Our trailer Ali, as in "Tin Can Alley", is an aluminum cargo trailer that we converted
into a travel trailer. Here's how we did it.

Updating the blog today (Canada Day 2020), I dis-covered a summary of our trip back to BC from Nova Scotia in the Fall, 2014. You might be interested.
A few days ago, Jennie & I moved into a small 'cottage'in Errington, just a short distance outside of Parksville, BC. We are still on Vancouver Island.
While the apartment's location was great - we walked everywhere - apartment living was just not for us - far too much noise.
We had been looking for a small house in the Comox Valley, but we were either too late or the place was not suitable for Jen.
Our new little 'cottage' is ideal. Level-entry for Jen with a very large deck to the side then grass to the trees.
More to come.
Doug & Jennie
