I remember those days.... a travel trailer & a storage locker in 
Bemidji with those tools & 'things for the homestead' we didn't want 
to keep hauling back and forth.

By 'things for the homestead' I had picked up (on sale) long before 
we moved a 200 amp electrical box, above ground swimming pool, gas 
operated water pump (along with the pool we had 1200 gal of 
firefighting water), water system pressure tank, wheel barrow, 
assorted hoses, etc.

Have fun Clint!
