I kept looking and when I finally got out the old camera and had to find some batteries for it (uses AA batteries), lo and behold the battery charger and other items I had been searching for were in the same location in their own secure little box! So, I am back in business with my little camera and happy. I am not waking up wondering where I didn't look and so have slept better now.
The three of us are back next to each other for the duration of our stay and we are happy.
A couple drove in with an older RT and we have spent time talking to them about their travels and plans. We have shared ideas about interior modifications which have made out lives easier and that is always a benefit when RTs are together.
Life is good.
