Retirement starts soon. There is no prognosis on how long I will live with this type of breast cancer, so I am retiring at age 62. Going to build a boat cause I don't know much about American rivers and I intend learning.
Saturday, just back from another K-Mart store revamping. I've a chance to put together a needs lists This is a minimum list...
1. I enjoy warm, more like really hot showers. So buy or make a solar hot water shower bag. A mast would be a life place to hang it up in the sun. 2. A mast. So I think I will be making some kind of a sail boat or maybe a solar panel electric boat with the panels following the sun around a mast. 3. Lines coming down from the mast to support a shower curtain ring. So there should be pulleys to raise the mast and to lift up the sails, solar panels, and shower stuff. 4. Potty breaks require a 5 gallon bucket, a toilet seat with a box to mount it on and a bucket of wood shavings or sawdust. Oh, yes, toilet paper. Never did like newspaper that much. 5. A shovel to bury the waste and a clip to hold the shovel.
6. Plastic containers to hold spices, food, soap and paper. 7. Soap, bright towels, razor, blades, plastic gloves, hair brushes and hair ties. Medications, aluminum foil and baggies. 8. Nesting pots for cooking, tin plates and flatware. 9 Place to sleep- a ground sheet, sleeping pad, sleeping bag or blankets, large bags to keep these in. 10. A few changes of clothes and shoes. Shoes will need to be water resistant. 11. Some type of boat to carry these things- canoes are easy and I know how to make several kinds. It rains a lot so I need to have top covers for the boat(s). Maybe I could hook two or three canoes together. Maybe a Huck Finn raft. 12. Superglue for cuts and lots of tape and pencils.
