Box Kite on the Road

I am on the Road found a KOA and got on the net on my second night.

when I first loaded up I was tired and had some problems with the rear hatch I had poorly locked it down from the inside loaded the rear from the inside then came around only to find my lock job was poor.
after a long time of figuring I got it locked from the outside, soon like on hot days like here I can open the hatch and put a door chain on the inside so it will be partly open and I can get cross air. New window is a blessing and if the other door were not made of 2 pcs I would have it in too.

Nice windows work well got from Tag-a-long trailers in Reading, CA.

We got to take all the stuff out on the second stay to organize it better. did not get off untill 5pm and got to tehachapi, CA by 11 pm could not get into the bed with out filling the car first and then only half the bed was out my legs could not straighten and hurt all night.

AZ has a strange place on 40 at the beginning and I may have gotten a ticket for it. there is a part that has a statement do not pass has to lights in white for 2 miles. I got confused and thought cars were on the right and trucks on the right and crossed it. when I get home I may have a ticket I still do not under stand this strange road set up it is like a speed trap.
