Dick, I’m always looking for a way to make set-up and break down as short, and simple as possible. Now I don’t have to take two hours to set-up or break down unless I want too!!! As you know that here in the great northwest more than likely you will be doing it in the rain, and if at the beach a driving rain, so if need be I can run out between storm fronts. This way I don’t have to open the storage compartment in the driving rain and get it wet.
That would be:
1: Tripod
2: Rug
3: Empty: maybe fishing poles in the future?
4: Sewer hose, with all fittings and support
5: Extra Sewer hose, if needed for hook-up
