Happy hours in Mabel

Lately I fantasize about Hubby and I emptying our savings and running away from the children in Mabel. but for now, she's a perfect place for date night when we can't leave home.
So here's a mini tour of Mabel, our home away from home when we finally escape from Camp Rustown, with a mini fridge stocked with wine and some cool jazz on the iTunes.  She's tiny, but mighty.
  She has lots of seating and a table to eat at.  Or whatever. The table folds down, the cushions fold in,  and she makes a queen size bed.  Just behind and under the back cushions there is more storage - we keep pillows and blankets there. 
There are a lot of windows, and a skylight.  A/C and heating, too.

The mini fridge we will stock her with wine, some steaks or salmon to grill, and some fancy stinky cheese.  Hubby added these tiny tension rods in there to keep things from moving around while Mabel is in transit. 
There's a large pantry with our cooking utensils and other stuff.  All over the inside of her there are nooks and crannies to store things.  Plastic wine glasses, cards and dominoes, WiFi router, Texas flag. 
The kitchen is plenty big for cooking for two.  There is a cooktop and a sink above the fridge, and also more storage below.  We added some battery operated candles here and there.
Hubby installed a motion light near the step, in case we need to get up during the night.  There is also a port-a-potty so I won't have to leave the camper in the middle of the night to pee. We I have yet to take Mabel on her maiden voyage, but that doesn't mean we can't practice hanging out in her. I am looking forward to hitting the road with she and Hubby!
