When you go on your Trip you'll probably make more stops because of your knee! I know had same thing & had to go form NY. To Conn.& Use to put my leg up every time I had a break from Driving!👍👌✌️🤞🙌🙏 Well your Garden is growing Great Awesome 💯 Wow your set!

Yes that's what we use. Use to get up on ladder and swept the awning. But with this blower my husband and I just get on ladder and blow it off. It's safer for us at 71 and 81. I bought a extend n retract ladder but it's 35 ponds and kinda heavy, but works great. Folds to like 18 or 20 inches in to itself . And you could put it on your new swing arm carrier. It flat. I have had patients our age with broken ankles, legs, and hips that don't recover good. I would hate for this to happen to anyone. And it could gapped to any of us. After we get to a certain age our bones get weak. Have a safe trip. P.s. I have trouble with my left leg after a long trip and paid attention to how i drive with its placement. It's my left knee. I twist it when I get in and out of the vehicle. Weird.

Hi Lulu. I was on the fence about buying a Berkey because I was not sure what was involved in upkeep. After watching your video on how to prime the filters I purchased one - and got the glass tube so I would know where the water level was. I have been thrilled with it and never regreted spending the extra $. I love my Berkey and want to thank you. The van tweaks work like a charm and gardens look great. Hope your trip is fantastic. Safe travels.

You could squeeze closed one end of your bunggies (with plyers) on the doors to hold your clothes packs in. That way, they will hang in place and not come off completely when you are accessing your socks and bathers. Keep up the great work, I love your channel. Keep the physiotherapy up and heal well.

Great update video! ❤ As for your water bottle holder, there is a flip up cup holder that you might be interested in. Hope your knee is better. Ice it and raise it might help. When use Berkey, it’s best to wait until almost empty to refill so the filters will be evenly used so the bottom part of filters are over used. You may want to have an empty jug to empty the filtered water for later use to empty bottom section before refilling the berkey. Have fun with your plans. ❤

Hun you shouldn't be climbing like that with your knee. If it was to give way you could have gotten hurt really bad. Please next time just let the camera man clean it lol. Or go to a car wash that has a cat walk for cleaning big trucks and spray it off with the pressure washer. We can't have you hurt love your channel and attitude to much. I had to have both knees replaced because I was stubborn lol. I thought about one of those steps for my van but not sure with my knees I could do it. If you would like to come the weekend of the 17th 18th and 19th we are having a KZfaq meet up in Waveland Arkansas at Waveland park, Would love to see you there.

@@LulusWay64 Yes, you can strengthen muscles surrounding your injured (bad) knee but you can’t stop the aging process of cartilage deterioration that cushions your knee. A ladder would help lessen the pressure on your current healthy knee and also prevent you from falling and causing more injuries to your body. Bones and joints weaken no matter how many vitamins and minerals you add to our diet. As you age you need to take simple preventative measures to protect yourself. I watch another young van woman traveler who stores a compact, light ladder to use when she needs access to her roof. I only wish the best for you on your adventures.

As soon as I heard you talk about your porch swing, my light switch came on. I have been looking for small couches to fit a short wall where my steel house door sits. A porch swing on chains will fit perfectly or close. I was trying to figure out a couch where I could slide a 51" long x 12" deep x 16" wide storage bins I got for $12 each at Wal Mart after Xmas sale. I got 3. If the swing is not long enough, I can use the end as a side table with just a piece of plywood. I can make cushions that match the material on the walls. I have to take my box truck to weigh it as soon as I get fridge and stove installed. This swing would not add much weight win-win. Have fun on your trip. Ace bandage reinforcing the boo-boo will go a long way toward getting better fast. Get the widest one they have. I got one at a medical supply for $14.00. See you on your journeys.

The water filter has a clip that goes on the bottom tank to allow air to flow through the bottom tank because I had issues with mine slow flow because it was not getting air in the bottom tank. Once the clip is on the bottom tank it allows air inside of the bottom tank.

Nice gardens, Lulu. How are you going to plant when you get back with your knee out of whack? Can you leave the fabric on the garden for a few years or does it disintegrate? Have a safe, fun trip to your daughter's house. Stay safe.

easy breezy!! I'll just kneel down and put my weight on the good knee!! after some research, I found a landscape fabric is that more sturdy and will last 10 years!! I will be using that on the rest of the garden beds when I get back!! thanks for writing!!

Hi Lulu Hope you are having a good day today. I have the right knee issues, mind going to my athletic competitions downhill skiing career . Also my professional WTA (tennis)career. I was told to have a complete knee replacement but both times there were issues, so I stopped . Still no knee surgery. I really can do everything I need to do. I'm slower than I used to be but I still keep going . Recovering from my foot surgery with toes and bones removed and I was driving after 4 days of the surgery. Had a few problems but I'm surviving very nicely. Nothing helps me with the knee pain, I just use Tylenol. So I'm planning on going out in either an Equinox SUV or if I can find a minivan. Maybe in the fall Tuscan Arizona or if that doesn't work I'm definitely going to be in Florida after Christmas. That's my plan Lulu you are my model I'm trying to follow you in your Van Life adventures

I’m telling you, I agree w some of the comments and I know you’re stubborn!! That ladder system is not a good idea, ESPECIALLY with one bad knee. Having been diagnosed w osteoporosis I spend time on mindfulness, balance and fall prevention and i hike, kayak, do yoga. Unfortunately accidents still happen but one must try as much as we can to prevent mishaps. My yoga/tai chi instructor fell and fractured her hip. Recovery took a good while. One wrong slip and a sore knee might look like a walk in the park. Just sayin’. Let someone in your household clean off those solar panels. Give this some serious consideration. Ok I’ll get off my soapbox now and say I’d love to come up to the Missouri meetup but I think it’s a little too far ( well 7 hrs, I’d have to stay overnight somewhere w the doggos) but hopefully sometime in the future I can come to a meetup.

What did you do to your knee? I’ve been off line for a few days because i cracked a disk in my back. I’m doing fine, gaining on the pain and I can’t ask for much more. When i saw you climbing on that step I thought there is an accident waiting to happen so glad it didn’t. The heat in Maryland took me out. Hugs, please take care!!!

Did you do your van yourself? Amazing amazing amazing. You’re in Missouri.? This week they’re going to start on changing some things in my 1989 Toyota dolphin I bought last month It’s not gonna be a whole tear out or anything. It doesn’t need just some things I want changed in it. I’d love to go to that in Missouri. I live in Missouri where is it going to be and when? I might’ve missed it because I was texting the people that are gonna do my RV..

@@LulusWay64 Interesting, I worked in offices in various capacities, also customer service. The office jobs gave me the stability (sort of) and hours I needed to raise a daughter on my own..... At 63, quite by accident I needed a change, I just could no longer sit in an office anymore being responsible for so many things out of my control and stumbled into food production work, first as a temp and the last two years full-time....oh what an eye opener!!!! I needed a job that was physically busier however at this point it's a bit too physical but, almost wrapped up and it has helped immensely in ensuring I'm not as seat of the pants in retiring as I try and wean off if it. It has also helped me physically work off lots of the angst in my life that I kept pent up. I was one of the only people my age that was getting old and angry and kicking and screaming....still not into the total Buddhist type acceptance of 'stuff'. I thank God I'm strong enough to have done this but it has taken alot and many things have been left out in the process.... All said, I love how other women my age are grabbing hold of their lives....they are phenomenal....you are phenomenal. I find this especially among the vanlife group. Thank you for your inspiration Lulu, I have a feeling you understand this all. ♥️🇨🇦
