Tim has been working very hard getting our van ready for the big trip. He has fixed the side door (so we can get out), fixed the screen windows, fixed the broken blind, taken it to the shop for a tune-up, oil change, and tire usage appraisal, removed the middle seats, converted the back seat into a bed, and then yesterday he surprised me with this:

Our old radio/speakers were not working very well(i.e. we couldn't see the display, the front speakers were crackly...) and so now we have a new super nice radio/cd player/usb port/mp3 player port/new front speakers!  What a nice surprise!
