What about a tool box with wrenches, screwdrivers, hammer, duct tape, etc? That multitool might do, but it might not. How about some regular gloves, and also rubber gloves for dealing with the drain hose?


Fortunately you don't need to pack the kitchen sink, since you will be picking up one of those.

We head over to Osoyoos after pick up and there is a nice IGA store in town where I stock the empty refer in the Escape which has been chilled down on the trip over from Chilliwack.

I hope so, I don't see any Poutine on the list. Remember that you're coming to Canada eh.
