at least drive the vehicle. Hard turning and stopping but
moveable.
I got mine at discount parts place - AutoZone or Kragen ??

Postman------I don't mean to be disrespectful-------
-----but your attitude can get you killed in Baja, unless you stick with the main roads, and plan on being a parasite on others when you get in
trouble---------but, you are not alone, and we read about folks like you from time to time in the obits. Just my opinion, of course.

I've learned first hand that a spare ignition module is a good thing to have with you. Apparently you can loose most other sensors and still drive but
you loose your ignition mod. your not going anywhere.
